Cool me down, I’m feeling so exotic… as her song goes, Priyanka Chopra is globally known for raising the temperature with her standout style sense. She has some of the most iconic appearances in the fashion archives ever since she won the Miss World 2000 crown. From being a maximalist on the red carpet to rocking retro fads on the street, her no-risk-no-reward way of style is admired across the globe. Whether it’s choosing an all-pink ensemble for her movie The Sky Is Pink promotion or matching printed co-ordinates for tropical vacations with the fam, Priyanka has the knack of stepping into any trend like the true fashionista she is.
A Short Throwback
Priyanka Chopra stepped into the limelight two decades ago and has always been on the front row of fashion in her action-packed career. Drapes, shimmery metallic tones and figure-hugging silhouettes defined her signature style in the noughties. As a consistent stunner on the red-carpets, her style evolution from Bollywood to Hollywood has ranged from refreshing to daring to being one of the style icons.
A Red Carpet Stunner
When it comes to the red carpet, ‘drama’ is her middle name. Peecee’s style choices gamble with the most untapped & brave statements. We will admit it took us a while to get over the dramatic trench coat by Ralph Lauren at MET Gala. From that to her second stint in a Ralph Lauren custom-made burgundy velvet gown with a crown-replacing blingy hood to define the ‘Heavenly Bodies’ theme; and when she took it a notch up by with Mad-Hatter inspired look in a feathery gown by Dior to interpret the ‘Camp’ statement of 2019, Priyanka has been winning at the unique themes of MET Gala, appearance by appearance. Adventurous choices at the MET aside, her style moments while presenting prestigious international awards are remarkable too. Case in point- Her twirly moment at the Emmys in the red Jason Wu dress created quite a stir across social media while her choice of pristine white gowns at the last two Oscars positioned her amongst the best-dressed celebrities both times.
Power Couple
When our desi girl married American heartthrob, Nick Jonas, their wedding portraits broke the internet. Her iconic 75-feet long trail white wedding gown by Ralph Lauren was the dreamiest masterpiece she has ever adorned while the top-to-toe red ensemble by Sabyasachi channelled every bit of her bridal glory. Her multiple reception parties and pre-wedding festivities in custom-made Sabyasachi and Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla ensembles too struck the fancy of every bride-to-be. PeeCee’s superlative glam quotient also shines even when she’s in the audience cheering hubby Nick Jonas at his concerts. They’ve together garnered plenty of headlines for being a stylishly coordinated couple.
Personal Style
Not afraid to stand out, Priyanka is always experimenting. From breezy silhouettes to form fitted tailoring, there’s a vivid versatility in her style sensibilities. She is visibly inclined towards monochromes currently and her colour choice ranges like an absolute rainbow! From tiffany blue and hot pink co-ordinates to power dressing in neutral overalls like tan, black and ivory, the star’s closet defines a riot of colours. While thigh-high slits and dashes of bling are a constant for her at red-carpets, she places bets on bold prints when on vacation mode. Bulky layers and turtlenecks never looked cooler till she walked the New York street! Closer home, our desi girl doubles it up with a tinge of sassiness. She is a true patron of the good ol’ classic sarees.
Following the call of her glamour-studded life, all her appearances reaffirm her global domination in the fashion sphere and not just cinema. For the forthcoming New Year celebrations, if you seek a style quotient as stellar as Priyanka Chopra, a dash of drama and pops of colours are all you need!
