Happy Birthday- Priyanka Chopra Fashion Evolution Will Leave You Speechless

he might be the unanimous crush of America at the moment, but things weren’t always so flawlessly stylish for the former Miss World — Priyanka Chopra.

Today, in her mid-30s, she is slaying red carpets, setting trends and inspiring millions around the world. But there was a time when she was a timid 19-year old — fresh into the world of glitz and glamour. It took her 16 years to reach the pinnacle of her success — and to be called a style icon.

Her journey is filled with failed makeovers, wardrobe disasters and hushed surgeries. Here is a look at Priyanka Chopra’s style evolution since her early days.

* Year 2000

Her Miss World crown brought her into the limelight. Little did she know that this shaky and innocent start would lead to one of the most impressive style case studies of our time.

* Year 2002 - 2004

The beauty queen made her much-hyped Bollywood debut dripping in accessories and embellishments. Her initial year in the industry was a desperate cry for attention. She did several racy shoots and even tried the goodie-two-shoe girl mantra.

Her attempts only led to embarrassing pictures that she certainly doesn't want anyone to see.

* Year 2005 - 2008

The good girl act clearly didn't work for this dusky beauty so she decided to go with the bad girl roles. Her major Bollywood breakthrough came with a negative role as a seductress.

Of course, by that time, she had realised that a few nips and tucks would be worth a shot. Her enhanced features led to a slight improvement in her fashion sense too. She ditched the conservative sarees and jewellery and opted for flattering bold cuts for public appearances.

* Year 2009 - 2012

A string of flop movies in the late-2000s led to Priyanka Chopra's several failed style attempts.

She opted for bold dresses, wore plunging necklines, cut her hair short, experimented with eyeglasses — but nothing worked.

* Year 2013 - 2015

After years of struggling with bad stylists and drab designers, Priyanka finally found her balance around 2012.

By that time, she was a superstar in Bollywood with hit movies and awards in her kitty. She was a style icon with top-notch designers and stylists at her disposals.

* Year 2016 Till Date

In late 2015, Priyanka became Alex Parrish - a gorgeous FBI recruit who took Hollywood by storm. She exuded an earthy charm and nailed every designer look she wore.

Her red carpet looks are now headlines and her dresses are amongst the most searched.

She is currently gearing up for her first Hollywood movie Baywatch and we can't wait to see her style journey unfold!
