She is a woman who speaks from her
heart and is never scared of criticism for her honest views, but when
it comes to fashion, actress Kalki Koechlin says she gets conscious
about her choices whenever she steps out for public eye.
When IANS asked her if she is conscious about her look whenever she
steps out, Kalki said: "It depends but if I am going to step out for
public eye, of course I am conscious.
"We all have different occasions. When we are going for dinner, we want
to dress up and that's the good thing because it helps you in choosing
what you like and also helps you to know what will look good on you."
Kalki looked enigmatic as she closed the show for Nikita Mhaisalkar
adorning an eclectic ensemble from her new Winter/Festive 2017 line
christened as SERIF at day three of Lakme Fashion Week (LFW) Winter/
Festive 2017.
Exploring the scope for luxe knitwear, the collection draws heavily
from outerwear staples. Sweaters, cloaks, coats and trenches in
custom-made flat knits and ribs create abstract and amorphous shapes.
A modern, urban derivation of the traditional baadla-taar embellishment
technique highlights the pieces.
The actress was looking no less than an angelic diva in white outfit.
"I am somebody who has to mould myself into different kinds of outfits
for red carpets and other occasions. I did film like 'Zindagi Na Milegi
Dobara' where I had seven inches heel, so I think fashion for me is all
about personality and as an actor we have very eclectic personality.
"At time we need to be practical and at time, we need to look
glamourous and this is my glamourous avatar," said the "Margarita, with
a Straw" star.
Mhaisalkar was happy to have Kalki as the showstopper.
"I never consider everybody else. I have seen her play recently and the
kind of stuff she is doing is amazing. I always wanted someone who will
represent my brand in her own way. For me, it is important that
whosoever is representing my collection, should have a voice that is
socially accepted. She speaks from her mind and she is one of the
strongest girl on the block," said the designer.
