In Manish Malhotra
Natasha partook in Dussehra celebrations on Tuesday wearing a bandhani sari featuring a floral woven border by Manish Malhotra. Now, I would’ve preferred a simple blouse minus the striped sequins and the pallu to have been worn a wee shorter such that it wasn’t dragging on the floor, but other than she looked lovely.

What’s MM about this apart from the blouse which doesn’t match anyway !
Hard to believe that Manish Malhotra had a hand in designing something that actually looks pretty and not filmy chamak challo like chamkeeli and blingy.
I actually love that blouse with the saree. And her choker too. I don’t think I’ve ever liked anything Natasha wore, but this is quite tastefully done.
And if I’m not mistaken, that’s a Kashmiri woven border. That’s Rajasthani Bandhni and Kashmiri elements in one saree- how did MM pull this off!
Completely agree with you…that the saree, blouse, choker and styling is tastefully done. Just the draping was off
Maybe I’m in the minority but I don’t like this look at all. The blouse is atrocious (classic MM), and the choker is too thick, she actually looks trapped. Her smile makes it work though.
She looks really good.. also just wowed she wore a saree like one. Made much of a traditional difference.
She looks like a combination of Mahima Chaudhary and Illeana D’Cruz. A beautiful one at that! (The 2 women anyway have been my favs). I love the look apart from the drape.. the pleats are leaning too much on the right (her left) and blouse neckline sits quite low. For some reason, despite the flaws, she looks great! The colour is doing its job.
In love with that choker! Chokers deserve a bun or hair tied in some way or the other- I cringe everytime someone sports a choker with open hair…she’s done it right for a change!
I’m not a MM fan, but this is a pretty saree and Natasha looks lovely.
I just love the print on the saree
Although saree is lovely (which is rare to see in MM collection) the deep neck blouse ruined the entire look. Just not appropriate for festival. Probably draping it more tastefully could make this look more elegant.
Wait so:
MM making classy Saree
Natasha looking elegant
Choker done right by Page 3
Ravan of tasteless styling just got burnt
that was really funny 🙂 good job @ that..
She does manage to make MM look sophisticated which is no small feat! Love the choker! Not too sweet on the blouse but the overall effect is not ruined by it. She looks great
Curve-ball from Natasha!Quite a good look this.Can i over-reach and hope for a better drape??
First time ever liking her. How pretty she looks when she smiles n doesn’t restrain herself. Also, she is giving a glimpse of Neeta Ambani here.
The overall look works. Agree on teh extra long pallu, so unnecessary. But pray tell me, how is this designer? These are classic weaves from centuries ago… what and how has MM modified it to call it his own? The simple gold edging, the tacky blouse?? what makes this a designer look when you start with a heritage weave as this banarasi is.
Can anyone identify the designer of her ring?
She isnt even wearing a ring
hahahahaha!
