Going Ethnic

While Raveena kept it really simple by going monochromatic, Prachi went with a more patterned one.

Prachi’s kameez was such a disconnected mish-mash of patterns, I totally hated it but loved Raveena’s suit. I just wish her dupatta was of a better material and had an orange border for a better contrast.

Whose ethnic avatar are you more digging?

We’ve seen this Archana Kochar design in its salwar-kameez and choli form on Amrita Rao and now Raima Sen was seen wearing a strapless dress avatar. Like this version?

More Or Less?

As a salwar kameez, this design was as dowdy as it could get. As for the magazine cover, the blouse version wasn’t so bad but the denim shorts didn’t work either. We’d have loved to see some gold sequin shorts instead to tie in the traditonal vs western vibe that the cover seemed to aim at.

Like either? The ‘More’ version or the ‘Less’?

In Manish Malhotra

A more recognizable Kareena made an appearance for a ‘Main Aurr Mrs Khanna’ event in a maroon Manish Malhotra outfit. There are so many things I didn’t like about this outfit but my top two reasons are the uneven kameez and the choice of footwear. The bronze sandals against the gold strips of the churidaar almost made it look like she was wearing ankle-high sandals, even though she wasn’t.

Long, loose and flowy. What’s not to love about these outfits on these two Mothers-to-be. We love em both in it. You?
