Celebration of costume and couture: Know all about the rising culture of fashion trade exhibitions in India

India's fashion scene is known for its rich cultural heritage, elegance, variety, and vibrancy. This dynamic landscape, which reflects centuries of artistic expression, is now taking centre stage nationally, pushing the fashion industry into the spotlight through dynamic conventions and curated experiences. From ethnic wear to Western styles, high-street fashion to traditional salwar kameez, Indian fashion has undergone a dramatic transformation. The fashion fraternity has benefited from thousands of years of tradition, preserving the richness of each culture. From the 17th century to today, India's influence on Western fashion has been deep and layered, a story that's finally gaining the recognition and celebration it deserves. India's sartorial traditions, once mimicked in the court of Louis XVI and the couture salons of Jazz Age Paris, are now shaping global aesthetics through chic Kolhapuris and reinvented sarees though the credit is still long overdue. Having witnessed the British Raj and now living in the era of global brands, Indian fashion has evolved tremendously. From local markets to malls and shopping apps, we are now entering a new phase: fashion trade exhibitions, where homegrown labels and big names come together under one roof. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Top 15 Most Beautiful Women in the World Undo Image Credits: Pinterest) These exhibitions offer more than just shopping, they're a blend of culture, creativity, and commerce.

Kareena Kapoor, 44, To Romance Actor In His Early 20s In Next Film? Know Here

As per reports, Kareena Kapoor will play a ghost in the film and romance an actor nearly 20 years younger than her. Kareena Kapoor is reportedly set to play a ghost in her upcoming film. As per reports, she will also romance an actor much younger than her. The Bollywood actress is 44 years old, and reports mention that she will be paired opposite an actor who will be nearly 20 years younger than her. A Deccan Chronicle quoted their source as saying, 'This quirky story featuring Kareena as a ghost has a refreshing script and will carve out a new space in the ghost genre. It's a fun, genre-bending take, and Kareena is perfect for it." The report also mentions that the film is written by Hussain Dalal, who is known for his frequent collaborations with Ayan Mukerji, including Brahmastra Part 1. The report claims that the film will feature Kareena romancing an actor in his early 20s. However, an official confirmation on this is awaited. It has become a norm in Bollywood that older actors romance younger actresses on screen. Recently, Ranveer Singh was called out on social media for romancing Sara Arjun on screen, who was reportedly only 18 years old during the shoot of Dhurandhar. Ranveer Singh was 38 at the time. Amid this, the report about Kareena romancing a younger actor has particularly caught everyone's attention. However, it is important to note that the speculations are yet to be confirmed. Meanwhile, Kareena Kapoor, who recently completed 25 years in films, will next be seen in Daayra. Known for delivering powerful films such as Raazi and Talvar together, Junglee Pictures reunites with acclaimed director Meghna Gulzar for the third time for their next film—Daayra. The film taps into the pulse of the people as it confronts the topical and diabolical realities unfolding in society today. This crime-drama thriller explores the age-old paradox of crime, punishment, and justice with powerhouse actors Kareena Kapoor Khan and Prithviraj Sukumaran in intense, commanding roles. Co-written by Yash and Sima alongside Meghna Gulzar, the film is currently in pre-production. With an intriguing storyline and a stellar team, Daayra marks Meghna's next directorial after Sam Bahadur (2023), promising a gritty and nuanced exploration of crime and punishment, justice, and truth.

Kareena Kapoor's Beachwear Gets A Desi Twist With Lungi-Inspired Skirt And Swim Top

Last Updated: For her beach holiday in Greece, Kareena Kapoor ditched the sarong and opted for a chic lungi-inspired skirt along with her swim top. Kareena Kapoor Khan has long reigned as one of Bollywood's most effortlessly stylish stars, and her recent vacation look proves why she continues to be a fashion trailblazer. Currently soaking in the sun on a picturesque family holiday in Greece, the actor has been serving one sartorial moment after another. But it's her latest outfit that truly turned heads – a striking fusion of modern beachwear and traditional Indian aesthetics. Breaking away from her signature bikini-and-kaftan combo, Kareena Kapoor opted for a fresh take on coastal fashion. She sported a vibrant yellow halterneck swim top, complete with a playful back-tie detail that brought an element of flirty charm. Instead of pairing it with shorts or a sarong, she chose an unconventional yet eye-catching piece: a lungi-inspired skirt. Take a look at Kareena's beach fit here. Kareena Kapoor's Lungi-Inspired Skirt The skirt, a long, ankle-grazing number, featured a bottle green checkered print interwoven with fine white and red lines, creating a plaid design that felt equal parts relaxed and fashion-forward. The hemline featured dainty lace trims that added a feminine allure to the skirt. The high-waisted silhouette added structure while maintaining the fluidity of traditional draping, allowing her to stroll the beaches of Greece in true Kareena style – minimal, bold, and utterly unique. Staying true to her fuss-free glam, the actress completed the ensemble with oversized black sunglasses and a classic black baseball cap – accessories that kept the focus on her outfit while protecting her from the Mediterranean sun. Her hair was left open in soft, tousled waves, and her makeup was kept refreshingly minimal, highlighting her natural glow. From red carpets to sandy shores, Kareena's fashion choices consistently strike the perfect balance between comfort and statement. Her lungi-skirt moment is a masterclass in how to reimagine traditional elements in contemporary settings—and we're taking notes. Kareena Kapoor's Upcoming Movies On the work front, Kareena was last seen in Singham Again, where she shared the screen with Ajay Devgn, Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone, and Arjun Kapoor. The actor will be next seen in Meghna Gulzar's Daayra. view comments First Published: July 18, 2025, 16:36 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
