DEV ANAND
(1923-2011)
Dev Anand's unique acting style - his quick delivery of dialogue, the serial nod of his head, and the way he walked elastically hunched over - had him loved by millions of fans. What also made him a force to be reckoned with was his signature style, which made him a major fashion icon of the 1950s and 1960s.
Whether it was the lock of hair on his crown, his sparkly scarves, or his flawless white shirts paired with loose, exquisitely tailored pants, Dev Anand's style made women swoon for him. There was a time when the frenzy reached such a point that fans started sending him blood letters and jumping off buildings, especially after seeing him in a black suit. Then he was forbidden to wear a black suit in public!
