Khushi Kapoor’s corset and cargos combo proves her cool-girl status

Khushi Kapoor, with her baggy pants, shoulder bags, and half-zip sweaters, has always epitomised Gen-Z style. Somehow, she always manages to toe the line between casual and glamorous with her outfits—and her recent look, which involved baggy cargo pants and a corset top, is a masterclass in how to do so. Styled by Mohit Rai, the actress was photographed wearing a sage green corset from Munique, a brand that prides itself on creating “urban couture”. She paired the corset with baggy cargo pants from Polite Society and wore a pair of beige stilettos to complement the look. Her styling was minimal as she opted for stacked bracelets, matte makeup, a nude lip, and freshly blown-out hair to finish the look off.

The death of the late, great Vivienne Westwood and the popularity of Regency-era drama Bridgerton were some of the many factors that led to the corset’s sudden, post-pandemic popularity. But, really, the corset’s staying power lies in its versatility, and how easily a corset look can go from dressed-up to dressed-down with appropriate styling. And Kapoor’s outfit—with its baggy pants, minimal jewellery, and pop of colour—is what Gen-Z wardrobes are made of.
