Zeenat Aman Declutters Closet, Embraces Simplicity Over Designer Accessories
Veteran Bollywood icon Zeenat Aman spent her weekend cleaning out her closet and reflected on her evolving fashion choices. Taking to Instagram, she shared a glimpse of her collection, revealing that her once-coveted designer purses have mostly been pushed to the back of her wardrobe.
Instead of sharing “outfit of the day” pictures, as her children suggested, Zeenat found more joy in organizing her accessories. She expressed her preference for shopping at boutiques and exhibitions over high-end brands, stating that she keeps her outfits simple so she can let her accessories stand out.
A self-proclaimed lover of beach vacations, Zeenat admitted to having a weakness for straw hats, calling them both stylish and practical. She also revealed her attachment to sunglasses, describing them as her “security blanket” and highlighting her most-used pairs from Burberry, Prada, and Gucci.
Scarves are another staple in her collection, serving multiple purposes—adding flair to an outfit, protecting her hair, or shielding her face from dust. Her collection includes pieces from markets in Cape Town, London, Taiwan, and India.
When it comes to jewelry, Zeenat prefers timeless elegance, opting for diamonds and pearls as her go-to statement pieces. However, her biggest style shift has been in handbags. Once a fan of luxury purses, she now favors large, comfortable *jholas* and baskets that accommodate all her essentials. She shared that two of her favorite bags were purchased from Nila in Jaipur while filming *The Royals* last year.
Signing off, Zeenat invited her followers to share their favorite accessories and what makes them special.
