Photos: Shahid Kapoor’s five most stylish looks to copy on Diwali

Actor Shahid Kapoor’s status as one of India’s most stylish men can never be questioned. From hip hop to hipster to haute couture, Shahid shows that he can pull off pretty much whatever sartorial choices come his way. Let him inspire you as you dress for Diwali 2017.

You do not want to show up at a Diwali party in your trusty denim and find everyone dressed to the nines or experimenting with asymmetrical kurtas or killing it in bandhgalas. To make sure you sartorially rise to the occasion and attend Diwali soirees looking suave, take inspiration from one of the most stylish guys we know: Actor Shahid Kapoor.

The 36-year-old Rangoon hunk is the perfect example of what a 21st century man should look like on festive occasions. Diwali is on Thursday, so stop wasting time faffing about with your clothes, and get inspired by Shahid’s functional-yet-timeless ensembles, from suit kurta with pants to printed kurta with black churidar.

Take a look at Shahid’s best all-black outfits with a desi twist to look sharp for all of the festivities. All photos courtesy Shahid Kapoor’s Instagram.

In June, 2017, Shahid wore a crisp black achkan from Tisa Studio. His black achkan was teamed with a contrasting white churidar. He stepped into a pair of glossy black formal shoes and accessorised it further with a black pocket square and a black watch.
