Celebrities Replace Dupattas With Glamorous Capes In Ethnicwear
Several celebrities are wearing capes with traditional Indian outfits.
They are using capes instead of dupattas.
A dupatta is a long piece of fabric often worn with lehengas.
Capes can create a similarly dramatic look.
They may also be easier to wear because they do not need as many pins.
Mrunal Thakur chose a floral cape with a champagne-colored lehenga.
Khushi Kapoor and Kriti Sanon wore sheer, sparkly cape styles.
Bhumi Pednekar, Alaya F, and Radhika Madan also tried different cape designs.
The trend combines festive clothing with a modern fashion style.
Mrunal Thakur paired a champagne-toned lehenga with a flowing floral cape.
Shanaya Kapoor wore a glittering lehenga with a floor-length cape resembling a royal train.
Khushi Kapoor replaced a dupatta with a sheer, crystal-fringed cape fastened at the neck.
Kriti Sanon styled a shimmering lehenga with a sheer, wing-like cape.
Bhumi Pednekar, Alaya F, and Radhika Madan also chose dramatic capes over traditional dupattas.
