It seems like Ms. Pinto’s stylist took the day off. How else do you explain picking a dress that barely looked good (on her) and then pairing it with stark black pumps and finishing off with limp hair.
In contrast, Rachel herself looked so fab.

It’s the jacket on Gul and boots on Puja that earned them a good ol’ Not Quite. Ought to be mentioned though that Gul’s choice of footwear only took away more points from her look.

These lovely ladies continue to do what they do while sticking to their aesthetic. Besides, we doubt we are about to see ’em change anything up, anytime soon. Not that we really mind. And yes, hundreds of women dress like this everyday but that’s not a bad thing now, is it? We like.

Slacked off on these Wish Lists, didn’t we? So without much further delay, (drumroll please) here’s one!
Ms. Saran was an easy pick for the series. Beautiful woman, unfortunate sartorial choices. She tends to favor a certain kind of sari, a certain kind of dress… And if not stuck in that rut, the hair and make-up seem to let her down. Below is our wishful indulgence… How we’d love to see her in any/all of ’em! Some are bit of a stretch but, think twice why don’t you?!

Shriya Saran
It’d be great to see Ms. Saran pick Indian-wear that wasn’t the tried and tested, her go-to sheer and/or blingy options. Styled differently to work off the runway, each of these looks would look great on her. A soft braided updo and a statement necklace with the sari-inspired Tarun dress or the Kotwara one with the dupatta worn more casually and plaited hair would make for such a great change!

We’d love to see more pared down, minimalist tinged looks on Shriya. There is no reason to fall back on bling for every Red Carpet appearance, is there now? Look at that JJ Vallaya gown, impactful without assaulting the senses. How we’d love to see that off the runway!

It can’t always be floor-sweeping gowns, can it? These looks below are worthy of their moment and, we know with just the right hair, make-up and accessories, there’s no reason why Shriya can’t have a moment in them. That Namrata Joshipura look is practically made for Shriya. And look, it’s not tacktastic. (P.S: The Joshipura skirt could be yours!)

We know Ms. Saran loves her maxis, wish she’d try some quirky printed ones too. Like the Rimi Nayak one. You are young. And you only live once! 😉 It’d be great to see her in an easy-breezy dress like the Anita Dongre one too.

And now, this is the part where we cross our fingers!
