Of Dhoti Pants and Strapless Tops
June 23rd, 2009 at 1:38 pm . by PayalBoth, Shweta and Narayani ended up wearing dhoti pants and strapless tops to delItalia’s first anniversary brunch event. I still haven’t warmed up to dhoti/harem pants (and by that I mean wearing them myself), but having said that, I do like Shweta’s printed top and white dhoti way more than the bright combo worn by Narayani. Just wished Shweta had given the metallic BV hobo a miss.
What about you? Who do you like better?
Thanks ‘Ryna’ for event tip-off.

I LOVE harem/dhoti pants…the funkier the better, for me. And I think both Shweta and Narayani wear it much, much better than most other people I’ve seen sporting them.
Narayani wins it for me, becoz harem pants can’t be white – that’s too cheesy for me, like someone wearing a patiala with a short top. If you’re doing funky, do it boldly!
i like shwetas combo though the hobo doesnt go with her look at all, love her top!
narayanis hair is all over the place. such a mess
shweta’s reminds me of those gujarati male folk dancers, where they go around in circles
Nah !
I wore them in late 80s , still hate those pictures !
BTW : Please don’t try to guess my age, I am still 16 !
I hate dhoti pants. For me dhoti look belongs to WTHeyy section.
agree with chevalier. white harem pants don’t do it for me.
however, my issue with narayani’s look is the length of the pants.
Eww on both counts for me
shweta’s look is reminding me of what men wear at garba…the traditional gujrati mens wear
nEither of them win this round for me, NArayani’s hair is out of control and I dont like the cut of swetha’s top. Pairing a loose top like that with already baggy harem pants just doesnt work. Also I think the whole tank w/harem pants combo is best left to tall slender women because it makes you look dumpy otherwise
Oh?! I really really like Shweta’s whole outfit! top to bottom i think it’s such a cool look.. am really surprised.
does that supposed to look appealing to the eyes?
thought you did not approve of see-through shirts — as far as i can tell Shweta’s top is see through…
I dont like the trend either but if I had to choose I’d go for Shveta over Narayani coz the long ones look slightly better. Narayani needs some frizz control products and a hair tie
I like Naryani’s top perhaps.. but certainly don’t like the pants. Not sure about Shweta’s outfit..don’t like the see thru bits in the top and don’t like the way I can see the waist of her pants right through it. Like her jewllery though. I thought the bag sought of maked her look as if she was on the run and the look didn’t suit much considering it sounded like a formal event. However.. i am looking at the gu behind her in sweatpants and I don’t really care much now..
i love shweta’s top. like the dhoti pants on her better than narayani’s due to the length. its kitschy n fun!!!
I have always liked Shweta’s style, she’s lovely. As for harem pants, would never wear one myself although Shweta looks better cos her top is pretty and Narayani’s just looks like lounge wear
love the white pants!
P&P – can u tell me where i can get myself a pair of these?
I actually love both the looks. I am a little partial to Shweta’s outfit as well, but I wouldn’t mind wearing what Narayani is as well.
think they both look good!
blue and yellow – two contrast colours plus an avant garde pant styling. I think Narayani looks like she tried too hard. Shweta, on the other hand looks comfortable, has picked a block colour for her pants. I think she fares better. Perhaps the hobo bag is to complement the ‘jhalla’ look. Either way, I wouldn’t wear dhoti’s to a brunch. I mean it’s a dhoti after all…enough said.
i would have liked
-shweta’s pants with a tank minus hobo
-shweta’s top with jeans
-naranai’s pants if longer and with her hair under sontrol
ooooh… shweta looks cool… I liked her top to bottom.
Loved the top. and the color… n kinda started loving white dhoti pants now..
wud luv to have one my self…
m I loved the way she looks indian-rural style chic.. I so love this style… funky n bold….
