These ladies, who are making their Bollywood debut soon, were spotted sporting red dresses. While Caterina donned a red Anita Dongre Grassroots dress while taking in the designer’s show at LFW, Sarah picked a silk dupioni Gauri-Nainika number.

Whose look do you prefer? Caterina’s contrast or Sarah’s match-ey look.

P.S. Caterina makes her debut in Bhindi Bazaar Inc.

The fun thing about Fashion Week is you can really play dress-up, have fun with fashion and be as outrageous as you’d like! Though not many of you agree, Payal and I adore Sabina for doing just that and doing it with aplomb. We also of course envy her for wearing Sabyasachi straight off of the runway, perks of being the label’s Business Development Manager I suppose! 😉

Which of her different looks (all in Sabyasachi) during the recently concluded Fashion Week was your favorite?

P.S: Look inside to see how some of these looked on the runway.

In Satya Paul

Raageshwari and Sonal took in the Satya Paul show wearing designs from the label’s previous collections. Most of the times Raageshwari nails it but this time the look felt lacking. Sonal, on the other hand, looked good in her dress even though we aren’t even fans of it.

Gauri and Nainika: LFW Summer Resort 2011

In creating a world of fantasy for their finale show titled “The Fantasy Collection”, the Karan sisters seemed to have skipped on paying attention to the clothes. Lanvin-esque ruffles and Marchesa-esque folds dominated a predominantly white collection that consisted of cocktail dresses followed by gowns, marked by two very dramatic ones with voluminous skirts.

Gauri and Nainika seem to be forgetting that the same internet that allowed us to watch the show live (LFW TV woot woot!) also has opened up access for everyone else to international runways. Any fashion lover can now distinguish between original voice and a very borrowed one. Let’s just say we were very disappointed.

The show that consisted of dancers on stilts ended with the Faces of Lakme, (Amrit, Shraddha, Lisa, Vipasha, Indrani and Liza) closing out the show(see inside).

Pria Kataria Puri: LFW Summer/Resort 2011

For her last collection, jewel-print took center-stage, and this time around, Pria Kataria Puri drew inspiration from Marrakesh. Rich in kaftans of many lengths, tunics, dresses and saris, the collection wasn’t color shy. Crystals, mirror-work, embroidery and silk tassels were embellishments of choice for this collection, while fabrics like chiffons, silk, crepe and jersey were fabrics of choice. Though some of the pieces were heavily reminiscent of her last collection (see second row), some of those kaftans were beautiful.
