10 Times Hindi Movies Gave Us Fashion Goals

One
of
the
most
ornamental
things
about
art
can
be
one
of
its
biggest
asset
too.
Audrey
Hepburn’s
iconic
style
in

Breakfast
At
Tiffany
‘s
hasn’t
lessened
the
movie’s
impact
in
any
way.
If
anything,
her
looks
are
part
and
parcel
of
its
classic
appeal.

Go
chic
or
go
home,
right?

So
Ananya
Pandey’s
snazzy,
selfie-ready
style
in

Call
Me
Bae

is
the
first
thing
to
have
caught
our
eye
about
her
ultra
glamorous
debut
on
OTT
this
week.

From
bed
to
boardroom,
the
25
year
old
is
simply
slaying
on
the
sartorial
front
as
Bella
aka
Bae,
a
poor
little
rich
girl
navigating
the
world
outside
her
palace
of
privilege
in
one
gorgeous
designer
dress
at
a
time.

Like
Bae’s
idol
Poo,
Bollywood,
too,
is
a
sucker
for
good
looks,
good
looks
and
good
looks.
Where
some
trends
are
a
huge
rage
at
the
time
and
enjoy
eternal
nostalgic
value,
some
styles
wear
off
and
stay
timeless
no
matter
how
many
years
have
passed.

It’s
too
soon
to
predict
which
of
these
categories
Bae’s
bold
and
beautiful
outfits
belong
to.

But

Sukanya
Verma

looks
at
the
10
times
Hindi
movies
gave
us
fashion
goals.



An
Evening
in
Paris

Sharmila
Tagore’s
picture-perfect
cat
eyeliner,
slinky
one
piece,
sexy
tie-back
blouses
and
dreamy
silk
saris
paired
with
pearls
and
jadau
in
pastel,
earthy
and
jewel
tones
find
a
debonair
arm
candy
in
Shammi
Kapoor’s
dapper
style.

Painting
Paris
in
all
shades
of
elegance,
the
duo
do
desis
proud
and
how.
  



The
Great
Gambler

From
the
stable
of
Shakti
Samanta’s
school
of
showmanship,
just
like

An
Evening
in
Paris
,

The
Great
Gambler
‘s
sleek,
spiffy
slice-of-1970s
entertainment
asserts
the
power
of
prints,
accessorizing
and
layering
against
Amitabh
Bachchan
and
Zeenat
Aman’s
sophisticated,
statuesque
charms.



Umrao
Jaan

Benarasi,
brocade,
tissue,
jamavar,
the
rich
textiles
and
gleaming
opulence
of

Umrao
Jaan
‘s
tragic
courtesan
make
for
a
poetic
visual
in
Rekha’s
ravishing
muse
while
inspiring
many
fashion
designers
today
to
do
what
they
do.



Chandni

Treated
with
contempt
for
its
garish
aesthetics
and
loud
film-making,
the
repeatedly
badmouthed
1980s
more
than
compensate
for
its
follies
in

Chandni
‘s
dreamy
whites
and
flowy
chiffons
as
part
of
Yash
Chopra’s
grand
romantic
vision.

Decades
later,
Bollywood
continues
to
be
obsessed
with
Sri’s
ultra
feminine
look
as
much
as
the
girl
offscreen.



Dil
To
Pagal
Hai

Where
the
pastel
bias
is
evident
in
Chopra’s
portrayal
of
Madhuri
Dixit’s
character,
it’s
Karisma
Kapoor’s
hep
athleisure
and
figure
hugging
numbers
in
trendsetting
fabrics
and
high
street
brands
that
grabbed
the
attention
of
budding
fashionistas
all
over.



Aur
Pyaar
Ho
Gaya

Aishwarya
Rai’s
Bollywood
debut
fizzled
out
but
its
sublime
soundtrack
by
Nusrat
Fateh
Ali
Khan
and
super
attractive
wardrobe
refuse
to
be
dismissed.

What’s
not
to
love
about
the
wow,
wearable
outfits

western
and
traditional,
casual
and
formal

worn
by
world’s
most
beautiful
woman
that
look
as
fashionable
today
as
they
did
in
1997?



Dulhan
Hum
Le
Jayenge

Karisma
Kapoor
and
Govinda
may
be
the
more
hit

jodi
,
but
where
style
goes,
Lolo
and
Salman
Khan
win
it
hands
down.

Every
single
‘add
to
cart’
worthy
clothing
worn
by
this
smashing
pair
is
the
sole
reason
why
we
have
any
memories
of
this

Dilwale
Dulhania
Le
Jayenge

meets

Ek
Phool
Chaar
Kaante

hand-me-down.



Kabhi
Khushi
Kabhie
Gham

Karan
Johar’s
melodramatic
multi-starrer
wouldn’t
be
half
as
exciting
if
not
for
the
surfeit
of
tailored
gems
worn
by
its
star-studded
cast.

Be
it
Shah
Rukh
Khan’s
embroidered
sherwanis
to
Big
B’s
pricey
pashminas,
Kajol’s
sequinned
suits
to
Rani
Mukerji’s
candy
ensembles,
Hrithik
Roshan’s
asymmetrically
cropped
knits
to
Jaya’s
regal
saris
topped
by
Kareena
Kapoor’s
fashion
queen
in
her
iconic
pink
lehenga,
smouldering
red
leather
co-ord
set,
fur
coats
and
metallic
minis,
the
drama
and
dynamism
on
display
insists
it’s
all
about
loving
your
fashion.



Wake
Up
Sid

Ranbir
Kapoor
singlehandedly
upped
the
T-shirt
game
in
the
market
with
his
stash
of
cool
casuals
and
pop
culture-inspired
collection
of
graphic
tees,
ranging
from

Hulk

to

Ghostbusters

as
part
of
his
coming-of-age
in

Wake
Up
Sid
.



Aisha

Sonam
Kapoor’s

Emma

meets

Clueless

in
and
as

Aisha

gave
the
natural
born
fashionista
a
godsend
opportunity
to
showcase
her
prowess
as
a
clothes
horse
juggling
between
cupid
and
high-end
luxury.

Armed
in
her
Chanels
and
Christian
Diors,
she
fuelled
a
desire
in
the
hoi
polloi
for
fancy
labels
and
branded
wear.



Cocktail

Deepika
Padukone’s
breakout
performance
in

Cocktail

is
just
as
ace
for
her
style.
The
head
turner
is
every
bit
a
cool
cat
in
her
drool
worthy,
loot
worthy
wardrobe
of
groovy
club
wear
and
scorching
street
fashion.



Rocky
Aur
Rani
Kii
Prem
Kahani

Alia
Bhatt’s
breezy
ombre
sarees
along
with
a
medley
of
traditional
handlooms
meets
modern
styling
paired
with
silver
bling
and

bindi

is
the
real
prem
kahani

folks
should
be
talking
about.

Given
all
the
universal
love
it’s
received,
they
probably
have.
