Kareena Kapoor Khan is not the first Bollywood celebrity you will look to for sari inspiration; and that is what makes her collection of sari styles so interesting. Unobvious and not ubiquitous, she balances her sari looks with a healthy mix of kurta, kaftans and lehenga styles when dressing in Indian wear that one tends to forget about her appearances in saris. But the actor has been behind some of the most unique looks that only she, with her nonchalance and confidence, could carry and make it look coveted. Kapoor Khan has also been an early adopter of trends that have since trickled and become a part of the public consciousness. With the festive look right around the corner, and an ever-present deficit of inspiration, here are our favourite sari looks of Kapoor Khan that are unexpected and unmatched.

Kapoor Khan wore this reissue of Tarun Tahiliani’s concept sari from the designer’s 2008 collection to an awards ceremony. A corset inundated with motifs inspired by a special metal inlay technique called Bidri inspired the embroidery on the corset made with nakshi and dabka detailing, and was worn over draped fabric with a matching metallic border.
