365 days, we are given fashion, and we create our own sense of style with it. Some people have it inborn, while others follow world trends to remain glamorous year-round. Every fashion enthusiast requires a role model because trends change all the time and frequently impact one's taste. Our B-towns are the greatest at giving us just that. The business is full of celebrities that never cease inspiring our sense of style, blazing through red carpets, events, parties, and even airports. We highlight the appearances from last week that we will put on the "best looks" board as well as the ones that didn't quite live up to expectations.

HITS:

ALAYA F

Alaya F was all dressed up for the promotions of her upcoming film Almost Pyaar with Dj Mohbbat. She uploaded images on Instagram wearing a pink outfit for commercial purposes. She grabbed her pink outfit from Revolve. Her dress features noodle straps, and the hem and bodice have ruffled accents. The dress features a slit in the centre that gives it a little sensual edge. The cost of her dress is Rs. 24,354. Her outfit's single colour serves as a standout piece you may wear in the summer. Her ensemble was finished off with delicate golden hoops. She went for middle-parted chaotic waves with highlighted streaks to further spice up her appearance. She donned a brown lip colour, a bronzed complexion, a wash of pink on her eyelids, and mascara-covered eyes for the beauty segment.

MOUNI ROY

Mouni Roy's admirers were pleased with a collection of stunning shots from a recent photo shoot. In a pearl-embellished little bodycon dress, the actress was a sight to behold. She was dressed in a seductive costume from the brand Dar Sara that was covered in countless pearls. A garment of a pearl lover's dreams, in our opinion! Mouni's show-stopping outfit was adorned with sparkly accents in addition to plenty of pearls. The dress also had a sweetheart neckline and noodle straps. Naturally, the actress opted to forgo elaborate accessories in favour of letting her gorgeous dress steal the show. She simply accessorised her look with a massive golden ring and a pair of metallic heels.

RASHMIKA MANDANNA

Rashmika Mandanna is now having a moment with her own sense of style, as seen by her sartorial choices. The actress is experimenting with a beige and gold tint this time, and her unusual combination of wardrobe choices never fails to draw heads. The actress selected a lovely coordinated set from designer Anamika Khanna's racks, which included a top with an embroidered plunging neckline and patterned pants that just brought contrast to the ensemble. To top it all off, she added a stunning and distinctive shrug-style layer that had borders made of cutwork and delicate hand embroidery. She pulled this look off with ease, and her gorgeous hairdo gave the outfit elegance.

MRUNAL THAKUR

Mrunal Thakur is the epitome of style. On her Instagram handle, the actor frequently posts significant fashion cues for her followers to see. Mrunal A flurry of self-portraits from her most recent work trip to Bengaluru. Mrunal was spotted wearing royal blue pants and a mustard-coloured brocade jacket. The shawl collar of the mustard Mrunal jacket boasts golden patterns. She wore a white top underneath her jacket. She finished off her understated desi girl style by wearing silver rings and spectacular chandelier earrings. Mrunal had glass skin, glossy eyes, and a nude lip as she precisely separated her hair in the middle and left it open. Her outfit was completed with silver pointed pumps.

KHUSHI KAPOOR

Khushi showed up at The Archies wrap party in Mumbai wearing a stylish black dress from House of CB. Khushi's minidress is a gathered, draped, and delicate design for an incredibly feminine appearance. It is one shoulder styled and has a flattering asymmetrical hem. We adored the high wrap neck with its sophisticated tie collar and strappy open back that falls nicely down to the waist. Khushi completed her ensemble with a pair of black strap sandals. She carried a black purse and sported delicate earrings. Her makeup featured pink lips, eyeliner, mascara, and sculpted cheekbones. She tied her hair up in an unkempt bun.

MISS
ESHA GUPTA

Esha Gupta is renowned for fusing the hottest fashion trends with her own distinctive flair. Given her track record, Esha Gupta consistently makes pleasant and unexpected fashion choices. However, her all-black outfit by the design house Huemn falls short of expectations. Esha had a highly intricate-looking garment, and the veil over her head was a little odd in this picture. Additionally, her makeup didn't enhance the appearance in any way.

JACQUELINE FERNANDEZ

She is one of the most fashionable women around. For the Cirkus movie's promotion, Jacqueline Fernandez wore this saree. Her dark eye shadow, excessive highlighter, and dark lips didn't seem to work for her, but the saree is simply too garish here as well. She could have worn a garish saree and subdued makeup. Her elaborate jewellery gave the impression that she was headed to a wedding rather than a promotional event.

Every year has its ups and downs, and 2022 was no different. On the fashion front, though, the ups outweighed the downs and offered us fashion moments that were beyond our wildest dreams. Bollywood celebs had a very hectic 2022, whether it was on the red carpet, at fashion shows or significant celebrity milestones. Only a few of our favourite fashion trends and accessories that made headlines in 2022—and that we want to see in 2023—are presented to you from our collection of most treasured fashion moments.

MINI BAGS
In the realm of fashion, the mini bag has a lengthy history. Women didn't carry a lot, therefore handbags started off little. Let's go ahead to the time when, surprisingly, handbags started to become smaller. The micro bag style as we know it now is mostly attributed to one designer and one particular bag. The micro-bag trend has exploded in popularity this year! Greater mobility is made possible by using a tiny bag; with less to carry, less to worry about. Clutch is more difficult to handle than a little bag. In contrast to clutch, which you must be careful not to put down and walk away from or leave on a table, you can just strap it on and call it a day with mini bag. By limiting their collection of everyday necessities to just a few objects, it encourages people to adopt a minimalist lifestyle. One example is how Disha Patani and Khushi Kapoor, two members of the Gen Z generation, accessorised their outfits with mini-bags from high-end brands.

