Bazaar talks to Sonam Kapoor, the newest face of IWC Schaffhausen watches
2017 HAS ALREADY TURNED OUT TO BE A STELLAR YEAR FOR SONAM KAPOOR. Just days after winning the Filmfare Critics Award for Best Actress in January for Neerja, she was announced as the face of luxury watch brand IWC Schaffhausen. While both are no doubt important, the latter is significant for another reason—it’s the first time the 149-year-old Swiss watchmaker, whose brand friends include Naomie Harris, Rosamund Pike, Adriana Lima, and Olga Kurylenko to name a few, has taken on an ambassador from the Indian subcontinent. Bazaar caught up with the actor at the Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie in Geneva, to talk about the association, watches, and all things style.
