Vijay Varma made a dramatic red carpet appearance at Dirty Cut 26, turning heads in a gothic-inspired black fringe top paired with futuristic metallic trousers.

Vijay Varma has once again stepped away from conventional red-carpet dressing, bringing a distinctly edgy take on menswear to Dirty Magazine’s annual celebration, Dirty Cut 26. The actor opted for a dark, experimental ensemble that brought together textured knitwear, dramatic fringe and metallic tailoring. Let’s take a closer look at what he wore.

Vijay Varma’s Dirty Cut 26 look

For the event, Vijay wore an intricate black lattice-knit top featuring an open diamond-grid pattern and subtle embellishments. The sheer, structured knit was layered with dramatic, cascading fringe that extended along the sides and hem, giving the outfit movement and a theatrical edge.

Vijay paired the statement knit with wide-leg metallic grey trousers. The silver-toned, leather-like finish added a futuristic element to the predominantly black outfit, while the relaxed silhouette offered a contrast to the more intricate detailing on the upper half. He completed the look with polished black dress shoes, keeping the footwear understated against the dramatic separates.

The actor has frequently experimented with unconventional silhouettes, textures and styling on the red carpet, and his Dirty Cut 26 appearance continued that approach. The combination of open-knit detailing, flowing fringe and metallic trousers created a contrast between soft, tactile textures and structured, high-shine elements.

Rather than relying on traditional suiting, Vijay’s latest look played with proportions and surface textures, reflecting the more experimental side of contemporary menswear.

About Vijay Verma

Vijay was last seen in Matka King, a crime drama directed by Nagraj Manjule, set in Mumbai's matka gambling world of the 1960s and '70s. He played Brij Bhatti, a man who rises to build a gambling empire from humble roots. Over the years, Vijay has built a strong reputation for unconventional, layered roles, with projects like Dahaad, Jaane Jaan and Darlings further cementing his image as an actor unafraid of moral complexity.
