In Sabyasachi
Aishwarya gave us our second Sabyasachi Resort 2015 look on Monday in an all-black look at the Femina Women Awards. Although on the runway, the gold-embellished tunic was presented as a dress, she wore hers with black churidaars and a matching dupatta making the look a more desi one. Maithili Kabre earrings, a matching Sabyasachi clutch and Fendi sandals finished out her look.
We all know Aishwarya favors black a lot and for good reason, the color does have a slimming effect and we’ve also seen her do the bold lip and winged eye-liner before. What really made this look impactful was the sleek hairdo. One finally felt like she went the whole nine-yards and the effort was well-worth it. She looked good!

GORGEOUS!! She’s changed her hair AND shoe game! This is a rare event and I’m savouring every moment of it! The sleek dupatta is also a refreshing change ’cause I’m so tired of seeing her in heavy duty ones that weigh the look down.
not liking the churidaar …think flared pants would have looked better.
Wearing black for good reason? And what would that be? Why can’t a look be critiqued objectively without sneaking in catty remarks? Aishwarya looks beyond stunning here, irrespective of the color of the dress!
She wears a lot of black, which is a fact, and everyone knows that black is slimming. No cattiness meant here. Just facts being stated.
She always wears black even when she was slim, much before she got married and became a mother, go through her appearances in cannes and other red carpet events over the years. There are so many other celebrity (Jenifer Aniston comes to mind) who wears only black – almost. Never ever I have seen anyone suggesting that she dose it for the slimming effect. You didn’t suggest that slimming effect while commenting on Huma – she is also wearing black! But I guess black has a slimming effect only on Ash – according to you. You guys do not like Ash, and you made that very obvious. So stop trying to cover that up. And please post.
I have to agree: the whole post smacks of grudging condescension. “Favors black and with good reason”, “one finally felt she went the whole nine yards”….all this and the final verdict is a lukewarm “she Looks good”?? I can see the comments were this the much loved on this site Sophie or sonam be a while lot more gushing. Nothing wrong with that, everyone is entitled to judgment and bias I guess, but it is a little difficult to stomach when we think for some reason you guys are above that π
+1
Yea seriously, even I felt that the remark was incredibly snide and just plain rude. She does not need slimming colors and she has happily flaunted her post pregnancy body in colors like real and gold.
i seriously got offended by your comment “wearing black to get slimming effect”! if thats the case she could have worn black in Cannes film festivals! i don’t think she cares about all these stuffs! She is a superstar!!
what if she wears black because she likes it? or aren’t people allowed to like anything anymore without being body-shamed first?
and how would you happen to know that she likes black because of its slimming effect? being a little presumptuous and judge-y, aren’t we?
So do you also wear a lot of black P&P for the same good reason. π
Sigh, even Black can’t do much for me at this point. π
Wasn’t necessary to comment about the ‘slimming effect’. Never saw you say that about Lisa Haydon wearing black
single strap sandals would have worked better. Also that namesake dupatta not adding anything to the look.
Exactly..She should have given the dupatta a miss!
Love everything about this look! The shoes esp.
And thats why she gets the big bucks. She is gorgeous.
She’s beautiful!!!
Wow…2 back to back fab appearances. Love.
Aishwarya would be gorgeous even if she was 300 pounds.
But fat shaming while attempting a back handed compliment? Well done.
*Slow clap*
She looks lovely. Yay for the new hair style. I like her shoes but the don’t go with this outfit. P&P your remarks for Ash wearing black are not catty at all. A fact is a fact. Only after her weight gain has she worn more black than before.
Wish she had skipped the dupatta but otherwise like her in this look…especially the hair and the shoes.
I think she is slim, she doesn’t need to wear black for the “slimming effect”. She probably wears it because she likes the color π Anyways,she looks gorgeous as usual !
yay for ditching the fugly anarkalis!!!
Love everything about this except the dupatta. There was no need to desify this look.
regardless SLAY ASH SLAYYYYYYYY
Good??? She looks freaking amazing, come on!!
Aishwarya looks BEAUTIFUL!!!! Not a great fan of the dress but its a welcome change from those heavy gowns π Loving it!
PS: She has ‘slimmed’ down and I don’t think she needs black to look slim π She wears black coz she loves it!
Wow! Sabyasachi and Aishwarya- Definitely the deadliest combo! Always look forward to her appearances on HHC-page!
She looks great. I am so glad she did something with her hair – it instantly elevates the look. Not the best shoes for this look, but I can’t deny that she looks gorgeous.
Wow P&P. I condemn that comment of yours. Very poor in taste. Why so anti-Aishwarya? Please stop featuring her if you cannot be objective about her appearances. Same goes for the extra fawning over Sonam’s mediocre appearances. KThxBye
+1 I hate to jump on the ‘you’re biased’ bandwagon but they usually go crazy over the smallest issues with lining and stuff and say its too distracting. But if Sonam has the same issues they hardly mention it. Even if they do its always “not that big of a deal”. Even if its super obvious.
Love this appearance of hers. She looks fabulous. Hair and makeup is just perfect. While I don’t think you guys HATE Ash, but I definitely don’t agree with the black-slimming comment of yours. She is one actor who never went into hiding and stood proud at Cannes with all the post-baby weight. Not in a good taste.
I completely agree. She was one woman who was not ashamed of her post natal weight in spite of all the non- stop slamming by anyone and everyone so you comment is not just unnecessary but also comes across as very judgmental and in poor taste (though that may not be your intention).
Also a bit more objectivity in general would make it more interesting and fun for us readers to be here.
Like the hairdo which goes very well with dress.she looks fantabulous.minor gripe is with the sandals.
Why is anyone surprised about the catty comment (slimming effect) from this site? Sonam can wear the most fugly outfit and they will find something nice to say about it. But for everyone else especially Aishwarya there is nitpicking.
Aishwarya proudly appeared when she had not lost the baby weight. She has always favored black outfits. So I doubt looking slimmer is why she is wearing black here.
The scarf (dupatta?) could have been shorter as to not hang past the tunic else she looks great.
I doubt PnP meant this comment personally. They just meant to say that the reason why people in general (and in this case, Ms Rai Bachhan) pick black is because of the slimming effect. I did not read their post as body shaming. If at all, the entire site comes across as contrary to that phenomenon.
As for ARB, I am a fan, and I even liked the Manish Arora suit, so what do I know! π
Itβs unapologetic empowerment, the garment..!!! Just beautifully put together, she could black out the rest of the lot seriously..!! SbyS you rock
Has she learnt nothing from her recent vogue shoot!
Tips on hair?
Outfits that are normal.
Is there some rule she has to wear only indian in India.
P&P you have removed my comment on Lara’s comment which was live till last night. Any special reason for this favor to Lara or is that one of you with a fake name?!
You comment slipped through. Since it didn’t meet our Comment Policy (we don’t allow comments attacking other commenters), it was moderated. Thanks!
