Mira Kapoor wears a peachy pink sari that spotlights delicate lace and intricate embroidery

Mira Rajput Kapoor’s style has always been sensual and sultry with a touch of old-school elegance. The beauty entrepreneur doesn’t hold back from slipping into form-fitted mini dresses as easily as classic weaves with a backless blouse. Recently, Rajput Kapoor made a case for a seemingly featherlight sari by Roseroom By Isha Jajodia.

In a dreamy peach shade, her drape is made using delicate lace. Fashion’s long-standing affair with versatile floral fabrication has continued for generations; while lace has taken varied forms over decades, it has never managed to grow out of its traditional connotations. We often associate lace with Victorian wedding dresses. But, if modern couture collections and street style are anything to go by, the time-honoured openwork has got an edgy rejig with its motifs, and a makeover with contemporary silhouettes. Trendsetters and tastemakers have embraced it in all its glory, and it just so happens, Rajput Kapoor has too. For a recent outing, she draped herself in a romantic pastel lace sari punctuated with monotone thread embroidery. It was paired with a plunging v-neckline sleeveless blouse. She gave the predictable drape a rain check, and instead put the pallu across the waist and over her arms, adding a chic twist.
