Taapsee Pannu is making waves and how. Riding high on the success of her latest movie Haseen Dillruba, the Bollywood actress also made fashionistas take note of her style snaps from her Russian vacation. And that's only the half of it. Adding to her fashion repertoire is the fact that Taapsee has been announced as the face of Vogue Eyewear in India. With zany sensibilities and a perpetual willingness to experiment, we couldn't think of anyone better. So NDTV Swirlster had a chat with Taapsee Pannu on her fashion choices and how spectacles can be a statement-making fashion accessory.
NDTV Swirlster: Glasses have always been thought of for utility so do you believe they can lend style to a look too?
Taapsee Pannu: Of course they can. Eyewear definitely adds an edge to the entire style statement because it's on your face and that's the first thing someone will notice. It is an introduction for defining someone's own individual style.

I also love wearing sarees and styling glasses with it again depending on the place I am in or the occasion.
NDTV Swirlster: Which are your favourite pieces from the collection?

NDTV Swirlster: Do you believe that being styled and looking fashionable is important for an actor today and why?
Taapsee Pannu: It is important for everyone, and not only actors, to develop their own sense of style and not follow or ape anyone, as it's always nice to have your own personality reflected in your style. So whether you are an actor or not, I think it's really nice to know what you feel the best in and what reflects your personality in the best way.
