She commented, “You guys, how beautiful are my clothes? They’ve all been designed by a local designer. I will get you his name, but everything is so spectacular. Look at the details. I mean, everything is so beautiful.”
Expressing her admiration for the outfit, Khloe added, “I love this pop-pink number. Just the vibrancy, the detail, the intricacy of it. It’s to die for.”
Khloe also discussed the complexity of managing her attire without assistance, saying, “Okay, well! How do you take all this stuff off when you don’t have help? I didn’t think that through. Is this not insane?” She further mentioned, “This is a Lorraine. Well, all of my jewellery is Lorraine Schwartz. It’s all borrowed. A girl doesn’t own this stuff, but a diamond in the middle of my head.”
The video prompted varied reactions online, with many expressing surprise at Khloe’s description of Manish Malhotra. One user pointed out, “Did you all know Khloe Kardashian called Manish Malhotra ‘my local designer’? It must have been highlighted to her team, and then she changed it to ‘world-renowned’.” Another user commented, “Khloe Kardashian is saying her lehenga for the Ambani wedding is made by a ‘local designer’ like ma’am, and it is taking me out.”
A third user remarked, “Khloe calling Manish ‘a local designer’ shows how little idea they have of India and how least bothered they are. The same reason why these people don’t deserve even an ounce of hype they’re getting just because they’re attending the wedding.” Another simply posted, “Did Khloe Kardashian just call Manish Malhotra a local designer?!”
The incident has sparked conversations about cultural awareness and appreciation, with many urging celebrities to educate themselves about the artists and designers they collaborate with, especially when attending significant cultural events.
