Favorite cape style inspirations from designer Anamika Khanna's collection

Hey my amazing family of chic world, while I am working on a monsoon related post for you all, I decided to share some of my favorite ethnic cape styles from Anamika Khanna’s latest bridal collection and celebrity style diaries.

Capes are those versatile pieces of clothing that just compliments almost every other element of the wardrobe. This sleeveless hero of the layering world has got a makeover lately and has taken the Indian fashion industry by storm. From cropped capes over a saree, the latest upgrades of it are more experimental including that of sparkles, intricate embroidery designs and floor sweeping lengths.

While capes make everything look so good, the latest designs from the Bridal collection of famous designer Anamika Khanna, has given me some major ethnic fashion goals. This Cape goddess has always been known for blending traditional drapes and age old embroideries with western contemporary styles. She is a personal favorite of celebrities like Sonam Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor and Jacqueline Fernandez to name a few. Remember Sonam Kapoor’s pink cape saree at Cannes that just gave us amazeballs!

So jump on the bandwagon with my most favorite style inspirations from her couture, listed down!

Boho vibes

A mustard yellow wide leg pants and bralette dress with flower embroidery paired with full length red cape. If you feel bralette gets a little OTT, go for a crop length blouse with this one. Also capes with this much flare gets tricky to handle, suggest to customize it in more fitted one.

Royal

I was in love with this look, head over heels, the moment my retina registered it. Vaani Kapoor looks mesmerizing in this classic ensemble from the designer’s Bridal Collection 2017. It’s a printed dress in draped hem style with an embroidered trail cape.

All white

This subtle yet classy ensemble is so appealing in its approach. The lace bordered cape adds an edge to the satin lehenga with sequin boat neck blouse.

Jacket Gown

Not exactly a cape but a floor sweeping jacket gown with golden and flower embroidery from the designer’s couture. This is so romantic and royal in its feel. Perfect to rock in your next family wedding reception.
