Sonam Kapoor is looking her chicest in Aisha. We deconstruct her look in the forthcoming film

MUMBAI MIRROR; June 19, 2010

The film: Aisha. The look: “Young, stylish upper class Delhi girl who is not a fashion victim,” says Pernia Qureshi, the stylist. “Someone who just wakes up beautiful,” she says. And that someone is Sonam Kapoor who gets our vote as the most stylish girl in the business of acting.

Whether on screen or on the red carpet, Sonam always manages to make heads turn with her delicious mix of classic and young, hip and haute. “I know my body. I know what my problem areas are, I know what to hide, what to reveal,” says Sonam.

As a girl who takes her fashion seriously, Sonam likes to believe she has pretty defined personal style. “I like all things classic and chic, especially off screen where I like a dash of fun, a twist to anything I am wearing,” she says. “I love old clothes, which I can mix with high street or dress up something muted with interesting accessories.” And while she thinks “no one understands Indian women better than Manish Malhotra”, she also swears by her Chanels, and her Alexander Wangs.

“It is not just about wearing brands, it is about how you put the look together,” says Sonam.

With a little help of our style icon of the season, we deconstruct Sonam’s look in the film.
