So Kendall and Kylie Jenner’s vintage T-shirt line, featuring bands like The Doors, with the faces of the sisters printed alongside, may have been in poor taste, but the duo did make a strong case for the ‘band tee’ trend, by showing up at events dressed in shirts bearing prints of Slayer and AC/DC among others. Also spotted sporting the rock ‘n’ roll look recently were celebrities like Kristen Stewart, Gigi Hadid and even Celine Dion. Here’s how you can get in on the action, with tees that can set you back by up to Rs.22,000.

If, like Jimi Hendrix, music is your religion, we suggest you add this tee to your wardrobe. The lace-up plunging neckline makes it a trendy piece to own, while the sleeves are crafted for comfort. Rs.1,500 approximately. At Forever 21, Magrath Road. Details: 41104473
Kurt to the chase
This tee from R13 bears a print of the iconic Kurt Cobain on fabric made with a blend of Japanese-sourced cotton and cashmere. The shirt is crafted for a boxy fit ensuring comfort while also being rock-n-roll-ready. Rs. 22,050 approximately on netaporter.com
On a roll
Reclaimed Vintage Inspired gives this Rolling Stones T-shirt a sexy update with a lace-up neckline that cuts through the iconic bold red print on the front.
