Fab Or Drab?
October 14th, 2009 at 2:50 am . by PriyankaOn anyone else that pencil skirt with the gathered/extra fabric in front would have been ridiculous and ridiculously unflattering, not so on Kiran. It totally fits her off kilter and rather funky style aesthetic, and she wears it with élan. Love.
And that kimono top is hot. As are those Loubs. Luurve. It’s an absolute ‘Fab‘ from me! You?

You can’t be serious? That skirt is odd when looked at closely and the top just doesn’t cut it because of her hair etc. To pull that off she should’ve done something different with her hair. Except the shoes it looks way off from head to toe.
I agree… On anyone else I would have considered this as fashion forward.. but the vibes i get from Kiran scream “THESE ARE LABELS SO ADMIRE ME ALREADY”
Honestly, it looks like she wore the skirt back side front!
Yes, and are floppy arms, unkempt hair, weird posture elan? Each to their own I guess…
And 60 comments…for this???? Damn
P&P…I hate to disagree this time…Nothing works for me….It all falls flat. She looks like a wanna-bee!
what? looks like she borrowed it from her mom’s closet. so not celebrity!
pnp hav lost their marbles!!!
even though those loubs seem outta place… I still think i appreciate her style!!
A pair of black pumps would have worked better
the skirt totally kills the look.. reminds me of a kangaroo
Its a definite drab for me.
Ha! Ha! Fab? Ha! Ha!
erm – apart from the shoes the whole outfit is a bit of a mess, the skirt is ill fitting and the blouse looks like its at least 2 sizes too big -its refreshing not to see the usual identikit bolly style but really this is just a mess.
” you can’t be serious???” overkill when it comes to funky, the loubs are the the only good thing about look
3 inches shorter.. and it would have totally worked!
sej sez it
an absolute DRAB!!
its horrendous !!… coudn’t have been worse…
totally agree with Sej! she looks horrendous as ALWAYS! and to top it all she has very unladylike postures
Ew No!! hate the outfit…..to me it qualifies to be a WTHeyyy! Love the shoes though.
i just dnt like it its luk funny .. na na
it takes a person with an open mind to appreciate her style…love that abt u guys p&p :). not everyone has to dress like a socialite or fashionista.. her quirky style is quite fun… makes life more interesting ;)
agree
and with sonal…post below this
then again people with open minds are capable of appreciating pretty much everything…..im not sure ‘pnp’ do that so much usually….take the case of the many women they LOVE to hate…
True true..
Hey that ‘True True’ is for Dewani !
Agree…style has way more to do with personality and feeling than just the clothes you wear
There are no “rules” to fashion (which is why I hate the term “fashion victim” because it’s about the person being confused, not the clothes being “ugly”)
I think she looks fab- an open aesthetic needed
i dont feel she has any style sense, let alone quirky…..m still waiting to see if she can pull off one look in entirety….such a mess
Very original..not run of the mill…thats why many people won’t like it.The skirt has an extra fold…..as design…it is fitting otherwise.Shoes are adefinite fab.But i wish hair was done differently and she needs to change her glasses too.
NAH!! dun like the look at all
Absolutely ridiculous looking ! she looks most uncomfortable in what she’s wearing as well, but for the shoes everything else about this outfit including the glasses are a big thumbs down.
DRAB
Wearing ill fitting clothes does not create a funky style aesthetic. She looks like a sloppy school teacher – even the most basic skirt is not properly fitted and the top just looks too big for her especially the overlong sleeves.
The shoes are nice though.
its a DRAB……………..
what an ugly outfit.
apart from the loubs – its a complete disaster!
WHACKO!!!
Fab ?? Oh puhleez! She reminds me of my high school librarian….
I think the whole look is extremely drab – the specs make her look grannyish and the hair do dosn’t help much either, I’m not sure whats up with the top, looks like a pyjama suit top and the skirt is ill fitting.
Given that this is a lady who has had some difficulties as of late, I think that she looks fab. I love the entire Khan (as in Aamir) clan :) They are all so individual.
really? i thought she looked DRAB being lost in all that fabric.
Are you kidding me? everything looks off! just terrible..had you not mentioned that they were loubs..noone would have even noticed!..top to bottom..hideous hideous and hideous….
i liked everything except her glasses. but i think she usually wears funky, signature glasses like that, right?
i agree with Sej that you should have changed the hair.
i meant to say “SHE should have changed the hair”, not “you should have”. haha what is wrong with me today?
yikesss..drab completely drab
Love it! Finally someone with their own personality take on her dress.
