Going Traditional
Before you go WTHeyyy on Jacqueline’s choice of outfit, keep in mind that she is wearing a traditional Kandyan Sri Lankan sari. (Pardon me, if I got it wrong.)
I may not be a fan of the bust but I applaud her for taking the risk on the red carpet.

Omg I really like it! I wouldn’t wear it, but girl she’s working that outfit!
I wouldn’t wear it meaning I couldn’t pull off a look like that!
Agreed. It’s very hard to pull off but she looks greAt. Wish the blouse fitted a little better.
I didn’t see that you are replying to yourself, so my first thought on reading your comment was ‘why the hell is Arti being so nasty to somebody?!’ 😀
Totally +1
agreed!
i love this girl, another fashionista in the making.
oh my god, i can’t believe she wore a kandyan sari in india. thank you jacqueline, we love you!!!!
the most interesting outfit of the night for me. huge girl crush
It’s an Osari, which is the actual name for a Kandyan sari in Sri Lanka, but close enough though! I think she actually wear it well!
I think of this as a great look; she looks wonderful.
thanks pnp for appreciating ppl that take risks like sonam and now even jacqui, spoken like true fashionistas! I’ve always felt you guys are fair!
Without offending anyone, I feel she looks like an air-hostess.
I wish she’d worn her hair differently, chosen a diff color – sonething
i can look at this girls face all day. sigh…
Hey common…its not WTHeyy at all! She looks very graceful!
she looks stunning! always a refresher to see someone experiment well with their wardrobes and not go for the same ‘ol looks.. love
That’s a modern take on the Sri Lankan sari. According to my Sri Lankan friend, a traditional Kandyan would have less tummy showing and a bigger frill on the stomach.The Batik is appropriate.
this isn’t the original Sri Lankan sari. its a moderized version of it. she should have worn the real one. that’s much elegant
nice kandiyan sari looks gd on her…
Yes you got it right. Its the Kandyan saree but worn a little bit urm, different. (Like how Amisha Patel gets the Pallu wrong 😛 )
But still Kudos to Jaqueline for pulling it off on a red carpet!!!! She sure does look lovely!
Except in a traditional Kandyan saree that sash across the front would be wider (just like in a regular saree) and end in a regular saree pallu. I’d say this is a modern take on the traditional Kandyan.
its still WTHeyyyyy
i agree, leave these kinda risks for halloween. im sure there probably was a better way of wearing this sri lankan sari
blouse stitch is bad… n it would hv been better if it was hidden
bt yea her confidence n smile hlps
Nah not for me,honestly people wear tacky sarees all the time and we tear them to pieces,i find this tacky and hav seen better versions before(jus didnt know it was the sri lankan sari)
Kudos to her for going the Sri lankan route and i do think she looks fab. That aside, i do not think this is the real traditional form of the saree. It is definitely stiched and not draped. It looks like it has gone through Tarun Tahiliani before it came to Jacq.
Its not actually the Kandyan saree (the traditional sri lankan saree)… but more like a modern take on it.
Love the outfit! It may be a modern take on the Sri Lankan variety but girlfriend is working it!
I quite like her whole look…
I love her look! She looks cute!