BARBIECORE TREND
We are certainly not complaining that beautiful pinks are appearing on everything from runways to advertisements. Bollywood has adopted the pink colour scheme this season, from stars to models. Barbiecore culture has swept over the fashion industry this year, and it's all about wearing pink and dressing like a Barbie. Bollywood divas follow the pattern just as closely. Bollywood nailed the Barbiecore trend and left us flabbergasted, from Aishwaria Rai in a chic pink pantsuit by Valentino to Kiara Advani in a blazer dress.

COMBAT BOOTS
It's simple to make the majority of your wardrobe work year-round in the world today. Footwear also tends to be seasonless. There are countless ways to dress combat boots, one of the most adaptable shoe types in fashion, no matter what the weather outside may be like. Given that they are comfortable to walk in while yet being effective, combat boots are still a wise choice when putting together an outfit. These shoes look great with sweatpants, your favourite skirt, and even your ordinary jeans. From Deepika Padukone to Malaika Arora, our favourite Bollywood women who know how to look stylish with combat boots. This season's combat boot trend has been nailed by these females. Follow in their elegant footsteps.

COLOUR BLOCKING TREND
Colour blocking is the practise of combining hues that are on opposing sides of the colour wheel to produce an eye-catching appearance. Even while it may seem scary, if you do it right, it may actually help you come up with some fantastic looks. Colour blocking was popular in the 1960s, the 1980s, and most recently in the late 2010s, but it disappeared a few years ago. We couldn't wait for a comeback since we adore vibrant pops of colour, and it appears that our prayers have been heard. B-fashionistas town's have displayed provocative, colour-blocked outfits this year. Celebrities like Rakul Preet Singh and Ananya Panday attempted the trend and succeeded.

UNDERBUST JEWELLERY
When Priyanka Chopra made her three-year absence from India public, a lot of discussion ensued. Priyanka returned to her own country to promote her haircare business in Mumbai. She showed up in an elegant all-white ensemble to a brand marketing event. Although Priyanka looked great in her cropped top and flared jeans, one of her accessories truly got our attention. We're talking about the underbust gems that Priyanka wore with the blouse and proved to be the season's trendiest accessory. It was designed by Australian designer Christopher Esber, whose under-the-breast gem accent is already a favourite among fashionistas. He has been fashion's silent achiever for the better part of a decade and is set to take centre stage thanks to the ringing endorsements of stars like Zendaya, Dua Lipa, and Solange. Without a doubt, PC made a bold fashion statement with her all-white look, and we will remember the underbust jewels for a very long time. Malaika Arora joined in on the craze. It is already gaining popularity among influencers, and we are confident that it will soon reach the markets.

While John Abraham has time and again asserted that he doesn’t like to discuss his personal life, he maintains the same rule on social media too. However, it seems that his wife Priya Runchal has been sharing sneak peeks from their happy married life on social media of late. While she shared photos way back in October during the Diwali season with the Pathaan actor, she shared another set of photos now which seems to be a part of the Christmas festivities at their household.

Priya Runchal took to Instagram to share two photos from their latest family get-together and posted it along with a ‘feeling loved’ emoji. The investment banker, who also had a low-key wedding with John Abraham, posed with the entire family of the actor in this series of photos. The first photo has her posing with John’s mother Firoza Irani, father Abraham John, and brother Alan Abraham. The carousel photo also had John lovingly pose with his wife. Besides the rare family photo, it was also John’s look in a black tee and mustache that seems to have garnered quite a bit of attention. We wonder if the actor is sporting this look for a film!

The year 2022 ends today and the biggest grosser of the year is Vivek Agnihotri’s The Kashmir Files. It was the sleeper blockbuster as the film, reportedly made in just Rs. 15 crores, opened with collections of just Rs. 3.55 crores and had a lifetime of Rs. 252.90 crores. As a result, the expectations are tremendous for Vivek’s next film, The Vaccine War. Vivek Agnihotri announced the film a few months back and two weeks ago, the film went on floors.

Bollywood Hungama has learnt about the casting of The Vaccine War, which was kept under wraps till now. A source told Bollywood Hungama, “The Vaccine War stars Nana Patekar in the lead. He has a very important and well-fleshed-out character. Nana sir is putting his heart and soul into playing his character and he’s happy shooting for the film.”

Nana Patekar, who turns a year older tomorrow, on January 1, was last seen in the Tamil film Kaala (2018), co-starring Rajinikanth. It's My Life (2020) and Tadka (2022) did see a release on television and digital respectively, but these were delayed projects. In 2023, he's expected to be seen in as many as 3 films. Besides The Vaccine War, he plays the lead in The Confession, directed by Ananth Narayan Mahadevan. He also shot for the Marathi remake of the blockbuster Gujarati film, Chaal Jeevi Laiye (2019).

The source added, “Apart from Nana Patekar, The Vaccine War also stars Vivek Agnihotri’s wife Pallavi Joshi, who’ll be back on the big screen after her dynamic performance in The Kashmir Files. Gopal Singh, who recently played a significant role in Madhur Bhandarkar’s India Lockdown (2022) and veteran actress Divya Seth are also a part of the cast of the film. The movie is currently being shot in Lucknow.”

The Vaccine War, as the name suggests, is about India’s successful vaccination programme against the threat of Covid-19. It is scheduled to be released on Independence Day in 2023.
