Janhvi Kapoor vs Kendall Jenner fashion face-off: Who pulled off Bridgerton-style hat look better?
Janhvi Kapoor proved to be an unstoppable fashion diva at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival, serving back-to-back stunning looks. From the Tarun Tahiliani pink dress to the white dripping saree, each of her appearances made a statement and earned widespread admiration. Among these, her vintage black hat look especially drew attention for its surreal aura.
However, netizens have been speculating that she may have recreated Kendall Jenner's iconic black hat ensemble. While there are undeniable similarities between both celebrities' outfits, distinct elements set them apart—each carrying its own unique charm. Let's zoom in on both looks to decode the details!
Janhvi Kapoo
Janhvi Kapoor wore a Saint Laurent archival 1989 black velvet jacket to the 78th Cannes Film Festival. The structured jacket featured a closed front and round neckline, offering a polished and suave look. The YSL piece was cinched at the waist and flared out into a stunning, feminine A-line silhouette. Front buttons added a voguish touch to the fit.
Brilliantly blending two renowned designers, Janhvi paired the jacket with an asymmetrical skirt by Anamika Khanna, which cascaded into a long train from one side.
The Ulajh actress completed her black ensemble with stockings and black pointed stilettos, lending a statuesque appeal. The standout element of her vintage-inspired look was the large, old-school hat. Her hair was tied back, serving a clean-girl aesthetic.
Kendall Jenner
Kendall Jenner sported a similar black hat and vintage-inspired look for the MET Gala 2025 after-parties not long ago. The model graced the streets of Manhattan in an archival Mugler dress, paying tribute to the MET Gala 2025 theme, 'Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.'
The American socialite wore Manfred Thierry Mugler's fall/winter 1999-2000 archival dress, exuding elite glamour. The structured top featured a boat neckline with long sleeves, while the bodice showcased boxy shoulders and a cinched waist, highlighting exquisite tailoring.
Jenner paired the top with a short pencil skirt, creating a sleek monochromatic ensemble. She completed her look with a flat, tilted hat and pointed black stilettos, delivering a swoon-worthy statement.
The bottom line
Though Janhvi Kapoor and Kendall Jenner's looks might seem similar from afar, clear differences set them apart. Janhvi styled a classic black hat, while Kendall opted for a flat one. Janhvi paired her jacket with a flowing maxi skirt, whereas Kendall chose a pencil skirt to go with her boat-neckline top. Both embraced vintage Hollywood glamour, yet each added her own unique flair—and they both absolutely slayed.

Was TikToker Khaby Lame really arrested by ICE for living illegally in the US? Here's the truth
Viral social media claims that TikTok star Khaby Lame was arrested by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) have raised eyebrows—but there is no official confirmation to support the allegation. The rumour began when social media user Bo Loudon claimed on X that Lame had been arrested in Las Vegas and was in ICE custody. He labelled the Italian-Senegalese creator an 'illegal alien' and stated he was 'working with the patriots at President Trump's DHS to make this happen.' Bo Loudon wrote in another post, "BREAKING: ICE just CONFIRMED my report the biggest TikTok star, far-left Khaby Lame, was "DETAINED" in Las Vegas yesterday for "overstaying the terms of his VISA," per an email to Men's Journal. I've been working with President Trump's DHS to make this happen. NO EXCEPTIONS!" However, there is no evidence to back the claim. ICE has not confirmed any such arrest, and Lame's management has made no comment. In fact, another social media user shared screenshots showing that Khaby Lame's name does not appear on ICE's online detainee database. 'Anyone seeing this – you can check for yourself,' they wrote, including the locator URL. Khaby Lame, who moved to Italy at the age of one, has long been recognised as an Italian citizen. He gained international fame during the pandemic with his silent comedic videos and now holds the title of the most-followed TikTok creator with over 162 million followers. He has worked with major global brands and frequently represents Italy at public events. He also recently made his red carpet debut at the Met Gala 2025, where he walked for the brand, Hugo Boss.

At Cannes, celebrity Delhi entrepreneur Shalini Passi stood for fashion & culture 'without saying a word'
Known for always bringing her A-game when it comes to fashion, Shalini Passi made heads turn with her debut at the Cannes Film Festival 2025. An art patron, philanthropist, collector, and founder of the MASH (My Art Shalini) initiative, Passi has long been a force in the worlds of contemporary art and design. Last year, she stormed reality TV with Fabulous Lives vs Bollywood Wives. For her, therefore, Cannes was a canvas—the Chopard Love Party, the Global Gift Gala, the India Pavilion—her itinerary and exclusive couture dinners were about making Indian design and textile traditions visible to the world. Passi's red carpet appearance in a custom Manish Malhotra gown featuring artwork by painter Paresh Maity, was the moment Indian couture found a powerful, contemporary voice on an international stage. 'This gown was more than just couture; it was a canvas,' she tells TMS. The design paid tribute to India's vast cultural landscape, from Kashmir to Kanyakumari, fusing textile, craft, and modern artistry. Paired with Manish Malhotra jewellery and a sculptural Judith Leiber clutch, the look was an ode to Indian craftsmanship. 'It brought together textile, craft, and art of the country in a truly immersive way,' she says. 'I wanted to showcase how Indian couture can hold its own on a global red carpet, not just as fashion, but as storytelling through fabric and form.' Cultural advocacy Her consistent choice to spotlight Indian designers — whether through a handwoven saree or a maroon Amit GT gown — is an act of cultural advocacy. 'I see fashion as soft diplomacy. It creates cultural bridges without saying a word,' she says. Her pink-and-white custom saree worn to the India Pavilion echoed this ethos. A modern interpretation steeped in tradition, it nodded to Diana Vreeland's quip that 'pink is the navy blue of India' and symbolised the quiet power of Indian identity on an international platform. At the Hollywood Reporter Dinner, Passi's decision to wear Amit GT in deep maroon instead of the initially planned white was a thoughtful choice in sync with the historic, Belle Époque setting of the Carlton Hotel. 'It was about showing that Indian fashion can capture vintage glamour in a way that feels global,' she says. Stepping into the haute couture with Dolce & Gabbana at Dolce dinner was a conscious choice. 'The theme was Italian Diva, and I love how Dolce & Gabbana craft drama through tailoring and fabric.' While comfort was the key, the haute couture ensemble allowed her to remain true to the theatrical elegance of the evening. The Global Gift Gala, hosted by Eva Longoria and Lauren Brody, was about 'glamour for a cause' and Passi's choice of a Dolly J gown was more than just style. The sari-like trail and intricate embroidery carried a deeper message — one of philanthropy, intention, and celebration of Indian artisanship. She says, 'Fashion can amplify causes when it's intentional, and this was my way of bringing Indian artisanship to a philanthropic conversation. Philanthropy in a glamorous way is something that I have been aiming to bring to India too with the MASH Ball in support of UNICEF.'
