<span class=normal>Karisma Kapoor may have given the silver screen a miss these last few years, but she cannot escape the public gaze as she continues to redefine and grow her sense of style.

To a time of celluloid innocence, a time of histrionics and performance but little style. A time when a teenaged Karisma Kapoor, daughter of the first family of stardom, broke through familial taboos of girls joining the industry and stepped into roles that belied her age.

Like a sartorial shooting star, blazing a fashion statement all her own. Earlier, she had bustle into the room, immediately upping the energy quotient, her frail shoulders hung with a huge Channel day bag. Her Victoria Beckham jeans molded a perfect derriere while the black Gap T-shirt remained her statement against a head-to-toe designer look. Fendi leather encircled her perfect waist.<BR><BR> <br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>Courtesy: <a href=https://verveonline.com/ target=_blank>Verveonline</a></span><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>
