Known for her eclectic, often maximalist fashion choices, the producer opted for a sleek, monochromatic black ensemble in a new video shared by a paparazzo on Instagram on April 5, exemplifying the ‘less is more‘ approach.
Ekta Kapoor’s new look
Ekta Kapoor stepped out in a flowing all-black midi dress featuring a subtle V-neckline and sheer panelling at the hem. Keeping the accessories grounded, she wore her signature stack of bracelets and rings, but balanced the look with soft, voluminous waves and a fresh, dewy makeup.
The outfit moved away from the heavy layering and complex drapes Ekta has frequently favoured in the past, leaning instead into a more polished, streamlined aesthetic.
