The year 2024 witnessed several memorable fashion missteps. Aishwarya Rai's appearances at Cannes left both her domestic and international admirers underwhelmed, while Doja Cat's unconventional wet gown at the Met Gala attracted considerable scrutiny on social media. These instances, among others, highlighted various celebrity fashion choices and trends that prompted extensive criticism. Below are some prominent blunders in the realm of fashion.

Aishwarya Rai at Cannes Film Festival

Aishwarya Rai is among the most anticipated Indian celebrities to grace the Cannes red carpet. Unfortunately, the former Miss World did not leave a significant impression with her appearance this year. She showcased two gowns by Falguni Shane Peacock at Cannes, both of which did not resonate well with online audiences. The first was a black and white floor-length gown adorned with golden accents, while the second featured a silver and turquoise fringed design; both outfits were deemed overly elaborate. Nevertheless, her makeup and accessories remained, as always, exquisite.

Team India's Tarun Tahiliani uniforms at the 2024 Paris Olympics

The Olympics, taking place in the fashion capital of the world, drew significant attention to the costumes of all participating teams, including that of India. This year, designer Tarun Tahiliani was responsible for creating the attire for the Indian contingent at the Paris Olympics. However, the designs faced criticism for being perceived as 'lacklustre' in comparison to the more vibrant uniforms worn by athletes from other nations. Additionally, some critics accused the designer of utilizing inexpensive polyester fabric and lacking creativity in the incorporation of the tricolour.

Bhumi Pednekar's ‘Naagin’ look with glass belly

In 2024, Bhumi Pednekar embraced a year of fashion experimentation. The actress took several bold and daring sartorial risks. While many of her choices were well-received and garnered acclaim online, others elicited mixed responses. A notable example is her contentious ‘naagin-core’ ensemble. At an event, she donned a white drape, secured by a glass torso adorned with serpentine motifs, crafted by Raw Mango. While some commentators criticized the glass breastplate for its protruding belly, others deemed it an appropriation of the traditional Bhuta Kola ritual dance from Karnataka.

Doja Cat's Wet Look at Met Gala

The Met Gala would not be complete without an outfit that teeters on the brink of a wardrobe malfunction. This year, Doja Cat embraced that challenge, making a striking entrance in a wet white gown that appeared as though she had just emerged from the shower. The metallic silver teardrops cascading from her smoky eyes enhanced the overall wet look of her attire.

The Pants Chaos

This year witnessed significant developments in the realm of trousers, ranging from low-waist styles to the emerging pantless trend. The much-debated low-waist fashion, often associated with millennial preferences, was notably embraced by celebrities such as Jennifer Lopez, Emily Blunt, Addison Rae, Zendaya, Hailey Bieber, Gigi Hadid, and Bella Hadid. In contrast, the unconventional 'no pants' aesthetic was prominently featured by figures like Kylie Jenner, Hailey Bieber, Rihanna, Shay Mitchell, Emily Ratajkowski, Lily-Rose Depp, and Kate Beckinsale. In our view, it may be best to allow pants to exist without such extremes.

The Balenciaga ‘sellotape bracelet’ worth ₹3 lakh

The Balenciaga "sellotape bracelet" made its debut during the luxury brand's Fall/Winter 2024 collection, presented by a model on the runway at Paris Fashion Week. This unique accessory quickly generated discussions on social media, with numerous individuals deeming it quite unusual. With a price tag of around USD 4,000 (₹3.40 lakh), the bracelet is among several fashion items that have garnered significant attention this year. Earlier, in March, Coperni introduced their 37gm Air Swipe bag, crafted from air, while Louis Vuitton revealed their Sandwich Bag, which retails for USD 3,130 (₹2.66 lakh).
