Fashion alert: Aamir Khan's quirky 'Ghagra' in PK becomes a statement

We have all heard of a saying, dress to kill and the way Aamir Khan has dressed up in his latest release, PK will do exactly that.

Yes! because nobody messes with a man in a skirt. After making a bold fashion statement on-screen by wearing a mustard coloured 'ghagra' at the bottom and shirt with a jacket at the top, Aamir Khan's quirky costume has taken off on the runway as well.

PK which released on Dec 19, 2014 stars Aamir Khan and Anushka Sharma.

Yes, the new age concept is not girly anymore but has become a big hit among fashion designers who are looking foward to creating more variety in men's collection.

As drag queen RuPaul says, we are born naked; the rest is just drag. There are a lot of advantages in dressing up in one piece or teaming up your chic shirt with a long colourful festive skirt like maybe hiding those flabs or having more options in that closet.

Strictly for men: 3 models strut on the runway in little dresses.

While watching London Fashion Week 2013, I saw three attractive girls wearing dark earthy thigh length dresses with matching knee-high boots, but wait a second, when I looked at them more closely, I soon realised that they were men. And very confident ones.

And then, we all witnessed Rohit Bal's wedding outfits for the groom this year. The floor length achkan with a contrast long skirt made the groom look more traditional and Indian. And didn't look gay or like a greek soldier or like an alien like the one from PK at all.

Fashion designer Rohit Bal introduces the all new groom collection.

If you are ordinary you will dress up like an ordinary, but 2015 demands that you step up, look good and make a difference. The style that began in Greece and London has now arrived in Bollywood and at Indian weddings.

Quirky or trendy?

So, time to get the ball rolling and wait and watch whether perfectionist Aamir Khan will make the men's ghaghra a trend on the streets of India.
