Next month, Lakmé Fashion Week will make a debut on the virtual runway. From October 21 to 25, LFW will present its season-fluid edition on a high-tech, interactive digital platform exclusively created for the event. The organisers promise a state-of-the-art showcase that will connect the artisans, designers, audience and e-commerce platforms.

On the ramp front, Kareena Kapoor has long been the Grand Finale show-stopper for many Lakmé Fashion Weeks. She first walked the ramp for Manish Malhotra in 2011 and since then has only made better, bolder statements every year. As Bebo turns 40 today, here’s her fashionable LFW journey through the years.

Kareena Kapoor debuts at LFW runway wearing Manish Malhotra couture in 2011.

Bebo made a sizzling appearance at LFW wearing Gaurav Gupta in 2015.

Kareena walked in Sabysachi’s bridal wear at LFW 2016 finale, looking effortless and elegant even with her baby bump.

In 2017, the mom-to-be Kareena closed the Grand Finale show for Anita Dongre.

Kareena looked ravishing in an all-black corset gown by Anamika Khanna in 2018.

Kapoor closed LFW Winter-Resort 2019 for Shantanu & Nikhil.

Black seems to be Bebo’s favourite on fashion runways. She concluded LFW’s Spring-Summer’19 edition for Gauri & Nainika in a gorgeous black gown.

Lakmé Fashion Week, in February 2020, saw Kapoor don a sculpted emerald green gown by Amit Aggarwal.
