Get ready to up your red carpet fashion game with bold trends like breastplates, corsets, and bralettes.
Breastplate:
Once a protective armour piece, the breastplate has evolved into a fashion statement. This torso-covering garment draws its inspiration from ancient warfare.
Corset:
It is a fitted couture piece designed to enhance a woman's body type and curves, creating a chic look. It is also being reimagined as a modern alternative to a traditional sari blouse.
Bralette:
What once was an undergarment has now become a bold piece of outerwear itself. It can be easily styled under blazers, sheer tops, or even worn solo, giving it an edgy flair.
Saris are re-emerging as a key fashion trend, leading celebrities to experiment with new blouse styles. A corset blouse, in my opinion, tops the list for a striking red carpet appearance

Your outfit and you should both go hand-in-hand: Teju Kranti, stylist
Celebrities are constantly pushing fashion boundaries, and their latest styling choices offer fresh inspiration, especially for traditional wear. 'The fashion trend is shifting back to saris, prompting celebrities to explore diverse blouse options. For a red carpet look, I believe a corset blouse stands out,' says stylist Teju Kranti. She further emphasises, 'I strongly believe your outfit and you should both go hand-in-hand to uplift each other's beauty.
Neena Gupta has always been a fashion icon when it comes to experimenting with clothes; donning a bralette with a kaftan is so interesting.
I find the breastplate pretty interesting. It is not comfortable, obviously; but in terms of the look it gives a sneak peek into the future of fashion. It could probably be adapted into more comfortable attire going ahead
