There was a time when this hairband was considered dowdy and typical, something you associated just with young girls.?My childhood home, for instance, had a big drawer with red, and white jersey hairbands, stacked side by side, with red ones worn only on annual days.
As my convent days came to an end in the early 20s, so did the then-dreaded fad.
But, over the last few months, this fashion accessory has become ubiquitous, showing up on my Pinterest feed, and even the pages of global fashion magazines. It¡¯s on fashion pages on Instagram, where women are seemingly identifying with ¨¤ la fictional headwear aficionado, the iconic Blair Waldorf.

Take a look at the trend has taken over social media.

Nowadays the jersey headband is more of a pragmatic staple of workout wear, but it previously occupied a venerated space in cinema during the 1990s.?Made famous by the likes of Madhuri Dixit in Dil To Pagal Hai To Rani Mukherjee in Badal and Hello Brother, the thick headband was a go-to for when your blowout mane wasn't cooperating. Then worn with a bold cat-eye flicked liner and a backcombed voluminous hairstyle, it seems today¡¯s elite are following suit.
The 'It' girls are sporting it
Although not a new trend, it seems ¡®it¡¯ girls are donning the over-ear accessory for more formal events, using them as an outfit ingredient for appearances, performances and opulent dinner dates.?Celebrities like Bella Hadid and Addison Rae have been spotted sporting them, adding a touch of flair to their looks.

With the onset of summers, it's likely we'll see more of these head-turning accessories, especially as they've gained the seal of approval from the stylish Scandi girls.?And, we can tell you, whether you want to make your outfit look expensive or you're looking for a quick fix on a lazy day, the 'oh so chic' hairband promises to elevate your style in one go.?

The trend can be traced back to the 1980s and has a lot of association with sportswear, as was seen in the movies, whether an iconic Bollywood diva was working out at home or an actress povillain playing in a college campus.
