“Let’s begin with news on celebrities being the trendsetters in Fashion,
There have been numerous red carpets like Met Gala, and Cannes is still ongoing. But have you ever heard of court fashion? The right to wear what you want in court is part of the right to a fair trial. And as clothing can affect perception in a negative or positive ways. It allows you to continue to represent your position, even when you aren’t on the stand. As a result, an entire subspecialty of the styling profession has developed focusing on the courtroom. Both Depp and Heard dress up in ways that suit their personality and maturity. It is a way to gain fandom and traction. ”
“With movie promotions, screenings, and red carpets, stars stepped out in their stylish best this week. From Kiara Advani’s monochrome look featuring the colour of the season to Dia Mirza‘s comfy and chic summer dress, this week was all about glam as well as minimal-but-stunning looks. Shraddha Kapoor looked summer-appropriate and pretty in her cotton printed kurta suit set that she paired with Kolhapuri heels.
Dia Mirza looked her elegant and pretty self in a white dress with soft blue embroidery that she paired with golden flats for the perfect summer-wear ensemble. Kiara Advani seems to have jumped on the bandwagon of this season’s colour: hot pink. She did so with a corset and flared pink trousers that looked crisp and stunning.

Looks like Sabyasachi is the current Cannes-favourite among B-town celebrities as Aditi, too, just like Deepika, was seen in a regal creation by the designer — a full-sleeved black lace gown with a bodice and a voluminous skirt bottom. It was cinched at the waist with a black leather belt. Giving it a traditional twist, she accessorized with a stone-studded gold choker, a couple of dainty neckpieces, and hoop earrings. A bright pink headband pulled back her hair in a neat bun. A small black bindi and minimal makeup rounded off her look. Earlier in the day, Aditi kept it colorful for her first appearance on the red carpet as she sported a beautiful colour-blocked outfit by Mark Bumgarner. The red and pink strappy dress featured a thigh-high slit and a long train.
Following the events of the Cannes Film Festival, Actor Deepika Padukone donned herself in a Bengal tiger-stripe couture sari, from the Cannes film festival, that its designer Sabyasachi Mukherjee says has several stories to tell. Like the fact that each of the stripes was block-printed and hand-embroidered with sequins, an example of our traditional craftsmanship that could fit as easily as her bustier amid the high fashion on the French Riviera. Or that the chandelier earrings could easily blend Bengal’s heritage with art deco just as the gilded mathapetti could mimic a contemporary tiara. In the end, it looked like Padukone was playing the part and had prepped for this role with as much meticulousness as she does for the characters she plays.
“Fashion critics have pointed out how Kourtney Kardashian’s style has evolved into something more gothic than ever. Her style has been enhanced since she started dating Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker. The couple, having made many red carpet appearances together — including the recent Met Gala 2022 — seems to showcase a gothic sense of fashion and it is only getting better and bolder.
Kourtney shares three kids with ex-partner Scott Disick and was seen in a white Dolce & Gabbana mini dress. She’s a representative for the Italian label confirmed it to People magazine, adding that the dress featured a ‘bleeding heart’ detail embroidered on the bustier-style bodice.”
“More news on Kourtney Kardashian:

Speaking of more fashion, Harnaaz Sandhu often serves fashion goals with her versatile and jaw-dropping style statements. Since she won the Miss Universe crown in 2021, her popularity has surged and people are eager to learn more about the model and the social causes she stands firmly for. Harnaaz met up with Miss Universe 2020 Andrea Meza in Manhattan, New York. The 22-year-old showcased sartorial elegance in a blush pink attire. She donned a turtle neck top and paired it with a matching ruffle skirt. She teamed it with a knee-length long blazer and accessorized it with a shoulder bag and a pair of transparent, strappy pencil heels.
“There is always a possibility of a resurgence when we speak of fashion. For instance, an outfit making a comeback several years after it was first worn, with a modern touch or two.
Recently, Kim Kardashian did it on the Met Gala 2022 red carpet, when she chose to wear the iconic Marilyn Monroe gown, which the actor had worn while singing ‘Happy Birthday Mr. President’ on US president John F Kennedy’s birthday in 1962.
Now, actor Carmen Electra, the Baywatch star, has praised the SKIMS founder after she dressed in one of her “daring” dresses from the ’90s. During an interview with Us Weekly, said that Kardashian looked “amazing” in the gown, pictures of which were posted on her Instagram in April this year. ”
We end this bulletin with some news on Vidya Balan, who spoke out about her struggles with being fat-shamed and her struggle with body image. Now, in a new interview, the actor has revealed how despite being at her thinnest she would “feel fat”. The video was re-shared by SheThePeople on their Instagram handle with the caption: “Fat shaming is extremely normalized to a point where women at their skinniest feel insecure about losing more weight without the context of being healthy.” She added, “I faced rejection down South in my initial years which I felt was because of my weight. Even when I was at my thinnest, I felt fat.”
