Sonam Kapoor to Zendaya, how the coquette aesthetic is dominating wardrobes

Girlhood is basking under the sun with girl math, girl dinners, and the girl-ification of nearly everything. Now, as we unabashedly embrace our femininity, the same can be seen in our clothes as the coquette aesthetic takes over the fashion world.

While the term ‘coquette’ traces its roots to French origins, where it referred to a ‘flirtatious woman’, the fashion trend embodies a delicate balance of femininity, playfulness, and romance. From the corseted silhouette of the Victorian era to the free-spirited bohemian vibes of the 1960s, and now, with bows taking center stage, the coquette style has continuously evolved while retaining its intrinsic allure. Notably, our favourite celebrities have also jumped on the bandwagon and given their unique twist to the aesthetic.

Let’s delve into some of their captivating ensembles

Sonam Kapoor exuded coquette charm in a black ankle-length dress, adorned with a dainty ribbon bow cinching her waist and ruffled sleeves, evoking the essence of the aesthetic. She playfully accessorised with a large pink bow in her half-up, half-down hairstyle, adding whimsy to her look.
