While everyone is talking about Indian Cinema completing 100 years, let us focus on Bollywood fashion, which has been the most integral part of Indian cinema for a century now and has also completed its whopping 100 years.

Music and fashion have always been the discrete elements in making a cinema successful at the box office. Indians are very much particular about music and they’re hugely interested in checking-out what their favorite celebs are wearing in a movie.

Fashion entered Bollywood decades ago. We have seen how yester year actresses from 50’s looked sunning even in the black and white roll, when every shade they wore was inexorably hidden in black and white color.

Even in those days, our Cinema world was well aware about fashion and had a superb taste, when it came to fashion the leading ladies. Actresses like Madhubala, Nargis, Sadhna, Saira Bano, Sharmila Tagore and Hema Malini were trend setters and even today, we follow their style and search for the same designs they had worn decades ago.

In fashion, what comes around goes around. The 60’s style has been revamped time and again.
