Tamil Nadu’s sweetheart is a former Miss Madras and Miss India contestant. But she looked less like a model and more like the girl next door in her first few films. It can’t be argued that she looked sweet in her shapeless salwar suits but even then she showed signs of a true fashionista as she was always open to experimentation. Sure enough, she learned the tricks of the trade and she learned them well going on to become one of the best dressed stars in the South who can rock the ethnic as well as Western look with equal panache. Her look in VTV has been aped by youngsters in this part of the world and continues to be quite the rage.

Trisha has consistently favored the cutesy and chic look.
