Alia Bhatt once again proved why she is a style icon as she embraced what she happily called her “bows ka phase” during the holiday season. The actor shared a series of pictures on social media, showing how simple hair accessories can completely elevate festive looks. With minimal makeup and easy hairstyles, Alia let her colourful bows take centre stage.
Hair bows may have been around for centuries, but they slowly lost popularity as modern hair accessories like claw clips, scrunchies, and bobby pins became more common. However, with the influence of Korean dramas and vintage fashion trends, bows are making a strong comeback. Alia Bhatt is clearly leading this trend, showing that bows can be stylish, elegant, and perfect for festive occasions.
In one of her holiday looks, Alia wore a black shirt dress with green shimmer and sequin details. She kept her makeup soft and fresh with pink tones and styled her hair in a half ponytail. The highlight of the look was a green satin bow with a tiny white bow detail, which added charm to the hairstyle. Alia even shared a close-up of the accessory, captioning her post with a fun note about being in her “bows ka phase.”
For her Christmas celebration with the Bhatt and Kapoor families, Alia chose a red mule saree-style dress from a festive collection, priced at around Rs 28,000. While the outfit itself stood out, her simple styling made the biggest impact. She once again opted for a half ponytail and secured it with a classic black bow. The black bow paired beautifully with her red outfit and added a touch of elegance without overpowering the look.
Alia continued the bow trend at another Christmas party hosted by Rhea Kapoor. This time, she wore a strapless black dress with front buttons and paired it with sheer black stockings. Keeping her makeup minimal with rosy cheeks and pink lips, she styled her hair in the same effortless updo. However, she switched things up by choosing a bold red bow, which added a festive pop of colour to her black outfit.
Through these looks, Alia Bhatt showed how bows can be versatile and stylish. Whether green, black, or red, her bow choices proved that this classic accessory is back in fashion and deserves a place in every holiday wardrobe.
