Sapna Kumar
Why? Most models have designers to thank for their style—or lack of it. But this hottie is as seriously cool off the ramp as she is on it.
19
Mallika Sherawat
Why? Two years ago, Mallika and the word style wouldn’t have appeared on the same page. In recent times, she’s tilted the style stakes in her favour.
18
Soha Ali Khan
Why? Good genes, and good judgement—Soha has both. She lets her shape and her personality dictate her wardrobe, not trends.
17
Priyanka Gandhi
Why? Because she demonstrates that you don’t have to be OTT to be cool; her style is more elegant than funky, but she carries it off with flawless flair.
16
Neha Kapur
Why? She could give stylists a run for their money, with her easy blend of sexy and casual off the ramp. On it, of course, she’s a scorcher.
15
Chitrangada Singh
Why? She’s Bollywood’s next big thing, we think, and her style is understated sexy, which scores way higher than practiced-sexy.
14
Anoushka Shankar
Why? Her style is as eclectic as her looks, and that’s no accident—She knows to play up the unpredictable rather than stick to the mundane.
13
Deepika Padukone
Why? Deepika’s style is unfussy; she uses flowy fabrics, strong colours and minimal add-ons to accentuate her look. It clearly works!
12
Aishwarya Rai
Why? She’s got her style act together over time, and she sure knows how to play up those eyes. The toned body and hourglass shape don’t hurt either.
11
Priyanka Chopra
Why? She’s one of the very few women we haven’t caught out in a style faux pas ever, and that’s really saying something!
10
Kareena Kapoor
Why? She beat genetic style sins to emerge a fashion front-runner in Bollywood. She’s got attitude and the body to go with it, and flaunts both.
09
Preity Zinta
Why? Preity understands style like few others; you’ll never see her overaccessorised or over-labelled, though she owns every brand that counts.
08
Nina Manuel
Why? She can switch from playful to girly to flirty, to oh-my-god hot in seconds; she is seriously versatile and that makes her hugely sexy.
07
Anusha Dandekar
Why? She made television look hipper than it ever had with her funky take on style on MTV; she mixes her own brand of spark and spunk with rack-bought outfits to create a distinctive style
06
Lara Dutta
Why? She looks hotter in jeans than most women look in couture; Lara has effortless written all over her, and the ability to look well put-together without taking herself too seriously. It shows.
05
Sonam Kapoor
Why? She’s fashion’s next big muse, trust us. She’s honed her slightly awkward style to a celebration of her young, fresh-faced looks, and looks set to achieve big things this year. We’re waiting to say we told you so.
04
Katrina Kaif
Why? It’s almost impossible to look innocent, sensuous and elegant all at once, but Katrina shows us how it’s done. First, there’s that flawless face. Then, hefty doses of sartorial sense. And finally, a smile to kill for.
03
Bipasha Basu
Why? Because she dares. To experiment with her clothes, her hair, her makeup, her body. Bipasha doesn’t know the meaning of the word stale, and if there’s a chameleon in our style universe, it’s her.
02
Malaika Arora
Why? If our mommies had looked anything like this hot mom does, we’d be on this list instead of writing it! Malaika knows how to play up every single asset worth highlighting in a way that makes us green.
01
Sushmita Sen
Why? Because style is about a razor-sharp mind as much as it’s about a hot body, killer attitude, and the nerve to match it all. Sush has gone from fit and fabulous at 18, to sexy and secure at 30something, and with a decade of fabulousness in between that still inspires girls across the country to dream bigger, better, bolder. She showed you can live the life of a queen without being born a princess, and that is an achievement hard to equal. Take a bow…
