October 22, 2025 11:56 IST

In a world obsessed with fast fashion and new drops every week, some Bollywood stars are looking back -- straight into their mom’s wardrobes.

From vintage saris to timeless salwar suits, these stars show that nothing beats heirloom glam. It’s nostalgic, it’s sustainable and it comes with a side of maa ka pyaar.

Who needs to go shopping when mom’s closet is the real glam?
