The young, pretty actress has proved that she is versatile by designing her clothing line named Alia for the online shopping site Jabong.
Alia Bhatt gives the credit to Karan Johar for bringing out the love for fashion within her, “I didn’t really understand clothes while I was overweight. When I was auditioning for ‘Student…’ I lost weight and because my character Shanaya was so into dressing up and fashion…because of that I kind of got into loving fashion.”
She says the director always helps her, even if she has worn the wrong outfit on a day to day basis, and his tips and advice have helped her a lot. “Basically, Karan (Johar) has a great influence on that and he has a great fashion sense. He tells me when I am wrongly dressed and when I am doing good.”
Alia Bhatt looks up to designer Manish Malhotra and finds him very inspirational, “I definitely look up to Manish and also because I had the privilege of working with him in my first film. Even today, he is very enthusiastic about his work; he changes his clothes and collections with time. He is always zingy and excited,” Alia said.
“Even as a stylist in movies, he still always inspires and he is excited to do something new and fresh. So, I definitely look up to Manish for his attitude and beautiful clothes,” she adds.
