Ever since she made her debut with Heropanti in 2014, Kriti Sanon has proven her credentials as a performer and a celebrity with a distinct sense of style. While her go-to style is casual and comfortable, the Mimi actress is known to serve chic eveningwear and traditional wear looks on the reg.

Speaking of traditional wear, the actress boasts of a wide and varied wardrobe, with experimental silhouettes and fusion styles being her go-to for her red-carpet appearances, including saris and lehengas. Something that sets apart her choices are the blouses she pairs with the Indian wear staples.

With wedding season still in full swing, we figured we’ll take a deep dive into her wardrobe to narrow down her favourite blouse styles to give you some style inspiration.

Sweetheart neckline blouse

A classic style, the sweetheart neckline is the perfect mix of structural and romantic. The wide heart-shaped neckline softens a sharp jawline and looks super elegant and stylish. Sanon can be spotted wearing variations of the style multiple times.

Strapless blouse

Sanon is a fan of showing off her long, graceful neck and shoulders with strapless blouses. The actress frequently goes for strapless blouses to modernise her sari choices. Go for this style if you want to elongate your neck and make your shoulders look wider.

Multi-strap blouse

While she loves a strapless blouse, the actress is also a big believer in experimenting with different styles of straps. Take, for instance, the Arpita Mehta ensemble she wore for a Diwali party in 2018. The actress’ bralette blouse was made instantly memorable with its thin straps and mirrorwork.

Peplum-style long blouse

Perfect to be paired with a sari or lehenga, Sanon’s long, peplum-style blouse is a departure from her usual favourites that feature plunging necklines and thin straps. The choli-style blouse brought all the attention to the actress’ waist and is a perfect choice for when you want to opt for something slightly different.

Off-shoulder blouse

We’ve established that Sanon’s wardrobe is a masterclass in how to give a modern spin to traditional wear and her choice of outfit for a close friend’s wedding reception was no different. The actress picked an emerald Zara Umrigar lehenga paired with an off-shoulder blouse with floral bead and sequin work. The style is immensely flattering and eye-catching at the same time.
