Designer Ken Ferns Opens up on Shehnaaz Gill’s amazing style transformation after Bigg Boss 13; “Shehnaaz’s transformation has been a milestone, it’s been magical”

Singer-actress Shehnaaz Gill‘s amazing style transformation after her stint in Bigg Boss 13 came as a surprise to fans. Her transformation has been getting immense love from audience. Designer and stylist Ken Ferns, who’s a very good friend of Shehnaaz Gill, played a major role in it. He styled Shehnaaz not just for the show, but also her post show appearances and music videos.

In a recent interaction with mid-day.com, Ken

revealed what worked for her. Speaking about how did he planned those looks for her, Ken quoted saying, “Shehnaaz’s transformation has been a milestone, it’s been magical. The transformation begins from within, when you evolve personally and intellectually. That’s what happened and it was then easy for me to put on layers and give it a different physical outlook. She naturally lost a good amount of weight. In the back of her head she kept thinking ‘pehle mujhe moti kehte the’. So she wanted to aim and achieve something. The drive is what got her fit and she was then ready for some magic dust to be sprinkled on her by me. We just happened to become great buddies without any agenda. We enjoyed each other’s company and laughed about anything and anyone around us. Then we decided to work together and every outfit bloomed into something new and we were excited to try new looks. She trusts my vision and is open to experimenting. She understands fashion and style and does self-study by looking at international pop stars. She is becoming aware of things and is ready to adapt.”

Talking about the challenges he faced while planning these looks, the designer said, “There were no challenges as such just that she went from size XL to XS so I had to alter all my outfits, refigure my shopping list. She’s a natural in front of the camera. I’m always there to get the right stance, the right shoulder shrug. That’s because of my expertise to give her that little finesse as and when required.”

Shehnaaz was best known for her Indian looks on Bigg Boss, when asked him how did he convince her to go glam, Ken said, “She was known to be the Punjabi kudi and that was the first look we gave her on Bigg Boss. While planning her looks for the show, she sent me voice notes from Chandigarh. She didn’t know who I was, I didn’t know who she was. The voice notes were so funny and I still tell her she was a comedy queen. Finally, when we met, we decided to give her an ivory plain Jane Punjabi suit, which I didn’t expect to go viral. It’s not about what you wear, it’s about who you are. She nailed it! When she first went all glam her reaction was, ‘Oh god, what is this?’ But she doesn’t get into my zone because she trusts me. That’s the beauty of an artiste to be able to fit into characters and transformations. She does it with immense enthusiasm.”
