Amitabh Bachchan`s fashion analysis
Instagram, X
Menswear writer and fashion critic Derek Guy was asked on X, formerly Twitter to come up with well-dressed Indian men and his list included Amitabh Bachchan.
From quirky jackets to flashy prints, Amitabh can carry any outfit with ease, courtesy of his charisma.
Here’s what Derek says about the legendary actor, whose sartorial choices have become headlines over the years.
Amitabh Bachchan sported knits-on-knits in the 1976 romantic film Kabhi Kabhie.
He also styled suits with flared trousers and dashing 1970s-style eyewear.
Derek also compared Big B with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and praised him for harmonizing proportions in terms of clothes and eyewear.
Bachchan here shows how you can do tonal outfits by varying fiber, sheen, and shade, rather than colour.
He also shows how to ditch the tie and opt for a turtleneck with a patterned scarf to add visual interest.
In the song Rimjhim Gire Sawan, Big B looks good because of tailoring. His collar hugs the neck, and his jacket ends about halfway from the collar to the floor.
Even in his 80s, the megastar, with his peculiar style sense can give the youngsters a run for their money.
