Karishma Kohli embraces her vitiligo, and owns it like a queen at her ice-factory wedding

It was a decade ago when Karishma discovered the first patch of her vitiligo. In the beginning, she tried to hide it, but later on, she learned to own it. And she surely shelled out inspiration with her wedding look, wherein she proudly embraced what she owned, and the power in it was enough to brighten up every eye out there. Despite being a Sikh, Karishma wanted to wear a white gown at her wedding, and she did the same. For her day, she slipped into a beautiful white gown from the brand, Karleo. She wanted something that wouldn’t hide her vitiligo completely, nor did she want to show it completely, and her dress did proper justice to her wish.
