Bollywood actor Harsh Varrdhan Kapoor is putting "casual core" back on the map, effortlessly merging laid-back style with contemporary streetwear aesthetics. As the newly appointed brand ambassador for Converse India, Harsh has been making waves with his bold, relaxed fashion choices. His recent campaign shoot showcases his mastery of the trend, featuring loose, low-waist denim jeans paired with a white shirt and a light blue denim jacket with a torn hemline. Adding a vibrant twist to the ensemble, he completed the look with striking yellow Converse sneakers, effortlessly proving that casual wear can still make a statement.



Recently, Harsh’s daring shirtless look for the same campaign has taken his "casual core" aesthetic to the next level. Flaunting his toned physique and six-pack abs, the actor opted for loose-fit, low-rise denim with his striped boxers peeking through—a throwback to the early 2000s trend now infused with a modern edge. With his confident styling and minimalist approach to accessorising, Harsh is redefining the casual wardrobe for a new generation, offering men an effortless guide to combining comfort, style, and bold attitude. Whether rocking denim-on-denim or stripped-down looks, Harsh Varrdhan is definitely taking the lead on casual approach for men’s street fashion.


If you are inspired by this causal look and wondering how pull off the low-rise loose pants trend, start by choosing a pair of jeans or cargo pants in relaxed fits that sit comfortably on the hips without being overly baggy. Pair them with cropped or tucked-in t-shirts to keep proportions balanced, or layer with a light denim or utility jacket for a rugged, street-ready vibe.

Sneakers or flat sandals are a must for this look — bright hues like Harsh’s yellow pair can add a pop of colour to neutral outfits, while classic white kicks work for understated appeal. To nail the bold, shirtless vibe, accessorise with confidence and minimal jewellery, ensuring the focus remains on the clean, casual silhouette. The casual core trend is all about effortless cool, so keep styling simple and let the relaxed fits do the talking.
