Amitabh Bachchan @80: Bollywood's OG style icon

They say, when he enters the room, everything stops for a moment and all one does is admire his persona and style. Amitabh Bachchan has been in the entertainment industry for fifty odd years and is considered to be the greatest actor of Hindi cinema. The legendary actor turns 80 today. Whether it's his choice of movie roles or his penchant for learning new languages, Big B is a pro at it all. And, one thing that nobody can beat him at is- dressing to the nines. The actor is always dressed to perfection, whether it's a casual tracksuit look or a three-piece suit. We look at the iconic trends set by the actor that make him a timeless fashion icon.

The legendary superstar made the 1960’s hippie movement big in Bollywood when he started wearing bell bottoms and flared pants - a trend that was copied by every Indian man who lived in that era.

His tinted sunglasses are stylish till date and dandy men around the world flaunt these retro sunglasses with sophistication. Big B also has a massive collection of sunglasses and reading glasses.

Amitabh Bachchan doesn't let age defined his style. He is still seen rocking hoodies, harem pants and stoles like a debonair and we can't help but praise the actor for his knack for fashion.

During his young days, he would rock jumpsuits, knotted shirts and even co-ord sets which stylish men love to rock even today. His every look was a style statement. He is undoubtedly the most well-dressed man in Bollywood.

What seemingly began as regular homewear for Amitabh, went onto become a craze of sorts with his fans. Amitabh has always been associated with his kurta pyjama and shawl look, and nobody dons it like the icon.
