Karan Johar turned heads at an event in Mumbai recently, where he showcased his signature style with a bold mix of high fashion and quirky accessories. Dressed in a chic ivory suit by Kanika Goyal, the filmmaker elevated his look with two stunning pieces that stole the spotlight: Schiaparelli's Telephone Dial brooch and Sanuj Birla 's melting Birkin bag . Johar’s choice of accessories was nothing short of show-stopping.
He wore the Schiaparelli Telephone Dial brooch, a striking hammered gold and enamel piece inspired by the legendary collaboration between designer Elsa Schiaparelli and surrealist artist Salvador Dalí. This avant-garde brooch, featuring a bold telephone dial, costs approximately ₹1,65,194 and is a nod to the timeless fusion of fashion and art. Schiaparelli’s unique take on surrealism was perfectly captured in the piece, adding a statement-making touch to Karan’s classic ensemble.
In another unexpected twist, Karan swapped his usual Birkin bags for a one-of-a-kind, Birkin Drip limited edition handbag by Delhi-based artist Sanuj Birla. This innovative creation features a Birkin bag that appears to be melting, almost as if it’s dripping into oblivion. Priced at ₹2,29,441, the bag has since sold out, cementing its place as an in-demand collectible.
The art piece perfectly matched Karan’s penchant for the bold and eccentric, making it a fitting accessory for the fashion-forward filmmaker. Known for his flair for extravagant fashion, Karan Johar neve.
