LFW Winter Festive 2010: Rehane and Ravage By Raj Shroff

The dominating theme of Rehane‘s festive collection was the gold cutwork design featuring in just about all the outfits: from scarves to pant hems to sari borders. Besides that, multi patch horizontally embroidered stripes also were featured heavily in dresses, sari borders and tunics. While I loved the pieces featuring the cutwork, wasn’t a big fan of the patchwork ones. They looked messy vs aesthetic, up close.

Ravage reemerged after a long hiatus minus designer Neetu Gupta. The label, now being headed by just Raj Shroff presented a collection that touted it as being targeted towards the free spirited nature of the New Age bride. And so, there were no heavily embellished lehengas with equally heavy cholis and dupattas but more simple but heavily layered looks made striking by way of color. For the bride, who wants to do it differently, this indeed is the collection for her.

I love this shade of blue and thought it looked great on Nayantara.

By keeping the accessories minimal and the make-up dialed down, the sari with it’s restrained embellishment worked. She looked rather lovely. We like.

Keeping It Simple

We’ve seen this pink ombre sari on Sridevi before (with different jewellery) and she still looks oh-so-beautiful. But, the main reason we posted this again was so that you can come back to this post and compare how sometimes keeping it simple goes a much longer way than overworking one! And, of course, to cleanse your eyes after you see the other ‘Sri’ at the same do. 😉

While Rani ditched her jumpsuits opting for a black dress (thank heavens!), Priyanka went the same ole’ LD route (lil dress). Both outfits, if you ask us, were just so meh and we really didn’t care for either, do you?

Wish Rani had added some color to her ensemble and Priyanka paired the dress with some other footwear. The booties were just too quirky to be worn with this dress. Wait, make that any dress!

Not Quite

While Ameesha paired her Nalandda Bhandari top with a pair of shorts and accessorized with Gucci heels and a Chanel bag, Sameera went with a white corset that she paired with pants, a Jimmy Choo clutch and some peep-toes.

The top wasn’t the most flattering on Ameesha and we’ve certainly seen Sameera look better… It’s going to be a ‘Not Quite‘ for both these ladies.
