A compelling exuberance, both on-screen and off-screen is just how Samantha Ruth Prabhu rolls. Her fine film repertoire is aptly complimented by a fine fashion arsenal. Safe to say, she is innately sartorial and has mastered a rare knack to blend comfort with all that’s in vogue. Flipping moods with a myriad of styles, a signature silent aplomb, and a strong but subtle beauty game accompany. She experiments with risque cuts, bold silhouettes, and unusual hues in equal fervor with the classics. Which is why she is a designer’s muse and a stylist’s dream as well. Her latest release, Yashoda saw her pull off an infinitely chic pantsuit moment – a lone promotional style owing to her health constraints following a recent diagnosis of the autoimmune disease, myositis. Her stylist, Pallavi Singh grasped Samantha’s thriving vibe of minimal chicness to the hilt and channeled an all-black-everything bespectacled vibe.
A wardrobe must-have, the ubiquitous pantsuit is versatile and also doubles up as a statement-making garment, being casual to formal with minimal effort. With its classic allure in sync with its trans-seasonality, here’s a closer look at how Samantha nailed her pantsuit moment.
