In Vera Wang
Sonam threw us quite the curve ball with her outfit choice for the 2018 Filmfare Awards. Normally, we wait to see proper pictures from the event itself before we pass our verdict but, this time didn’t quite need to. We knew how we felt and nothing was going to change it.
In her effort to do something different from the rest (read: end up in a statement princess-ey ball gown) and wearing this look from the Fall 2017 Vera Wang collection, we think Ms. Kapoor went a bit too far this time. While her top half seemed headed to an Awards show, the bottom half felt like it was headed to the 10pm spin class!
I can take an offbeat look every now and then, but those pants just looked plain ridiculous. I think you get the gist that we hated this look on her.
What about you? Love it or hate it?

Lol. There is no winning with you guys, is there? She wears a full skirt, you’re bored. She wears a shorts suit, you hate on her for it. Pausing here to thank the good Lord that she dresses up for her own agenda and not yours, because God knows, she’s be a mess for the latter.
All hail! If anyone was to go by here- all they would see is raw mango raw mango and more raw mango.
the truth is Sonam is a mess in general. She never considers the event when dressing, only that it has to be a unique look and it has to be high-end fashion. The latter just makes her look ridiculous and odd more than half the times. Often times, she copies looks either directly from the runway or the editorials with very little of her own style. From where I stand, I see her as someone who has no sense of her own style – just that she must wear high-end fashion. I think Neha Duphia does a much better job of mixing things up and majority of the time delivers appropriate looks based on the event.
For the first two sentences and last one sentence I agree with you I agree with you
This girl has single handedly revolutionized the fashion scene of bollywood. She is the true Fashionista !!!
Ok Sonam,
Mocked you mean? She’s made all those elegantly dressed women do silly clothes in the name of wack fash!
I actually like it . The fits are great , it’s not her usual OTT! It’s fun and fashion is meant to be just that – FUN. Can’t tske oneself too seriously . Enjoy it and I feel for s change she is actually doing that
My thoughts exactly!!!!
She look ridiculous, their is time and place for everything . This outfit is not for award shows.
The shorts look ridiculous. They remind me of the matron in ‘Matilda’.
Then you have the sonamesque boob show to the point of defying gravity. I like the coat, top and embellishments but if anything irritated me more than the shorts it was the ear rings. The rather traditional pieces look totally out of place on a modern look.
Shoulders up she looks great… if she wore cigarette pants it would be a winner but the shorts with the ear rings look way to confused to me.
Ufff!!!Why Sonam why?! You show up in such a travesty just for the sake of standing apart?! You need to sort out your priorities!!
Ok, I think I have previously commented about her great legs, and that she should show them off now and then….Filmfare awards is Not one! That said If it weren’t for this event she would be rocking this look; waist up she looks amazing.
Hahahahahaha! This is hilarious!
The other celebs and photographers at the event may have had a very tough time keeping a straight face around her.
I think she looks fabulous and completely off beat.
She is a victim of her own fashionista status.
At first glance I was surprised by the shorts, but then I actually liked the change of pace. Would take this any day over princess-y gowns.
It’s a very disconnected look. I think if she would have done full pants that could have somewhat salvaged the look.
Really don’t think the shorts work. Agree that cigarette pants would have looked better and more Filmfare-appropriate.
One word :YIKES !!!!!
Those who are wondering why!?!
1: short pant wd dat beachy leg show
2: middle parted oiled hair
3: those earring !!
4: dint like dat shady eye make up wd nude lip as well
Actually nothing is working here … she might have illusionized ths event as VMA Award
Hate it! What was she even thinking when she wore this? She doesn’t look like she’s dressed up for an awards show at all. Horrible!!
I admire her guts to wear those shorts to filmfare awards no less. I wouldn’t wear them to go to the mall.
Its very Sonam, girl doesn’t exactly play by the rules. At first glance, it makes you go ‘Whaaaat’ but I really liked it more I see it. I liked how much fun she is having here…..her whole mantra is fashion is for my fun so this look gets an A for individuality and it indeed looked glamorous with high quality pictures.
I gree waist up beautiful waist down fugly! waist down should’ve been a white long flowing skirt. it would’vde looked fab!
LOVED it…. in BOLD!!!….Tired of seeing bad fitting gowns on Filmfare red carpets… for me this was a welcome change!! an edgy one – but a great one!
