Are Statement Sleeves Bollywood’s New Plunging Necklines?

Many trends come and go but some survive and adapt to the changing times. What started out as a means of experimentation is now something many Bollywood stars cannot do without. Statement sleeves entered the fashion arena in 2019 with some of the chicest styles making their way to the red carpet. It was in 2020 that Bollywood embraced this trend completely and showed us that you probably don't need slits and plunging necklines to draw attention after all. In 2021 these very styles are bigger and better and seems like we're only getting started. Not only is Bollywood smitten by this trend but it is safe to say that this avant-garde trend will make its way to this year's must-have trends for all to own. These celebrities define the statement sleeves trend in a fabulous avatar and we're sure you too will be inspired by it.
