Suitings for Soirée
Exuding power, power suits have gained immense popularity in recent times and well we blame their edgy persona for it. And always keeping one handy in her wardrobe, Rhea Kapoor’s choice of striped suit by designer Gareth Pugh is the ultimate ‘girl boss’ staple. Everything from the padded shoulders, pinstriped wool-blend bustier top to the wide-legged pants, this look deserves a ten on ten and we’d recommend you to recreate one this Women’s day for sure. It is the ultimate workwear design.

Lehenga-Jacket
Replacing backless choli with a stunning royal-blue jacket, Rhea Kapoor’s twist to the classic lehenga is our favourite. The design as seen on the multi-hyphenate is pulled out from the shelves of designer duo Abu Jani And Sandeep Khosla. A great way to mix two classic categories together, so now you know the drill to experiment with your lehengas, the next time you dress up for a wedding. PS we love the colour pairings here.

The Swagger Saree
The swagger saree, as we’d like to call this look on Rhea Kapoor confirms that vintage is the new cool. Designed as a part of Rhea and Sonam’s ‘The Indian princess’ collection for their brand Rheson, the line-up takes the traditional saree on a fun spin. Rhea’s idea of curating a palazzo and jumpsuit saree made way for cooler designs in the festive wear department, giving a modern upgrade to Indian fashion’s staple silhouette. A great style hack to follow up, you can drape your saree in a hundred ways or opt for accessories like a corset belt, boots or even a mix of oxidised jewels and give your own little spin to the saree.

Prints That Speak
Channelise your power through the prints you choose to wear. Something that Rhea’s sartorial decisions always root for, then be it her love lehenga by Abu Jani And Sandeep Khosla, that she paired with a bomber jacket in the shade red, or her collaborative effort with friend and designer Masaba Gupta to put a different lens to the menswear staple–checks and plaids, which she amalgamated with sarees and flowers. Rhea talks about the importance of choosing the right print that narrates a tale. A style hack you can use to wear thy power.

Layer Lover
Another way to indulge in power dressing is to layer utmost with oversized blazers or overcoats. Just like Rhea, have fun with a classic white shirt for the starters. And the key to spicing up your regular formals is to play around with prints. As styled by Rhea, you can add more elements to your basic white shirt with layers of funky overcoats, solid coloured vests or even a quirky pair of pants. Rhea’s ensemble presents the right ingredients to curate a killer look. And in case layering seems like a task that you’d like to keep your distance from, then you can opt for chunky jewellery or fancy heels to sprinkle some sass to a regular fit.

Unapologetic, real and raw, dress up as the real you this Women’s Day. Lace-up thy sneakers, pull up your favourite jeans or just dress up to have fun, make this Women’s Day all about your true self, which indeed is the power you need to wear. Right Rhea?
