Lisa Haydon styles after Zeenat Aman

'Zeenat Aman was Bollywood’s original flower child. She championed swinging, free-flowing locks, head bands and sunkissed skin.'

Queen actress Lisa Haydon has got her style sense spot on. Here's proof.

But few of us know who her style icons and inspirations are.

Lisa discusses her style icons in Vogue India magazine's March issue. 

We present an excerpt here.

Zeenat Aman

While her contemporaries were still stuck in the ’60s with their beehives and bold liner, this hippie ambassador was a decade ahead of the curve. 

Bollywood’s original flower child championed swinging, free-flowing locks, head bands and sunkissed skin.

At Chloe, models mimicked her laid-back radiant skin and straight centre-parted hair.

At Prada and Céline, her signature eyeliner got a graphic makeover.
