Sporting her signature style, a plain bordered sari (a Sabyasachi) with minimal accessories, Ms. Balan made an appearance at a recent book launch.
The lovely Ms. Balan has me flummoxed… I no longer know if I should declare this a yawnworthy same ol’, same ol’ or write it off as her signature style.

Fashion and movies have gone hand-in-hand, sometimes to have given us icons and at others, iconic moments…
I have always loved the black-white-and-grey of movies as well as the effusive Eastman color. And all that came with it. Impeccable style being one. Katherine Hepburn, Liz taylor, Dorris Day, Grace Kelly, they all had IT but that’s for a follow-up post… For now though, here are some of my favorite snapshots of Audrey Hepburn movies that her friend and designer of choice Hubert Givenchy played a leading role in.
Sabrina (a movie I love) was the movie it all began with, the association between Givenchy and Audrey Hepburn. The strapless ball-gown that Audrey wears in the movie after returning from Paris was designed by the Couturier and is one of my favorites. He later went on to design most of her costumes… A fortuitous meeting during the course of a shoot that led to a lifelong association and friendship between a soon-to-become style icon and a then young couturier!

Audrey Hepburn’s understated style and quiet sophistication/elegance remain uncontested. You haven’t forgotten the opening sequence of the movie Breakfast At Tiffany’s, have you? Givenchy and she, the dream-team!

And speaking of movies I love… Funny Face. Love it so much.
The all black look of Hepburn’s (from the movie) in cropped pants, black top and ballet flats inspired so many looks and was instantly memorable. Remember the Gap ad?
But, what I really loved were those Givenchy gowns. Swoon. The Givenchy wedding dress that she wears towards the end of the movie was just plain something else!
If you haven’t seen the movie, you must. In fact, go on and see all three (again)… so fun. I know I want to.

Having seen Haseena do the LWD really well, we are surprised to see her look so off. It almost feels like she rolled right out of bed and walked in.
Queenie surprised us with a non blingy/non-belt look in a tiered dress but of the three, our pick was Penny who fared the best with her easy summer style.

It was leopard print for both Rukhsana and Monisha, but who wore her spots better?
