In an interaction with Hindustan Times, we also asked Kriti Sanon a few questions about the collection, her winter style preferences and how she approaches dressing for the colder months. What drew me to this campaign was how beautifully it reflects the experience of winter. For me, winter is often about the simple, everyday moments that make the season special, whether it’s slowing down at home, spending time with friends, or taking a moment to enjoy the things you love. I love that the campaign celebrates these moments while showing how the soft comfort and warmth of Fleece can be a part of them, no matter where the day takes you. It feels natural, relatable, and very true to my own experiences of the winter season. The campaign beautifully captures finding joy in little things. Winter has a way of making you slow down and appreciate moments you might otherwise rush through. Whether I’m curled up at home, exploring a place I love, or catching up with friends, there’s a certain feeling of comfort that comes with the season. Comfort is definitely more important to me now than it used to be, but I don’t want to compromise on style. That’s why I gravitate towards pieces that are versatile and easy to wear in different ways. Especially in winter, I love clothing that can adapt to different moments throughout the day. For me, great style is really about feeling comfortable, confident and completely yourself. The best winter outfits are the ones that feel comfortable, confident and authentic to who you are. If I’m not comfortable, I’m probably not going to enjoy wearing something for very long. Once I have that covered, I like to bring in my personal style through layering, proportions and how I put different pieces together. The goal is always to look effortless rather than overly styled. I’m someone who relies on a few trusted essentials during winter. A great pair of denims, warm inners, oversized sweaters, comfortable jackets and versatile layers are always at the top of my list. I’m also very drawn to soft, cosy layers that feel just as comfortable at home as they do when you’re stepping out. The pieces I end up wearing the most are always the ones that are easy, comfortable and effortless to style in different ways.
Because they look good, but because they fit so seamlessly into my everyday life, over the years, I’ve realised that the best pieces in my wardrobe are the ones I keep coming back to, not just.
