Inside Karan Johar’s Traitors wardrobe: Blood all over, crow trench, roses on black

The Traitors reality show, produced by Karan Johar, features the filmmaker wearing extravagant and campy outfits throughout its second season. Style consultant Eka Lakhani, who has worked with Johar on various projects, explains that Johar's wardrobe in Traitors is meant to contrast with his usual personas, allowing him to fully embody the character he plays on the show.

Eka notes that Johar's wardrobe includes a black robe with roses, a black overcoat with a crow-feather cape, and a scene where all his roses are gone, replaced by a single large rose. Another notable look features blood-red splatter on his white robe, representing a murder in the episode.

Eka emphasizes that the shocking and polarizing nature of Karan's looks is intentional, designed to generate attention and discussion about the show. With a background in cinema and styling for filmmakers like Mani Ratnam and Karan Johar, Lakhani brings a unique perspective to creating these distinctive outfits that reflect the world of Traitors.
