Events: Imran Khan's wedding reception

Who: Kiran Rao, Ursual from The little mermaid

Is it just me or does anyone else see the resemblance between Kiran's skirt and Ursula's tentacles? I always figured Kiran was an alien:-) Her dressing sense is out of this world (geddit, geddit??)

Who: Sonakshi Sinha, Katrina Kaif, Vidya Balan

Sonakshi and Katrina are elegant in their incredibly delicate anarkalis. I really like the color contrast of the deep red bodice in the Tarun Tahiliani outfit that Katrina is wearing.
Vidya wore a Sabyasachi anarkali to the event. No the anarkali and her crimped hair.

Who: Twinkle Khanna, Preity Zinta, Suzanne Khan

Twinkle is a knockout in her bright pink dress. Not only is the color gorgeous but I also like the cut of her beautifully tailored outfit. Perfectly paired with brown peep-toes and gold layered necklace.
Preity - Looking pretty as always!!
I am surprised to see Suzanne in a Ritu Kumar which has been previously seen on Neha Dhupia as well as on Diana Haydon. Its a pretty outfit but I can only see it so many times:-)

Who: Madhuri, Deepika Padukone, Priyanka Chopra

I like Madhuri's color combination. Not sure about her clutch or shoes..
Deepika always looks good when she is not in a bridesmaid dress.
The design and embroidery of Priyanka's outfit give it a very tacky effect. I also feel this kind of long top only looks good in anarkali style.

Who: Gauri Khan, Kareena Kapoor, Rani Mukherjee, Genelia D'souza

Gauri in an outfit that is not OTT and harsh orange in color. How did this happen?
Kareena sparkles and shines in a net saree with glittering sequins. The sequins are really the star of this outfit elevating a basic black saree. It also helps that gorgeous Kareena is wearing it..
Rani wore a Sabyasachi saree. Not a big fan of this mustard yellow color.
Genelia wore a great color but she looks under-dressed for the event.

Who: Ameesha Patel, Anushka Sharma

What a surprise - Ameesha in a outfit that is not attention-seeking!! I hope she keeps it up.
Anushka wore a short grey dress with sequins and kept her makeup and accessories minimal. The dress, though not a knockout, is pretty and flattering. She paired the dress with smart black shoes.

Who do you think was the best dressed at the event?

Daily catch

Who: Rani Mukherjee
Where: At Durga Puja

Wow! Rani is really glowing! I love her gorgeous makeup more than the Sabyasachi sari. Looking sweet and simple at the puja(prayer meeting)..

Who: Chitrangada Singh
Where: Launch of Tanisq new range

Chitrangada wore a bandage dress for the launch of Tanishq new watch collection. Love the pairing of the dress with nude shoes but not sure if the skinny belt was required. Again, gorgeous nude makeup with a hint of blush..
What do you think - does the belt enhance the look or is it distracting??


Who: Deepika Padukone
Where: Launch of Tissot new model

Another watch launch, this time by Deepika. The coral color looks really great on her but somehow the dress has a very tacky/cheap look to it..

Who: Celina Jaitley
Where: Eygptian tourism party

Celina in a floral sari which looks like two different window curtains proving the theory that even window curtains/treatments can be recycled!!
On the bright side she experimented with her hair:-) And this is one instance when she needed her big bindi as her makeup looks pale..

Who: Priyanka Chopra
Where: At the launch of her Avataar by UTV interactive

Priyanka is back in her uniform of short dresses. All her red carpet looks are starting to roll into just one typical dress, sigh..
Doesn't the print remind you of TV static before TV went digtal? Maybe she is sending signals to aliens..With those shoes, even they wont welcome her on their planet!!

Delhi Couture Week'10 - Sabyasachi

The Delhi Couture week 2010 started today with Sabyasachi Mukherjee's textile-driven collection. From the few pictures that are available, it looks like the collection had all the Sabyasachi trademarks - earthy colors, lots of layering, minimal makeup, one common accessory worn by every model - this time it was an Indian style hat with zardozi work. Quoting the designer himself - "The line is very romantic and gives the feel of a museum, something that is period, Victorian or simply antique". Here are some pics.

The Collection



Sabyasachi with his muses - Rani Mukherjee and Vidya Balan
Vidya looks pretty in a red saree and Rani is wearing a black jumpsuit with some major bling bling. I assume both are wearing Sabyasachi since it would be a little awkward if someone asked Vidya who she was wearing and she sweetly said "Manish Malhotra" :-)

Aishwarya and Abhishek- Raavan Premiere at London

Updated with more pics of Aishwarya at Raavan Premiere, London






Who: Aishwarya and Abhishek
Where: Raavan London premiere

That looks like a Sabyasachi and as predicted in black:-) The blouse is too busy for me becoz of the sleeves and the saree gives a very deja-vu feeling. The design of having an embellished skirt/body and a plain net wrap-around (palu) has been done to death by Sabyasachi:(

Do have to say, I love her hairstyle and she looks stunningly beautiful..So what do you guys think??

What will Ash wear?

Raavan will have its premier on June 16th in London and I cannot wait to see what Ash will wear. Going by her last few appearance, she seems to have overdosed on Sabyasachi!! Since its a Bollywood premier, I think she will wear a saree, by either Sabyasachi or Manish Malhotra, in her colors - gold, black, pink or blue:-)

Here are some of my picks for her - none by Manish or Sabysachi, there is more to Indian designers then just them!!

Right: Abu - Sandeep collection

Yellow is the color of the moment ever since SJP wore it to the SATC2 premier. Even though Ash has never worn such a bright yellow, you never know she might surprise us all..

So what do you think she will wear?? If she wears a gown now, I will personally fly down to London and whoop her ass:-)
