Amid the growing trend of celebrities being scrutinized for their airport attire, actress Wamiqa Gabbi is pushing back against this superficial pressure. She recently made headlines by discussing how she approaches her personal style and public appearances.
Wamiqa, known for her candid personality, has made it clear that she dresses for herself, not for the paparazzi or social media critics. In an interview with ANI, she shared her philosophy on fashion, saying, “I don’t take airport-look pressure. I dress up for myself. I used to think that good clothes were only for special occasions, but life is too short for that mindset. If I want to dress up every day, I will, without feeling any pressure. It’s really quite unnecessary.”
Gabbi’s refreshing take on personal style highlights a growing trend among celebrities who are choosing authenticity over public expectations. Her attitude resonates with many who feel burdened by the constant need to conform to external standards.

Reflecting on her runway debut, Wamiqa admitted, “I never imagined that my first ramp walk would be for Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla. It felt like a dream come true. I was nervous before stepping onto the ramp, but once I was out there, it all fell into place.”
