Karan Johar has embraced a dark and dramatic aesthetic for his hosting role in The Traitors Season 2. The show's first three episodes premiered on August 13, 2023, and Karan shared images of three distinct outfits on Instagram, all designed by Manish Malhotra and styled by Eka Lakhani. Each ensemble showcases a unique personality while embracing a gothic glamour.
One of Karan's most striking looks features a custom black trench coat with leather lapels, double-breasted construction, and sharply tailored detailing. The sleeves are the standout feature, with split sections adorned with black satin ribbons that create a feather-like effect, giving the coat a crow-like winged appearance. The coat is paired with a fitted black satin shirt, which boasts a Mandarin-style split collar, pleated chest detailing, and cinched cuffs.
Flared high-waisted trousers finish the elongated silhouette. Karan accessorized with a gold chain featuring a ruby-set cross pendant, pearl-detailed leather gloves, and vintage-inspired brooches. The complete look was completed with oversized sunglasses and chunky leather boots, firmly placing him in statement-fashion territory.
