Karan Johar has often admitted that he is a fashion victim. The filmmaker-actor-host has even confessed that his drastic transformation and weight loss was a result of his obsession with clothes/brands. Apparently, Karan is so crazy about his looks that he gets upset when someone else beats him to sporting an outfit that he has bought before him. The Dharma Productions head honcho even revealed recently that he loves the airport, gym fashion looks and obsesses over these with his stylists. KJo hopes to someday dethrone Sonam Kapoor and become India's fashion icon.
When celebrities left for Isha Ambani's grand engagement function in Lake Como last year, Karan made headlines. The filmmaker carried as many as 10 suitcases for this outing of his. Everybody was shocked and wondered what was the actor prepping for. And now the Takht director has opened up about this viral picture.
In an interview with Neha Dhupia, Karan said, "I’ve to tell you the schedule was such that I was going to London was 3 days which was like oscillating between pre-fall, so I was confused between like winter wear I supposed to fall wear supposed to end of summer wear. It was a bit of trauma. Then I was going to this engagement for Isha and Anand and it was again, going to hotter warmer climate because it was going to Lake Como, which was warmer than London was, so then there were was, of course, black tie looks etc. And there were shoes which are always heavy and there are jacket options. You must have 3 options for every look because you never know what going to like work on that particular moment. So that, therefore, was the second one. Then I was going to Paris for Fashion Week, so I was going to Gucci show at Paris Fashion Week and then there were looks designed for that, so you must understand that you well it’s very easy for you guys to just blame me for those 10 suitcases."

The filmmaker continued, "And apart from that, there are causal day to day wear, there are undergarments, I carry a lot of underwear. Because I don’t have time to send them always to the laundry, so I just wear fresh. And I like to change 3 underwears a day because the problem is that I don’t like to be in one underwear all the time because it just makes me feel like my inners are suffering and I need to like always reinvent my inners. So, there are a lot of underwears, there a lot of socks, a lot of shoes. And that’s why there was so much required and that’s why those 10 suitcases. So please don’t make any kind of judgment on them, because you must understand and its better than emotional baggage, you actually carry baggage."
