PHOTOS: Sara Ali Khan, Ananya Panday, Kareena Kapoor show how to wear polka dots

Polka dots are one of the more classicly timeless prints, and designers nowadays have been giving this staple print a makeover so that it is contemporary and modern, and not old-fashioned. In fact, polka dots date back to the mid-1990s, and we're pretty sure you know the first famous person to sport it, it was Disney's Minnie Mouse in 1928. The simple print made sporadic appearances in the past few years, but it was during the showcase of the spring and summer 2020 collections of luxury brands like Tory Burch, Kate Spade New York, Carolina Herrera, Michael Kors, to name a few, that we realised that 2020 is the year that the polka print makes a huge comeback.  Polka dots instantly remind of casual, breezy summer dresses and ooze of girl-next-door vibes. However, 2020 is the year polka dots go big, pun intended, and break the mould. Don't be afraid to mix prints with polka dots, wear a polka-dotted gown or saree, the world is your oyster. From Zoe Kravitz's sleek polka dot look at the 77th Golden Globes to Sara Ali Khan's recent outing with co-star Kartik Aryan in a cute ruffled polka dot crop top, here are some of the best celebrity looks in polka dot prints. Take a cue from the likes of Sara Ali Khan, Alia Bhatt, Ananya Panday, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Priyanka Chopra, and others, and find out the many ways in which you can style the polka dot print to match your personal style.
