On The Runway

Comment image 67


She has walked the runway in the past when endorsing brands, but today was the first time after eons that Aishwarya walked one for a designer. The lucky designer, (you guessed it), Manish Malhotra.

Here is a first look but keep coming back for more pics.

Update: As promised, here are more pics of Ash on the runway and while we love the smoky eyes on her, the white lehenga feels such a mismatch with the makeup.

  1. from what i can make out the dress harks back to the early 90s late 80s filmi wedding joras and not in a good way. Ash’s hair colour as has been the case recently proves to be her undoing.

  2. Oh boy, Ash has been rockin it out. Simply gorgeous. Like the lehenga. But it is definitely not somethingunique, pretty standard MM fare.

    • I meant corset-fitting and not corset style.

      The full pictures are gorgeous. The huge skirt looks really good on her. I wouldn’t imagine anyone wearing this in real. Hate the border (hoop skirt style) at the bottom.

      • Yea i wasn’t too happy when i saw the top alone but with the full length pics, it looks so much better. Stunning is the right word for her. 🙂

  3. makeup is too harsh
    pout aint working
    the white looks too washed out on her.
    she can’t exude the spunk that comes from the collection. Mr Malhotra should stick to the tried and tested Kareena Kapoor rather than trying to help Mrs. Bachchan get back in the game!

    • My thoughts exactly. The makeup is amateur (too much bronzer, and ‘smoky eyes’ that just remind me unpleasantly of Jenny Humphrey/Taylor Momsen), hair is bad as always and the color of the lehenga makes her look ill.

    • And the hair!! Why hasn’t the hair colour changed?? Doesn’t do anything for her..and the dress is just blah! It looks ordinary and the frill order/hoop thing just makes it worse!

  4. didn’t manish once say that he wasn’t going to use celeb show-stoppers because they took the spotlight away from the designs? =$ he was right wasn’t he?!

  5. talking not abt her beauty… that lehenga bottom looks like a rag.
    Is this the example of looking good in a potato sack? She definitely does.

  6. She has a beautiful face and that is always the case irrespective of the dress. However something is not working here and I am not able to put my finger on it.
    I dont know. Was she the show stopper? That dress is not showstopper level. White is not her colour.She always looks smashing in midnight blue or more electric colours like silver or electric blues.Even wine red.

  7. Average to below average as far as I’m concerned. Hair is a total mess and the disgusting brown color is not helping at all. I’m so thankful to the handful of actresses who’ve kept their natural looks. Thank god Sonam, Kareena and Katrina are rocking their dark hair color and not going for cheap light brown dyes.

  8. ASH Looking like the Ash we have seen her over the last decade… smashing….the outfit is nice but not showstopper style.make up is hot

  9. So THAT’S why she’s Aishwarya Rai…she looks stunning. The only woman in the universe who can look so awesome in such meh clothes and questionable makeup.

  10. Wow!! she looks absolutely amazing! Awesome :))
    She definitely has a special something about her that sets her apart from all others
    just saw robo and i thought she looked gorgeous in the movie
    she just is getting better with age

  11. Don’t care for the outfit…I will pass this outfit in a heart beat…(after all its MM we are talking abt :P) and white is surely not ash’s best color.But finally i see some fire in her eyes and i like it 🙂

  12. frankly its tiring to see her in the same big hair she had since that famous coke ad eons ago. Its boring and big and bouffant hair makes her face look bigger.

    the make up, well the eyes are awful dont go with the dress at all its halloween meets fairy princess meets ice queen (perhaps due to the expressions) for me. She looks kinda scary in the second left pic from the top.

    She is a beautiful woman, i wish she had better sense about her own style and not let a bunch of morons ruin her hair, face and the whole look. The dress is quite nice but its a whatever because of the rest of the styling.

  13. i only focused on the face till i just realized this is a fashion blog lol. the reason why i’d never present my dress with a “showstopper”

    Reply
  14. awww…..gorgeous face & make up………Lehenga reminds me of “Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam” kind of clothes…..makes her look nice but is not nice itself.

    Reply
  15. Wow! No wonder she is considered to be the most beautiful woman in the world! She looks amazing. Slightly darker hair would have been perfect but otherwise stunning and i like how the outfit is not over the top. Nice.

  16. sooo much corset boniing, but it does do here justice. I think she looks fab, and she finally looks like a model. Also want to add that I feel sometimes the make up may look abit too garish and striking on photos because of the flash :s…

    but anyways overall she looks fab 🙂

  18. Obviously it is her season , she is in wild demand this year, making her rounds & $$$$ .. I ain’t mad with her!
    But it is time she gets a “makeover” – change the exterior a little and stay with the trends …..Ash you are boring me girl!.

    Reply
  19. she is a good model & knows how to dress well.
    The lehenga looks good except for the bottom trim & back tail.
    It looks to be a wedding gown inspired lehenga.

  20. I’m not a fan of Ash at all.. but she looks gorgeousss! I actually think the makeup looks really nice on her.. And so does the colour 🙂

    Reply
  21. this makes her look good. Indian wear suits her body so much more than those gowns..which make her arms look too round.

    She is so beautiful one almost forgets the dress! nice to see her in white!
