“If you’re a fly gal, get your nails done, get a pedicure, get your hair did...” Missy Elliott is having a moment—not just at the MTV Video Music Awards, where it took only her Swarovski nails to outshine the rest, but in a studio in Worli, Mumbai, where Anushka Sharma is in the middle of a photoshoot. As Sharma steps into a Balmain feather-trimmed denim blazer, ‘Work it’ gets an encore. Sometime later, the Missy Elliott-featuring Timbaland hit, ‘Bounce’, serves as backdrop to Sharma channelling evening grunge in a Diesel bomber jacket and sequinned Namrata Joshipura pants. The mood has evolved from just an hour earlier, when ‘Shallow’ from A Star Is Born (2018) threatened to dictate the playlist as this star worked a Dolce & Gabbana lace bodysuit and skirt. For a writer waiting on the sidelines to interview her when the shoot wraps up, the synergy between the clothes and music is riveting. At some point the set lights are switched off and the stiletto-wearing siren of a minute ago slips into a white tee, striped culottes and sneakers before you can say “Francesco Scognamiglio.”
BIG LITTLE THINGS
Our Style Icon of the Year considers style an accessory to life, not the principal driver. A believer in fashion that’s believable (but not basic), Sharma’s is a covetable wardrobe you’d want to replicate. The range of athleisure staples and casual wear that she’s routinely spotted income from Bodice, Whistles, Joseph, Lovebirds and Maje, and white sneakers are more likely to show up than over-the-knee patent leather boots.
