Khushi Kapoor and Cava Launch Soft Serve Athleisure Collection
Actor Khushi Kapoor has collaborated with athleisure brand Cava to create Soft Serve, a collection that blends her personal fashion aesthetic with Cava’s focus on performance, comfort and versatility.
The collaboration was developed around the idea of creating athleisure that works both during workouts and beyond them. Khushi was closely involved throughout the design process, contributing to the silhouettes, colours, fits and finer details to ensure the pieces reflected her personal style and everyday wardrobe.
At the centre of Soft Serve is the philosophy “Soft does not mean Weak”, exploring the balance between softness and strength, femininity and confidence, and comfort and performance. Inspired by the concept of Yin and Yang, the collection encourages women to embrace both sides without having to choose between them.
“I’ve always wanted my wardrobe to feel effortless, but that doesn’t mean compromising on how a piece fits, feels or functions. With Soft Serve, I got to take all the things I naturally gravitate towards and build them into a collection that feels genuinely personal to me,” says Khushi Kapoor. “I was involved throughout the process, from the silhouettes and colours to the finer details, because I wanted every piece to feel like something I would actually wear. The idea of bringing softness and strength together really resonated with me, and I think you can feel that balance throughout the collection.”
Cava brings its Adaptive Athleisure approach to the collaboration, focusing on versatile designs that can transition from workouts to everyday activities. The collection combines Khushi’s fashion-led perspective with the brand’s expertise in movement, functionality and performance.
“Khushi came into the process with a very clear understanding of what she wanted the collection to feel like, and that made the collaboration incredibly exciting. She was not looking to simply create something that looked good; she cared about how the pieces fit, moved and felt,” says Ria Mittal, Co-Founder, Cava. “Soft Serve really captures that balance we both believe in. You can be soft and still be incredibly driven. You can care about aesthetics and be equally obsessed with functionality. For us, that is what makes the collection feel authentic.”
Shreya Mittal, Co-Founder, Cava, adds, “Cava has always been about bringing together things that are not traditionally seen as belonging together. We have a very pinterest-y, aesthetic world, but underneath that is an intense focus on product, performance and functionality,” says Shreya Mittal, Co-Founder, Cava. “Khushi understood that balance instinctively. What made this collaboration special was that we were able to take her personal style and translate it into pieces that still have the performance and versatility Cava is known for. Soft Serve feels like a very natural meeting point between the two.”
Designed around feminine silhouettes, refined details and movement-led functionality, Soft Serve brings together Khushi Kapoor’s personal style and Cava’s performance-driven design philosophy.
More than a celebrity-led fashion collaboration, the collection represents a shared creative process, with Khushi’s wardrobe and aesthetic serving as the starting point and Cava’s product expertise translating the vision into functional athleisure.
Soft Serve by Khushi Kapoor x Cava launches on 1 September 2026.
