Kareena was felicitated at the opening of a film festival dedicated to all her movie in the past 25 years where she was seen wearing a vintage black Benarasi sari re-designed by Amit Aggarwal. You’ll remember Mr. Aggarwal caught some flak with the rangkat sari that was worn by Priyanka. This time though the designer ditched the cutting and instead used pleats and stitching to create a drape. I, for one, do applaud the effort.
Coming to Kareena, given the contemporary gown style drape, the jewellery (Uncut by Aditi Jain) here felt a bit too traditional and clashed. But, that’s a minor gripe. Ms. Kapoor looked great.
P.S. I did ask on Rhea’s handle what will happen to this restored sari now that the event is over. If I get a reply, I will update this post. I would hate to see another beautiful vintage sari being used as a one time wear and forgotten.
