Brocade Fever!

Comment image 29


When Priyanka first sported the look in ‘Dostana’, we were too distracted by all that velvet Manish Malhotra had been doing and sure didn’t spot brocade creep up on us!

Who knew brocade cholis would be the next big thing in every movie that Manish Malhotra had a hand in?!

P.S. Wonder what these ladies feel about having the same look as the other.

  1. i love the thicker straps on priyanka, and since she was the first we saw it on, she def fares well above the rest.
    Kareena wears it w/ confidence in the promos and looks great! i think the only diff between all of them is that amrita is a bit shorter, and those are really ugly sandals…

  2. …you know, it may have been Manish Malhotra, but Priyanka looked HOT in that song- a little but of weight is very sexy on her
    I’ve never been able to bring myself to like Amrita (Vivah much? *shudders*) and Kareena looks…sort of frigid

  4. Brocade blouses/cholis have been around forever, but their newest avataar is only for the screen. Who wears such bra-like cholis is real life marriages/ function.

  5. Those were my exact thoughts when i saw the promos of Kambakht ishq and knew it had to be MM for repeating the look on every actress .. I have a certain liking for brocade cholis, though obviously longer ones and not these minimal ones ( Aishwarya in the movie Shabd anyone ??)

  6. I like Kareena’s because she’s carrying herself really well there. If hers and Amrita’s had thicker straps, i’d so love them.

  7. broade kameezes have been out in u.k for a year now, I really like them

    Loved priyanka’s dostana song outfits, specially the red one. the bra blouse was okay for the song, but not anywhere else.

    Amrita is looking stinning in this movie, shame about the shoes, why black??

  8. Agreed Priyanka did look pretty Hot in that Song!!

    Also , why on earth is Kareena always pouting? Somebody please tell that woman that she looks some much better when smiling.

    • funnyboneFashionista,
      While its true that Aki Narula has styled the movie, this outfit on Kareena is by Manish Malhotra. Just because Aki is the stylist doesn’t mean Kareena is wearing his clothes.

  12. Forget the choli, all their skirts are the same too!!
    If you ask me, i think Amrita looks better ignoring her shoes.
    Kareena’s choli is too “pulled up” and looks very uncomfortably tight.
    Priyanka’s look is ok, nothing mind blowing, nothing wrong either.

  13. Manish Malhotra is the most over-hyped person/’designer’ in India! He does not deserve to be called a designer!! You can get these lehenga, bra/choli combos at any lehenga shop, and better designed and less gaudy too! Rohit Bal, Sabyasachi, Manish Arora should be designing for movies as they have real imagination.

  14. when i first saw dostana and that particular song with priyanka wearing that, i was ashamed to the max cus it felt like the clothes are always getting shorter and shorter movie after movie. i wouldn’t have cared if a chunni/duppata had been covering her up but to be out in the open on the screen was a lil too much for me. i can take short shorts or mini skirts but not these bra tops. thats just a little over the top for me.

  15. Priyanka’s figure looks really good here.. more so than Kareena.. Amrita actually looks ok body wise but I hate her shoes as Kismett mentioned.

  16. I used to only like sleeve-blouses though these newer cholis are looking great too. Maybe I am changing my mind. All three ladies look gorgeous.

  17. its funny how comments are made about the actresses, and soo much criticism of a designer. yes looks are important but not to the point of observing every detail in the dress . half the time the movies doesnt sell becoz of the script. too much emphasis on looks in modern india.

  18. I like Kareena’s look better. Kareena’s body looks better and hotter than that of Priyanka’s……….. Priyanka looks weird.
