Combat the drowsiness of the heat by cashing in on some fringe benefits. Nope, we aren’t getting into your cropped mop and blunt bangs — ‘tis the season to play with sexy tassels.

Take inspiration from a recent outing of our own desi diva, Priyanka Chopra, who went fringe-hot in her deliciously blue dress. From your glamour ridden college farewell to a day spent scouring street markets for style steals — you can add cascading fringes to your outfit in varied ways.

Styling it right: If going for a black fringe dress, here’s how to look like a diva.

"Pay attention to your footwear, which should be sleek and in your accessories, go for a dash of black and platinum. Straight hair left loose and nude, clean makeup with a signature smokey eye will help you ace the look," says stylist Vikram Seth.

Vintage wonderful
Flapper flirtatiousness takes from drop-waist dresses that ruled fashion in the roaring 1920s. Fringes go back to this era, which has had a long-lasting impact on style through the ages. Turn your all-glam soiree into your own personal MET gala and go the vintage-infused fringe way. Complete with a pink pearl necklace or a cute jewelled headbang, your look is going to be hard to match!
