Completing almost 25 years in the Bollywood industry, nobody has ever been able to match the sass styling of Bebo. Let’s see 5 times when Kareena Kapoor Khan set trends that we’re still obsessed with.
The ultimate crop top and flared pants style
To date, from millennials to Gen Z, all aspire to wear chic crop tops with asymmetrical designs and a backless aura, matching them with a pair of sleek flared pants. This coordinated set monochrome styling was started by Kareena Kapoor Khan and was seen in the film ‘K3G’. Decked up in fiery red for her prom night, she ditched the dreamy gowns and sassy dresses she wore in British schools but instead opted for this sensual styling, which is still a hit.

Patiala pants
Long before the Indo-fusion look was a thing, Kareena Kapoor Khan already embraced it with open arms. Her character Geet in ‘Jab We Met’ became a sensation, where her Patiala looks with graphic tees and fitted short kurtas became everyone’s obsession. She was seen in simple white graphic t-shirts with round necklines and shoulder-length sleeves, teamed with cotton fabric flared Patiala that instantly became a trend.

Corset tops with mini skirts
As she started the zero-figure look in Bollywood, during that phase, Kareena was spotted in denim mini skirts with rugged belts and corset tops before it was even a fashion thing. Everyone remembers her look from the song ‘Chhaliya’, where she was seen in stunning corset tops teamed with a mini skirt. This trend was quickly picked up by every other college student and became the aesthetic of a rebellious girl.
