Yep, that tiny accessory you might’ve ignored before? It’s suddenly everywhere. From red carpets and award shows to intimate wedding functions, our favorite stars are using lapel pins to add that final touch of flair—and we’re here for it.


What’s even better? You don’t have to be a movie star to pull it off. These pins are easy to wear, surprisingly versatile, and instantly lift your look. So if you’ve ever thought they were “too old-school” or “not for me,” think again.


This is the year to pin your personality to your outfit—and Bollywood is leading the way.


The Lapel Pin Comeback: Small Accessory, Big Impact

Not long ago, lapel pins were just a formal-wear add-on—something you dusted off for a wedding or awards night. Fast-forward to 2025, and they’ve become mini style statements that say a lot without saying a word.


From hand-painted enamel to vintage brass, from quirky icons to cultural motifs, blazer lapel pins are now as personal as your playlist. And thanks to Bollywood’s fashion-forward tribe, they’re getting the attention they truly deserve.


Bollywood & Hollywood Celebs Who Nailed the [Lapel Pin] Look

Let’s look at how some of the most stylish men across industries have shown us that a lapel pin can steal the show, even in the company of designer suits and million-dollar smiles.


Bollywood Moments with Lapel Flair

Ranveer Singh – Star Guild Awards


At the Star Guild Awards, Ranveer stunned in a double-breasted Armani suit with a velvet shawl collar, completing his look with a lapel pin and pocket square, earning him a spot on many “best dressed” lists that night. He set a real-life example of how lapel pins can complete a formal outfit and earn best-dressed accolades.


Rajkummar Rao – Embracing Jewellery with Western Wear



Actor Rajkummar Rao made headlines when he walked the ramp shirtless, wearing a blazer paired with a chunky statement necklace or brooch, marking a bold take on men’s jewellery and courtesy of wider trend coverage referencing brooches/lapel accessories. He illustrates how men can confidently integrate brooches or lapel accessories into Western wear.


Hollywood Icons with Verified Pin Moments

Timothée Chalamet – Oscars 2020



Chalamet turned heads in a Prada zip-up blazer or  tracksuit-cum-boiler suit adorned with a vintage Cartier diamond brooch, described by Vogue as rebellion meets elegance. He stands out as a global example of a man using a brooch as a bold statement accessory.


What These Moments Teach Us

  • A pin can elevate your entire outfit, no matter how subtle or over-the-top.


  • It’s a form of self-expression—whether you’re channeling royalty, rebellion, or romance.


  • Cultural or personal symbolism goes a long way in making your pin meaningful.


  • And most importantly, lapel pins aren't just “extra” anymore—they’re essential for the modern man.


What Makes These Lapel Pins Work?

You might wonder, “It’s just a pin—what’s the big deal?” But the magic is in the details. Here’s why these pins pack such a punch:


  • Perfect Placement: Always on the left lapel—close to the heart and impossible to miss.


  • Balancing Act: Whether you pair it with a pocket square, brooch, or keep it solo, it should complement, not compete.


  • Design That Talks: From cultural symbols to edgy shapes, your pin should reflect your mood or personality.


  • Material Matters: Enamel, brass, oxidised metal, even fabric—they all bring their own vibe to your outfit.


Writer’s Tip: Let your pin do the talking. If it’s bold, skip other flashy accessories. Less is often more.


Not Just for the Red Carpet: Where Celebs Are Wearing Them

What’s exciting about this trend? Celebrities aren’t saving lapel pins just for tuxedos or black-tie events anymore.