Thank god by weren’t shorts or hot shorts! Wouldn’t be so bad actually.. the suit was just going to be acceptable n then followed by these beach pants! Even a super short skirt would do
My main concern is- top is sitting too low. She is not a bust-y women n I am fearing for wardrobe malfunction! I am her size(from what we can see), that’s why saying so!
I never ever thought that I wud end up liking this look but the more I c the more I like
It’s so chic … very stylish runway style. When all actresses came in a gown she did smth different and I kinda liked this
Hats off to her for trying this different and risky outfit but having said that I have to admit that most times i feel like she is just a hanger for the clothes like a model who walked off the ramp and came to the event. Someone sonam the person gets lost in the clothes she is wearing and the clothes take over and makes her look like a fashion victim. I believe there has to be a 50/50.
Would have just loved it if it had been full length pants. She looks fabulous waist up (cleavage show notwithstanding) and her make-up is way better than the sometimes chalky white it usually is. Oh Sonam, Sonam! You know, na, that students above the 8th standards are allowed to wear full pants.
So many words in ur comment to convey this, one word is all it needs – whattey
Sonam could have worn this for something like movie promotion in Big Boss, no? This type of shorts, even Rihanna would not wear for a red carpet event. Lately, Sonam has more fashion fails than hits anyway.
Pants, what pants? Can’t look past the extra push up
My thoughts exactly! how can one wear capris to a red carpet? no matter how edgy the designer is.. and then pair them with those Indian jhumkas.. sorry sonam your matching things weirdly syndromeis not working!
Exactly! I hope this capris + jhumki atrocity will serve as Sonams “ emperor has no clothes” moment.
nothing wrong with the outfit just that its not meant for an award show!!
It’s definitely avant garde but remember the reaction when Marlene Deitrich first wore that tuxedo? At any rate I don’t get how this look is so worth of criticism, when that seriously ridiculous bow-ribbon-ruffle monstrosity that Kajol wore is called “wearing a look well” and “making it work”
I think I like the short pants , for one it is unexpected and fun, second I get the pharell williams “if you are happy ” vibes from it
Not feeling it.
She loves to grab attention even if she look clownish. After all she has to live upto her status as a fashionista.
With this look….. it seems her top half is going to an awards function and bottom half is headed to a rice paddy field. Whole look is ridiculously disconnected. She would have looked at herself in the mirror at least once right !!
LOl at rice paddy field.
I find the top half of her look STUNNING – her hair, make up & jewelry. In fact, I quite appreciate the modern outfit with the traditional jewelry and her make up is flawless. As for those pants, I don’t personally care for them. A slim, ankle length cigarette pant, IMO would have been far more impactful & made more sense, given the occasion. That being said, I respect her confidence and her continuous effort at doing something different in the realm of fashion; sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn’t but she’s resilient in the fashion game.
Someone put it aptly, she is a victim of her own fashionista status. We have to give her and Rhea credit for revolutionizing the way Bollywood actresses dress up. They raised the bar for sure. But I wish sonam would take a deep breath and dress up to feel comfortable. With this outfit, I wish her hair wasn’t so severe. And she needs to stop slapping on Aunty jewellery with everything. However, does this mean the Bermuda shorts are back?!?
I get it that people are tired of the same old princess gowns, but this can’t be the only outfit to counter that and stand out. This is just ridiculous… I wish someone would tell her that she is a hot mess…. and far FAR away from her self-proclaimed “fasion icon” status.
Too many elements are off.. the too tight cleavage squeezing top, the extra long sleeves that make her fingers disappear, the folded capri- length cropped pants..
bitter fitting sleeves and chest, a pencil skirt / cigarette pants – this would have been salvaged.. right now this is just too confusing!
She looks amazing, why criticize her for being a breath of fresh air in a crowd of followers of the trend. She is the trendsetter and others just blindly follow her and other fashionistas. Sonam looks hot and Gorg!!!
Hate – absolutely hate!
Not sure what she was planning to achieve with this look, but she made sure people discuss this look :):):)
Hate those pants. Rest make up and above pants she looks great.
She’s a try-hard – Kangana is effortless. Shame she doesn’t attend awards (for the fashion – I support her on principle).
loved it head to toe !! true fashionista !!
