In Georges Hobeika

Comment image 21


Mallika attended the amfAR gala wearing a lavender colored Georges Hobeika gown. A Hobeika the gown may have been, but between that sheer neckline and the embroidery, the gown itself looked rather tacktastic. Not helping was that poofy ponytail do that did not do Ms. Sherawat any favors either.

Oh Ms. Sherawat, just when you were having a good run, why did you have to go mess it up.

  1. I think she looks pretty darn fantastic! minimalistic makeup – check, minimalistic jewelry – check, endearing posture and smile – check.
    The sheer panel could have been a tad darker to match her skin tone, however

  2. This gown reminded of Ash’s lavender Elie Saab gown from Cannes last year because of its colour. I think Mallika looks very pretty here. Love the gown on her. If anything, I feel her hair colour is too jarring. Because her hair are too black, they are clashing with the soft feminine colour of the gown. It would make a world of difference to her overall appearance only if she chooses a more natural looking hair colour. And kudos to her! That cleavage doesn’t look even remotely vulgar.

  3. I like it too… She looks great. Given that you thought Kajal’s gold colored monstrosity was good, perhaps it’s your run as fashion critics that needs to be examined.

  4. The gown is quite elegant and tasteful. I doubt that on anyone else you would have called it tacky tacky. The hair, though, breaks the look.

  5. Wish she had stuck to the original runway version of this gown. It looked so classy on the model. The sheer inlay and her hair ruins an exquisite gown 🙁

  6. going by the illusion panel, this gown is obviously meant for a white woman — the sense of not-being-there would’ve definitely been heightened. on someone with Mallika’s skintone, it just looks like a lighter coloured panel — which is just odd.

  7. P&P can’t help feeling this post is mean spirited .on any one else doubt you would have used the word tacktastic- you reserve it for a select few?

  8. Lighter hair and darker sheer panel would have been perfect as pointed by quite a few peeps here. However, even as is, this look is faaaaaar from being tactastic. This color looks great on her complexion. Give the lady a much deserved break. I agree that fashion critique is subjective but this is unnecessarily dismissive!
