Deepika Padukone
Many resonated with Deepika’s understated look in Amitabh Bachchan and Irrfan Khan-starrer, Piku. A user shared, “For me, it has to be Piku. Her style is soo understated, elegant and classy. The bindi and the comfy kurtas really made ethnic wear cooler.”

Another shared, “This immediately made me think of Deepika’s sarees in YJHD (this and the blue one!) for a full two years everyone at every school I knew was wearing it for their farewells and there were imitation copies of it in everyone’s closet.”

The hold Shantipriya had on all of us was unreal!
Of course, there was Kareena Kapoor Khan
Kareena Kapoor Khan’s Geet could be touted as one of the well-fleshed-out characters to have been ever written! Her style book was just as good.
One added, “This wasn’t done by just one actress and yes, Kareena did it first, but all of them carried this beautifully, which led to this becoming India’s favourite college girl outfit. Even today you would see every other girl in her 20s wearing it.”

This list won’t be complete without Poo!
Alia Bhatt takes over!
A user shared Alia’s look from 2 States is one of her favourites! “Has to be Alia Bhatt from 2 States. Pretty surprised nobody’s mentioned it, but she majorly wore Indian clothes and those truly defined what most young college-going girls would wear. From the Kurtis to long skirts, beautiful outfits,” she penned.
