Spotted at the W Magazine and Dior dinner, the supermodels’ attire becomes sparks social media buzz
As the Victoria’s Secret model stepped out for dinner at W Magazine, Kendall Jenner once again found herself in the spotlight—this time for her outfit.
Wearing a vintage Dior camisole from the Fall 1998 collection, paired with black trousers and a long scarf, Jenner quickly sparked a social media frenzy.
Many users pointed out that her look closely resembled styles popular in Indian and Pakistani film industries during the early 2000s.
Social media users were quick to draw comparisons with iconic looks worn by Kareena Kapoor, arguing that western designers are now revisiting trends that were long established in the subcontinent. According to many, these designs—once widely embraced and admired—are only now gaining global recognition.
Reactions online have been mixed. Some users responded with sarcasm, others rejected the trend altogether, while many insisted that the original South Asian versions were superior.
Much of the criticism has been directed at Dior, with users accusing the fashion house of failing to acknowledge the influence of South Asian designers from the 1990s and early 2000s.
Across platforms like X and Instagram, there is growing sentiment that western brands should give due credit when drawing inspiration from other cultures.
Regardless of when these styles first emerged, many online users maintain that Bollywood and Lollywood “did it better.”
