Rules of dressing seem to have changed as Bollywood beauties bet on the dead butch look and the men add a feminine touch to fashion choices
Alia Bhatt, Ranveer Singh and Shruti Hassan
Gone are the days when there was a clear demarcation of what was considered feminine clothing, and what was butch. Though a woman experimenting with 'masculine' clothes is hardly new, there seems to be an uprising of sorts in the arena of men's fashion too. We recently saw Alia Bhatt showing off her feisty dance moves donning a moustache and tuxedo in the Gulaabo song from Shaandaar. Before that, we had Ranveer Singh walking into media events sporting floral prints galore. hitlist takes a cue from some fashion forward Bollywood celebs who have successfully shattered stereotypes by togging up in gender-neutral clothing...

Distress to impress
Distressed denims are all the rage and have gotten a nod from both men and women.
In fact, Alia Bhatt channeled her quirky sense of style by opting for ripped jeans with an overcoat for a recent event. Sidharth Malhotra, too, seems to be embracing the trend.
Suit bliss
Shruti Hassan gave the tux a twist of sorts and pretty much redefined rules when she walked the red carpet for an awards ceremony wearing a quintessentially male outfit.
While we give credit to Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie for bringing back his-her suits the way they did at the BAFTA Film Awards in 2014, Athiya Shetty and Sooraj Pancholi seem to be pulling off the unisex trend with panache too.
Flower ballad
Ranveer Singh gets extra points just for going big on experimentation. And though it borders on queer at times, it manages to break out of the box.
If you thought dainty, floral prints were only for the elegant female, he makes you rethink. Ranveer sported a floral print coat with lavender coloured pants with a hat and seemed to have one message for the boys: ditch the mundane.
Denim flair
Denim on denim is a fun trend to sport, but can be quite tricky in some ways.
Both genders are comfortably wearing it though. We love Kangana Ranaut's chic take on the look with a chambray shirt and Oxfords pairing.
Bandana swag
Take a leaf from Farhan Akhtar's book and team your casual outfit with a headband. Essentially considered a female accessory, an increasing number of men can be seen playing with different styles of bandanas and headbands.
We saw Priyanka Chopra walking out of the city airport sporting this particular look.
