What made Sonam Kapoor's white gown for King Charles III's Coronation so special? Details here

Bollywood actress Sonam Kapoor made a stunning appearance at King Charles III's Coronation Concert, held on May 6, 2023, at Westminster Abbey in London. The star-studded event saw international celebrities such as Lionel Richie, Katy Perry, and more in attendance. Sonam's fashion statement for the night made headlines, with the actress sporting a beautiful ten feet gown designed by Indian designer Anamika Khanna and London-based designer Emilia Wickstead.

The exquisite gown showcased a calico-inspired pattern, which was a collaboration between the two designers. The inspiration for the pattern came from the designs exchanged between India and the United Kingdom in the 17th and 18th centuries. Sonam's off-shoulder gown with a flared skirt and a figure-hugging bodice was a show-stopper. 

The voluminous skirt added a regal touch to her overall look. She left her hair loose with a sleek side partition and light waves. She accessorized her look with silver studded danglers. Sharing the pictures on her social media handle, Sonam wrote, "Historic moments call for fashion moments. I'm honored to mark the unforgettable occasion of the #Coronationconcert by wearing the collaborative vision of two of the most incredible designers from the two countries I'm lucky to call home..@anamikakhanna.in @emiliawickstead."

The gown worn by Sonam Kapoor was a testament to the exchange of designs between the two nations, and the beauty that can be created when two different cultures come together. Her stunning gown, with its intricate pattern and regal flair, left a lasting impression on the audience. 

Sonam Kapoor was the only Indian celebrity present at the coronation concert, making her appearance all the more special. The event marked a spiritual, political, and regal reunion as King Charles III was crowned as the monarch of the United Kingdom.
