As an honorary member of the ’90s kids club, I can vouch for the fact that the worst fashion era to have ever existed was the 2000s. The sleek eyebrows, glossy lips, chunky jewellery, embroidered jeans, fringes, and jeans under dresses were some of the worst things to have happened in the world of fashion. But while I downright abhor that particular fashion era, I cannot disregard the fact that I get nostalgic looking back at it.
For example, a picture of Anne Hathaway from 2004 has struck a chord with a lot of desi people on social media. This was one of her red-carpet looks after the release of her film ‘Ella Enchanted’.
Anne Hathaway is seen in a very long embroidered pink top which can work either as a kurta or a dress. She paired it with bootcut denims, and this is basically every Indian teenager and college-going girl from the 2000s. This reminded a lot of people of Kangana Ranaut from ‘Queen’ and Deepika Padukone from ‘Love Aaj Kal’. Here’s how some of them reacted to her picture:

Can’t believe that Anne Hathaway pulled off Deepika Padukone from ‘Love Aaj Kal’!
