Sonam Kapoor’s Iconic Dior Moment Included A Black Gajra And We’ll Tell You What It Means!
Sonam Kapoor wore the Dior's Faux Fur Coat from Cruise 2025 couture over her all-black ensemble.
Sonam Kapoor is the unapologetic, fashionable, stunning drama-packed diva that we need in our lives. With her recent Dior look, the style maven has hit it out of the park at the Paris Fashion Week with her sartorial excellence. An all-black outfit with multiple layers, a larger-than-life faux coat, with a black gajra is exactly the drama we need. The sheer allure of the ensemble mixed with the plush drama of the coat had just the right dose of Parisian chic with a dash of Bollywood drama.
Sonam Kapoor Shines In Dior
Styled by her sister Rhea Kapoor, Sonam Kapoor’s dress was from Dior’s spring/ summer collection in 2025. A sheer fabric ran down her strapless top to the knee-length skirt detailing. This all-black story was given a twist with a Dior’s Faux Fur Coat from Cruise 2025 couture. The open front, knee-length coat dripped glamour from each side and we wanted to be there to catch it.

Kapoor didn’t stop with the Dior drama there, the added full-length gloves along with long black boots gave us life. Accessorising the ensemble with effortless flair, Sonam opted for a sleek updo, letting her outfit take centre stage. A pair of subtle earrings and Dior’s signature heels completed the look without stealing focus. Her makeup was soft yet impactful—with luminous skin, bold brows, and a nude lip that exuded understated elegance.
But the thing that stole our eyes was the iconic inclusion of the black gajra.
History Of Black Gajra
The gajra, typically made from fresh flowers, has been an integral part of Indian culture for centuries. Worn by women in their hair, it symbolizes beauty, festivity, and femininity. The black gajra, though not rooted in historical customs, has evolved as a modern and edgy adaptation of this traditional accessory. Black flowers or black thread-wrapped faux flowers are used to craft these gajras, representing a departure from the traditional norms associated with purity and femininity.