Love it! Color and style is neat. I would go for a pencil skirt though.
This outfit is a mess. Neither the skirt nor the top fit her.
YUKKKKKK!
I cant stand those glasses of hers… And I wont still go to the outfit.
A hot mess, no doubt
so supper ugly -starting from mean aunty glasses to ill fitting over sized blouse to hidious skirt -hhc has gone blind can be serious about likeing this look!
I say FAB!! I loved her look too…I don’t think anyone else could’ve pulled it off..Maybe its just me, but I usually like what she wears. I’d actually wear something like this myself!
p.s. I really LOVED the sandals she was wearing when she came out to vote with Aamir. Wonder where I can find something like that :p
When you guys are biased,you make no bones about it :)
No that kimono top doesn’t go with that skirt. I don’t think the top is supposed to be tucked in, and that skirt just looks so bizarre! What is funky about her style? Nothing. Its just odd; with that hair and her glasses she looks like a Grandma trying to dress mod.
I love when people experiment with styles, as long as the clothes fit properly. I know the pencil skirt is designed with the pleats, but it really does look ill-fitting. I like what she was going for, but the clothes simply don’t fit correctly.
Draaaab! I like her otherwise for not having a herd mentality and like her individualistic style – not this time…
LOL!!! just a look at this pic made me laugh…whats so FAB about it????
yucccckkkkkkkkk
how can this be called fab??
its aa mess
I LOVE Kiran Rao’s style! She exudes confidence and its reflected in her individualistic clothing choices. I hope to see more posts of cool people like her besides actresses and socialites, i.e. artists, journalists, writers, etc. Thanks!
I love it.. the skirt goes soo well with the kimono top. I think the outfit is awesome.. not amazing but it suits her and I dunno.. I like it. But then again for some reason I liked Preity’s look (the black outfit) so maybe I’m going through a liking odd things mood.
Pic on left seems that she is lifting her skirt up to step into a pool of water!
whether I would personally wear this (or not), I am always for originality even if it borders on quirkiness.. especially in cookie cutter bollywood..
No. No. No! This is BAD. Ill-fitting blouse and worse skirt.
P&P – Why do you think this is FAB? Am I missing something (worriedly)?
LOL its obviously a DRAB
Ha! Poor thing, she looks armless in the second pic. :P
you are kidding right?? she looks like a librarian with bad taste in clothes! it might have looked good if not for her glasses and that hairstyle…
You can dress quirkly without looking like a mess, the components in their own are OK, but they do not belong together.
I am on the fence about this. I like the combination definitely…but for some reason it feels she is drowning in the clothes…I think it’s a bit ill fitting. I love her glasses! They are so cute!
Also, I LOVE her glasses -so fun and quirky
that blouse keeps you guessing doesn’t it? did she lose her arms in a tragic accident? i still think she looks fun.
Ha ha ha looks perhaps PnP were afraid Amir Khan would throw one of his rare but ‘infamous tantrums’
i love it. i don’t understand why everyone has to pass the majority’s opinion of ‘fab’. I’ve always loved her quirky style and her guts to pull it off every time and that too not worrying about anyone’s opinion. I love the kimono and the skirt. the colour is wonderful. she looks so hot.
as much as i love this lady, the loose kimono top and pencil skirt which really isn’t a pencil skirt totally looks drab for me.
love the shoes though.
Whats there to like??
This is obviously an inside joke by pnp. I get it pnp. Calling that fab is definitely funny. Ha HA
Horrendous
some people just like being fun and easy, i like the attitude and the fact that she chose to be fun and interesting, i love the skirt, its structure and who would have thought of a kimono with that, i mean does she even look like she cares if you dont like it, thanks for following the cardinal rule of style Kiran:) we can have more of you instead of those booby flashing Bebe wearers with that huge Louis Vuitton duffel:)
P.S THE SHOES COULD HAVE BEEN MORE QUIRKY I LOVE SOME OF MANGO S NEW STUDDED BEAUTIES
OMG its horrible! Both the top and the skirt…the whole look is drab! I can’t believe PnP find this fab!? WTHEYY!?
AWFUL !!! I wonder how u guys could rate ths FAB ???
Are u kidding me?
This blog is fab but we need better critics!!
when the top is loose fitting the bottom needs to be tight and vice versa!
ewwww……this is totally drab!!!!
i hate everything about the look…her hair…her outfit…just everything..!!!
