Decoding Katrina’s Saree Style
Bollywood’s leading lady Katrina Kaif has been in the industry for the better part of two decades, and she has been ruling the box office as well as millions of hearts since a long, long time. She recently broke several hearts by tying the knot with actor Vicki Kaushal, and her gorgeous wedding looks made us appreciate just how stunning Katrina looks in Indian ethnic clothes. Well someone as gorgeous as her would look stellar in any outfit, but nothing compares to the grace of a well-draped saree.
So we decided to revisit some of Katrina’s recent saree-clad looks, and stumbled upon her love for oversized earrings. A saree can have many avatars - it can be glamorous, sexy, bold, coy, formal or even casual, and styling the look involves not just the right saree but also the accessories that go with it.
In this photo that she posted for Diwali, Katrina looked no less than a patakha herself. Clad in a bright pink saree with golden border, it was a simple and sober look with light makeup. But to keep things festive, she wore oversized chandbalis that took the look to a whole new level of gorgeousness.
Katrina upped her saree game with this stunning rust orange number. The saree itself is made of net with multi colored bootis all over and a gorgeous gota border. But the eye-catcher here is the heavily-embroidered blouse with long sleeves in a floral pattern. Katrina completed this look with large dangling earrings in the shade of green and red. When a saree is too dressy by itself, it helps to keep the look minimal with just a pair of oversized earrings. Adding too many competing elements is a recipe for disaster.
In this quintessential Bollywood heroine look straight from a Yash Raj movie, Katrina is seen in a breezy powder blue plain chiffon saree with no embellishments or border and a minimal blouse with a floral pattern. This look is very summer-friendly and soothing to the eyes. She has paired this very plain saree with dangling oxidised silver earrings, bangles and rings that go beautifully with the blue shade and the overall summer-y aesthetic of the look.
Katrina looks fabulous in any colour or shade but if we had to pick one colour that suits her the most then we would go with this baby pink shade. This is a more party-ready look with a shimmery golden, silver and copper coloured border and blouse. Katrina is clearly a fan of a neat and uncluttered look and here again she has kept it simple with large dangling earrings in a contrasting colour, a bracelet and a ring.
Florals never go out of style, and they work particularly well when you want to exude a warm and feminine image. Here Katrina is looking ravishing in a lovely baby pink saree with floral embellishments all over, yet again keeping the overall look neat and classy with straight, open hair, large dangling earrings, and two bracelets.
