The Long And Short Of It

February 4th, 2013 at 11:24 am . by Priyanka

At an event held by Sotheby’s to celebrate Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla’s India Fantastique, Shweta wore an intricately embellished dress by the designer duo. Tousled hair, red lips and black pumps finished out her look.

You may recall her wearing a heavily embellished gold Abu Sandeep for her father’s birthday celebrations where she looked pretty darn good. This time around however, she wasn’t quite able to recreate the same effect. The dress just didn’t work on her. Hair and make-up only added to her woes.

With Grammys around the corner, I can’t help but think how perfect this dress would be for stage.

    oh hell, this looks like she’s wearing all the family gold at once. the only place for that dress is on the stage.

  2. Ritu says:

    Wow! Nothing is working for her. Bad, bad eye make-up, stockings that don’t match her skin tone and pumps!!! But talking of times when she looked amazing, I think Kareena’s sangeet she was wearing a beautiful saree but never did see a full length photo of that.

    DId you guys check out the masaba print dhoti (?) on parineeti in the new kurkure ad.. i wouldnt have known, if i wasnt reading your blogs!!:)

  4. fisheyes says:

    reminds me of a manish malhotra. beyonce/ nicki manaj style:)

  5. Rashmi says:

    the make up couldnt be more hideous !!

  6. tara says:

    Awful from head to toe! Bad makeup,the tights,hideous shoe choice. Wish she’d stop dressing like a ramp model- cant carry it. The dress is very ugly.

  7. SLC says:

    Yikes! This dress is made for a stage performance. Hoisery is mismatched as well. The first pic is kind of scary too…way too much make-up.

  8. Dits says:

    OMG , this looks anything but pleasing or nice in any remote way.

  9. Veena says:

    I’m pretty sure that the model on the cover of India Fantastique wore the same dress as Shweta .

  10. Paroma says:

    This is scarily over the top!

  11. Nisha B says:

    Lol What on God’s earth is she wearing..kerala bride(drowned in gold) meets warrior princess look..

  12. Lola says:

    How horrid…she looked a tad bit better at her father’s do but there is no excuse for the most recent presentation.

  13. judge says:

    the song ” walk like an egyptian” started playing in my head, when i saw the pics!!

  14. Sandhya says:

    OMG!!! She looks like a malayali bride who just turned into a warrior princess!!!

  15. kasthuri says:

    The dress and make up are only suitable for the stage. A large one at that.

  16. deep says:

    The top of the dress looks decidedly like the nettipattams (elephant caparison) seen on elephants in Kerala temples

  17. Rajvi Bhow says:

    wow! there’s so much gold. Bappi Lahiri will love this dress

  18. neo says:

    WTHHH,

    I think she was inspired by a TROY the movie, its 100% GHASTLY, isn’t it? Whats with those skin colour tights?

    I am sorry but she is very unfortunate with her sense of style

  19. neha says:

    OH dear……….what a disaster……can’t this family ditch abu sandeep already?

  20. Anon says:

    I’m sorry did you say Lady Gaga? C’z that’s who I see here….
    Hideous is an understatement.

  21. adya says:

    I suspect this is what Abu Sandeep are always aiming for-blingtastic. I actually liked Sweta for carrying her off beat looks with such elan and giving sis in law a run for her money. But this is just sad!

  22. Malaika Nair says:

    Why is this not in a “Wheyy” section?

  23. Ena says:

    Sadly, this is just every kind of wrong.

  24. bong babe says:

    this looks like something out of the amar chitra katha comics. ye olde time warriors would wear chest plates like the one of her dress. yuck.
