Five Trends That Were On Our Style Radar In 2023
The most coveted trends in 2023 comprised pantsuits, sequined bodycon dresses, velvet kurta, corset tops, bold cut-outs, and oversized jackets. Many such trends caught our attention, and here are five that we think were the most loved:
Come on, Barbie! Let’s go party - and so she did! The first half of the year was dominated by ultra-feminine and chic Barbiecore style. Defined by its whimsical flair and playful tones, Barbiecore pays homage to the iconic Barbie doll. A striking example of this trend can be found in Ananya Pandey's attire, perfect for brunches, picnics, and dates. The Bollywood sensation has donned a classic Barbie-hot pink blouse paired with a figure-skimming skirt, featuring a see-through embroidered finish. She rounded off the look with pumps of the same shade to echo the vibrancy of the Barbie aesthetic.
