In Nachiket Barve

January 2nd, 2010 at 8:53 pm . by Payal

The last day of 2009 (and the beginning of 2010) saw Ash still sticking to pink (sort of) while attending Sonali Bendre’s birthday bash. Of all the pink we’ve seen her in, this ombre version with the purple sure is a tad better. Abhishek balanced wifey’s color by sticking to white.

P.S. You can catch her wearing her first Nachiket at IIFA here and Sonali wearing a variation here.

    OMG She’s looking smashing hot!!! And it’s looking like she’s losing weight again, giving some rest to those nasty “preggers” rumors!! I loved it 9.5/10

  2. Carol says:

    Yes, pink again which is my least favorite color. But she looks beautiful and casually elegant.

    Abhishek has lost weight and looks good.

  3. Antonia says:

    The dress is perfect for Aishwarya. She looks like a goddess.
    She looks so much better in it than the models.
    One of my favourite looks of hers after ages.

    • KK says:

      I agree.. she looks really good. I also think that her darker hair makes her look so much younger! I hope she doesn’t color her hair light brown again.

  4. Tina says:

    The color is lovely on her! Footwear not looking too good- just from what little i can see. seems like she wearing platform slip-ons of some sort?
    i wish she would wear she would wear a herve leger- i think it would really make her look a little more edgy and sexy. so sick of seeing the pinks and pastels goody goody clothes on her:(

    • SK says:

      arrrgh!
      no more herve leger please… im sick of seeing our bollywoodies wear the same style again and again!
      let the gauries nd priyankas stick to herve leger!
      not liking this dress dress on ash but thats coz ths dress itself is lackluster.

  5. Stuti says:

    I like it on her, I have to say.

  6. Fashionluvver says:

    I like the model’s length soo much better. The long version looks boring.

  7. pdaervo says:

    She looks good, though the silhouette is suspicious once again…

    • Anu says:

      Me thinking same thing… especially suspicious silhouette + flat sandals. Comfy Comfy.

      Is there a better pic from this night? I am soooo curious to know what is in Ash’s left hand. Present for Sonali? Navy handbag? or a Martini glass with handbag…hehehehe ..y not?

      • Carol says:

        I saw more pictures from the party and Ash has a present in her hand.

        BTW, Sonali is wearing something that looks like a caftan or a kimono. So I guess it was not a dress up party but more of a casual evening at home party.

  8. grozny says:

    Slightly better yes, but for a major star who has access to practically anything….this is still very disappointing. I guess what it boils down to is, either you’ve got it, or you don’t….and Ash just doesn’t! I wish she would at least let someone who actually does know, help her out.

  9. Bella says:

    Love it.

    Would also love to see her in purple, lilac, orange, yellow, maroon, blues and sea greens. White too.

  10. deviousdiv says:

    OMG Abhishek shaved! HELLO HANDSOME.

  11. richa says:

    OMG! How fantastic does she look!!!!!! My Favourite Ash look in a long time! She positively looks radiant…. way to go Ash! SHe rocks this Nachiket Dress.

  12. payal says:

    I love this look! She looks elegant, beautiful and her age after long… enough of the Auntyji saris. FABULOUS!

  13. Aditi says:

    she looks pretty and elegant.

  14. diptiN says:

    I like, agree about the hair color, she looks much better going darker. I think she is wearing fuchsia colored flats, which gives a great casual look to a long dress. Abhi looks OK, at least he is wearing a white shirt.

  15. Prem Rogue says:

    I’m surprised so many seem to like this. With that shapelessness it really looks like a nightgown to me, especially because of those little frills on the neckline. They look odd as a pair at this event; him wearing torn jeans and a casual shirt, her in what looks like something that wants to be a semi-formal dress but ends up looking like a nightgown.

    • Rock~n~Rose says:

      U took the words outta my mouth… Minus AB… this would have looked like a pic from Vitcoria’s secret website!

      • SS says:

        Totally! I was wondering the same thing…WHATS to like in it?? its some maxi night gown…or very fancy swim wear cover up….me no likey…but Im thinking we are the miniority here…..

  16. Aqua says:

    I thought it was common knowledge that you look into the camera when you pic is being clicked… I guess Ash either doesn’t know that or thinks that AB’s face is the camera… i mean honestly.. phew!

  17. SK says:

    the derss is so blah. credit to ash for making it work. she really can make the most atrociuos garment work – as proven by the horrendous grey frock from nachiket.

    • madhu says:

      Oh Please! it doesnt have to scream “Sex Bomb” everytime .. its soft elegant and chic.. The grey dress was very polished too.. She messed up with hair and shoes i Felt. This dress rocks though!

      • SK says:

        never said she shud do sex bomb! infact ash really never does sex bomb…not her style.
        in my opinion the dress looks gud coz ash wears it well… thats all. on another celeb this dress wud have fallen flat.

  18. NFashionB says:

    Dress was better in short lenght.
    She looks same..nothing special appears to me.Overly makeup..

  19. Anu says:

    It should have been the shorter length. It looks like a shapeless night gown.

  20. monika says:

    She is looking nice. Wish we had a better picture.

  21. madhu says:

    Fabulous understated style.. i love Nachikets clothes.. Its definitely a refreshing change from the prom like stuff that one gets in Western wear here… I am sick of the Barbie doll look that most actresses seem to favour. This definitely works for me. I have bought Nachikets dresses and they work like magic on most body types… especially for those who dont want the clingy slutty dresses that look Blech on Indian bodies!

  22. SS says:

    The color looks lovely on her, and I love the soft feminine quality of the dress.

  23. aishwarya says:

    though d dress itself s a diaster it luks quite on ash……

  24. Sharin says:

    Love it I think this dress is perfect for her.. she looks casually elegant and chic. Love the LA vibe this dress has.

  25. Mayuri says:

    Ash looks good! Loving the gown, great color and flattering silhouette!

  26. hhc-addict says:

    Except for the color – a lackluster dress. And the silhouette again suspicious

  27. Sheena says:

    Wow!

    Fantastic.. well done Ash and Nachiket! Its so effortlessly chic! LOVE LOVE LOVE!

    Nightgown? R u Kidding? Its totally party when u want to have a good time and not look like u r going for the oscars! What else would she wear for a New Years/ Birthday bash? A full skirted prom gown? LOL … First time I see her looking and hopefully feeling chilled out yet glamourous… I want… where to get? Pl tell…

  28. Ani says:

    Love Love Love the look !!
    She seems sexy, sultry & splendid !
    & Abhishek…Whoa….clean shaven look Rocks !!

  29. vandana says:

    I like the dress.. wish we had a better picture to see how the silhouette actually worked. But is it me, or are you guys tired of the whole lovey dovey look she keeps giving her hubby. It’s like she’s trying too hard or something.

    But the color is awesome.

  30. Saya says:

    Don’t like the dress much. But Ash looks lovely. The hair is perfect do for the dress.

    The hate comments are getting worse. If she’s looking at her husband? that trying too hard. Like for what? People, get a life, seriously!!!

  31. Sharin says:

    Yea why is she ALWAYS looking at him?

  32. maya says:

    toooo long. the model looks so much better in the shorter version.

  33. priya says:

    OMG!!!! Stunning… I have never seen Aishwarya look so elegant yet at ease… like she is not trying to look fab, but at ease with herself…. Stunning STunning Stunning dress… I saw Nachikets collection online called
    Toxin and it was the most beautiful collection I have seen in a long time… SO glad she is wearing fresh new look rather than the same Gauri Nainika type prom dresses… Fantastic!
