‘Less is more’ has been a fashion hack for the longest time now, and recently, we have been spotting this hack being considered by many of our Indian couture geniuses too. Less fabric and more craftsmanship is the way to go now, as demoed by our favourite designers and thus the emergence of the naked choli. Here’s how our Bollywood divas are working this latest choli trend...

Manish Malhotra showcased his summer couture '18 collection in Singapore with Kareena Kapoor Khan as the showstopper and for the event, he styled the actress in an elaborate silverish-grey lehenga with a barely-there choli, thus putting her chiselled abs on display, more than anything. Like we said, less is more...

Spotted at the Mijwan show this year, Sonakshi stunned in a gorgeous Manish Malhotra saree teamed with a choli embellished with beads! With the beads perfectly placed, the choli made for the highlight of her all-white look. We love the high neck though...

Spotted in a gorgeous sheer and embroidered saree by Malhotra, Jacqueline stunned at Sonam and Anand Ahuja’s wedding reception. Her saree blouse stole the show though. Featuring a sheer neck and a beautifully embroidered bodice with a daring neckline, she wowed.

Working a similar type of choli with the translucent fabric like Jacqueline’s, Isabelle stunned. Styled with a white tulle lehenga, Isabelle’s Manish Malhotra ensemble was completed with a choli featuring a sheer neckline and a shimmery bodice. Do not miss the trailing sleeveless though.

If anyone worked the naked choli with the most flair, it was Janhvi Kapoor at the recently-concluded Manish Malhotra fashion show. She was seen working a blue lehenga with sheer tulle embellished with silver embroidery. This, she teamed with a barely-there sheer and embroidered silver choli. So bold yet so classy, right?
Are you all set to work the naked choli trend yourself?
