Sahil Salathia is one of the most fashion forward actors in the Indian film industry today. He has created a space for himself in the fashion world that is unique to himself and quite inspiring. The actor has emerged to be the new age fashion icon and the impact he has created, isn’t limited only to India. Recently, Sahil took his fashion prowess on a global stage as he attended the New York Fashion Week 2024 in the US.
With his bold, risk-taking choices, coupled with his capability to pull off literally anything, the excitement was high about how the actor would represent India and its fashion through his outfits. And the icon went way above those expectations. Here’s recalling the top 5 looks of Sahil from NYFW that had us drooling over him.
Sahil started his first appearance at the NYFW with an Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla designed black jumpsuit. What made the outfit unique were the Indian jewels embedded on it. With a low neckline, a pair of boots and sunglasses, Sahil completed the dapper look, looking like a shining star on the New York streets.
Sahil’s next look appeared quite befitting to his experimental choices and this experiment sure did pay off. The actor wore a heavily designed sherwani kurta and paired it with a flared skirt, making it an unmissable and unique look. And not just metaphorically, but Sahil quite literally stopped the traffic at the NY streets with the way he hit it out of the park with the entire look.
Siddhartha Tytler gave another stunning outfit that Sahil made more spectacular with the way he donned it. A black ensemble comprising of a baggy jacket and pajamas, complete with a full-sleeved shirt cropped just above his chest, the actor smashed the funky look, fitting in with the cool crowd.
Sahil wore an opulent white outfit with golden extensions over the cape designed by Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla. The outfit was a tribute to the historic Indian men’s fashion as well as a depiction of the country’s olden title of the ‘golden bird’. While the inspiration of the outfit speaks volumes in itself, the way Sahil carried it, he looked nothing less than royalty.
This next outfit that Sahil wore is actually the most special and creative one. The actor wore a white vest and trouser ensemble complete with a long cape, and the latter is its most special part. The cape is actually completely made from Sahil’s mother’s old Banarasi sarees. Delhi based designer Nafisa Rachel William restored Sahil’s mom’s 3 sarees which were 35 years old into this amazing cape. Along with paying tribute to his mother and the values of Indian culture, the actor looked quite the showstopper in that look.
