Bollywood diva Kareena Kapoor Khan on Sunday brought down the curtains at the Lakme Fashion Week Summer/Resort 2019 looking her "sexy and powerful" best as designer duo Shantanu and Nikhil's muse.
The Lakme Absolute 'Ultimate' Finale took place in the lawns of the prestigious Sophia College here.
"The entire collection is about women power. It's for and about women taking the lead. The concept is completely different. I feel sexy and powerful in these clothes. And it's in Sophia College which is an iconic place. So it's special," Kareena told PTI.
The 38-year-old actor, who was dressed in an all-black tube gown with leather details, said for her looking powerful was more about inner strength and she loved the way Shantanu and Nikhil brought that emotion to their designs.

"Power dressing is about what you feel comfortable in. It is not about the drama around the outfit. It is the confidence and the power you have within which makes any look perfect. I believe in being simple and elegant and Shantanu and Nikhil's designs are a perfect blend of both," she said.
