Is Janhvi Kapoor wearing the tuxedo dress or is the dress wearing her? Subverting how one can wear a dress is kind of the point here. In her recent look from Balmain's Resort 2025 collection, the actor wore a black and white tuxedo dress with the brand's label prominent on the front. Featuring a button at the hip area and a slit at the bottom, the dress also includes pocket flaps, blending the structure of a jacket with the elegance of a dress.
This piece comes from the same collection that Gigi Hadid wore recently, with the female form embroidered on a blue dress by Olivier Rousteing. As for the black and white palette, similar dresses were prominently featured in the and Balmain 2024 collections. Many celebrities have also embraced this trend, wearing black and white ensembles at various high-profile events.
Kapoor’s choice reinterprets old-Hollywood dresses like the one worn by Audrey Hepburn in and the timeless white dress of Marilyn Monroe in.
