Minimal makeup and accessories played strong supporting roles

In Vogue India's 2023 cover story , Sara Ali Khan confessed to being an unapologetic non-conformist: “Whether it’s going to the airport with freshly washed hair and not doing my hair and make-up unless necessary, I really am who I am.” While her relationship with fashion keeps evolving, recently Khan shared how cold-weather dressing can be sassy and utilitarian all at once. Her latest Swiss outings seemed like a nod to her sunny demeanour and her quintessential no-makeup look.

For a coffee date, the Love Aaj Kal actress paired a standout silver Moncler vest with a bright yellow co-ord set and a matching cap. For an adventurous, high-altitude ride, the actor wore a floral, multicoloured René Derhy puffer jacket, completing the outfit with a black leather Versace fringe purse and a baby pink scarf. And a saffron bikini accompanied her hot tub day.



The restrained choice of accessories—ironically—turned out to be the highlight of her sartorial collage. Khan went for the off-duty look with an understated shawl and a Louis Vuitton tote bag. Her outfit details and makeup were leashed to a bare minimum—classic stud earrings, a colourful trucker hat, a pair of cat-eye sunglasses.

What we couldn’t miss: the simple white sneakers that seemed to go along with most of her holiday outfits. Like the bestie no girl can do without. From Vogue 's fashion desk: “Lose the Moncler-on-Moncler and anchor the silver puffer with an all-black base: thermal leggings, sleek turtleneck, stompy boots.

Add a balaclava or oversized hood for edge, and skip the sunnies for a matte goggle frame. Break the René Derhy floral puffer by pairing it with wide-leg cargo trousers in something muted, like slate grey. Pull hair into a sleek braid and add technical gloves.

The neon Faith Connexion co-ord gets deconstructed: wear the highlighter-yellow pants with a camel-toned shearling jacket and muted sneakers. Keep one punchy accessory: a coloured cap or sock, but not both,” says Vogue India's Fashion Associate, Manglien Gangte.
