The shots have captured Rekha in an all-black outfit elegantly combined with a striking white scarf and a head wrap over it. Completing the look were her signature red lips, funky sunglasses, trendy sneakers, and a stylish handbag. Indeed, that was the best comfortable-glam fusion that stamped her image within the industry as the truest of fashion icons.

Rekha's airport look reminded one of her style of the 80s, which was usually complemented by head wraps and turbans, and formed a larger part of the overall glamorous persona. These stunning accessories - since they highlighted the exquisite features on her face but also added that much-needed drama and sophistication to her looks - left the viewers in awe. Worn with intricate embellishments or simply sticking to their simple selves, Rekha's head wraps remained gracious and full of style, thus making her the trendsetter of her times.
