Deepika on Verve:(Un)Covered

September 1st, 2010 at 5:45 pm . by Payal

We may not have been fans of the Harper’s cover but loving Ms. Padukone on the September Bridal special edition of Verve India. Ms. Padukone wears a hot off the couture runway Anamika Khanna lehenga with a velvet blouse.

P.S. What is it about the bridal issues that makes Verve also feature Vuitton on the cover. Remember this? A subtle way of implying that only Vuittons can help carry the heavy duty bridal wear? :P

Kangana on Grazia India: (Un)Covered

August 14th, 2010 at 2:19 pm . by Payal

It’s been exactly a year since Ms. Ranaut featured on Grazia India and while it was a fierce look in a Dolce & Gabbana dress last year, this time around it’s a more subdued mood in Namrata Joshipura pants and top. I, for one, especially like that instead of going for a runway look, the stylist paired the bubble-sleeve top with the slouchy pants.

Genelia on South Scope:(Un)Covered

August 9th, 2010 at 9:16 pm . by Payal

We expect a photoshoot to go a lil’ beyond the norm but South Scope sure screwed this one up with the weird ruching and the curl overdose on Genelia (a la Priyanka).

Shruti on Marie Claire:(Un)Covered

We can’t think of anyone better who’d suit the rock chic theme better than Ms. Haasan, can you?

Catch her whole editorial inside. Thanks ‘Marie Claire India’.

Trisha In South Scope: Decoded

July 22nd, 2010 at 9:18 am . by Payal

Trisha makes her Bollywood debut tommorow opposite Akshay Kumar in ‘Khatta Meetha’. The south star who has featured in a lot of Tamil and Telugu movies was featured in South Scope magazine styled by designer Chaitanya Rao.

While, I love the pieces Chaitanya chose for Trisha, am so horribly disappointed to see the beautiful Anand Kabra sari paired with jeans (see inside). Don’t get me wrong, I love fusion, but this is sacrilege! (Ok ok, am overreacting, but the sari is just so purrrrty.)

Oddly enough, I also couldn’t help but remember Shilpa’s Cine Blitz cover on seeing the last pic of Trisha wearing the Chaitanya Rao ensemble (see inside).

Kangana on Harper’s Bazaar: (Un)Covered

July 21st, 2010 at 8:43 pm . by Payal

She may have kept it simple and sweet yesterday but there is nothing simple about Ms. Ranaut on the latest Harper’s Bazaar. Love it!

Rani on L’Officiel India:(Un)Covered

July 18th, 2010 at 1:08 pm . by Payal

Ms. Mukherjee covers the latest issue of L’Officiel India in a gold Dolce & Gabbana. The glove and fascinator are a great addition, but Rani’s make-up doesn’t match up to the Vintage Glamour theme. You like?

Neha Dhupia For Grazia: (Un)Covered

July 7th, 2010 at 1:10 am . by Priyanka

Pastels and soft covers might be the norm but boy does Neha bring some “fierce” to the soft palette of Grazia’s latest cover. It was about time Ms. Dhupia got a cover!

Grazia like almost always nailed it. And Neha is Fab! We love it.

Sonam in Marie Claire:(Un)Covered

July 6th, 2010 at 10:10 pm . by Payal

Another magazine, another cover. It isn’t the first and it definitely won’t be the last.

Do you also feel that the bikini top is too jarring for the soft feminine ensemble?

You can catch the article by Manjula Narayan Here and the editorial inside.

Update: The neckpiece is by Nitya Bajaj.

Genelia on Elle India:(Un)Covered

Genelia graces the July edition of Elle India looking fierce in Stella McCartney. This should be a good editorial.

Thanks ‘Divya’ for the pic.
