Fashion and Bollywood share a deep-rooted relationship. As flag bearers of fashion, celebs are always expected to bring something awe-inspiring to the table. The general expectation is that they shouldn’t repeat their outfits. Meeting these expectations requires a new outfit for every outing or occasion, which leads to wastefulness. However, times are changing; with environmental consciousness on the rise, some Indian celebs are breaking free of the stereotypes and prioritizing sustainability over everything else. In the fashion news today, we’ll give a shout out to such Indian celebs who are trying to make a difference.
