Now we know who has inspired our Khan to be the shirtless wonder. Salman confessed that he wanted to wear a kilt like Dharmendra did in Dharam Veer for his forthcoming film Veer but chickened out. It takes a lot of guts to wear it and ride a horse.

However, the fashion icon himself is not the one who get tied down by the current fashion trends. He says, “I like to dress as per my age.

"There’s no specific brand that I love to sport but comfort is of utmost importance to me. I love to wear jeans. But not many people know that even while I am seen wearing a suit, shirt, formal trousers, I skip wearing socks with my shoes. I find socks really cumbersome and irritable. So, I go sans socks but fully suited-booted",confessed the macho man.

But when asked whether he will be ready to walk the ramp as a showstopper for any designer? The paaji of bollywood heartily replies, being visible is a part of entertainment. If need be, why not?

SRK’s always been associated with style and panache; someone who doesn’t follow fashion trends but makes a fashion statement. The ‘cool’ neckpiece became even cooler when he wore it in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai and his ponytail look and six-pack abs are still making news.

What makes it even more endearing is that even after all this, the actor is too modest to accept being called glamorous, which is why he thinks people around him are more glamorous than him!

"If you have personal style, whatever you wear will look stylish." - Shah Rukh Khan, when he bagged the Glam Personality of the Year Award at the Reebok Zoom Glam Awards 2008.

Afterall, he is not called the King Khan without a reason. Apart from
being the top superstar in Bollywood, Shahrukh Khan is also considered
India’s best-dressed star.

B-Town Boys bond over denims

Guess what all the B-Town boys of Bollywood including Shah Rukh Khan, Aamir Khan, Hrithik Roshan, Akshay Kumar, Shahid Kapoor, Saif Ali Khan, Arjun Rampal and Riteish Deshmukh are bonding over this season? It’s their beloved denims.

Summers are back with a bang and as the mercury rises, distressed jeans is the ‘hottest’ trend on the fashion circuit.

Everyone who’s anyone is flaunting their torn jeans and, boy, do they look sexy! “It’s a very cool and well-loved style after all,” points out Bollywood’s favourite designer Shabina Khan. “The basic point is to look hot. Torn jeans give men a macho look while making women look very sexy,” she adds.

Agreeing with Shabina, designer Surily Goel says, “Frayed jeans give the wearer a nice, relaxed feel, especially considering the season. Teamed with a plain white shirt or T-shirt, it makes for an ultra trendy look.”

And summer’s not the only excuse. The current economic meltdown too has to some degree influenced the resurgence of this trend. Designer Narendra Kumar points out that the grunt look was the fashion statement that really stood out during the last recession in the 80s.

“This is a more updated version of that grunt look. It’s, in fact, a pleasant mix of the 80’s style fashion — which, incidentally, is also totally in vouge right now — and the grunt look,” he explains.

Adding to this, designer Shahid Aamir says the distressed jeans are a pleasant change from the well-tailored dressing norm. “Frayed jeans on a sexy body are definitely a fashion statement. It’s all about the attitude,” he adds.

If you’re one of those who thinks this too is a fashion fad that will fade away in just a few months, you’re mistaken. While most designers think this is an eternally classic style...it is here to stay!!!
