Of all the versions we’ve seen so far of this Monisha Jaisingh dress (see here on Priyanka and here on Malaika), this one had got to be my least favorite. And I particularly dislike those kolhapuri sandals with this dress. Ankle-ties would’ve added more interest.

I love the YSL sequin jumpsuit and I love those studded platforms. Except I don’t love them together on Avanti. For this number, would have loved to see her in the black version of the YSL sandals vs the white.

Overheard at the ‘WYR’ Screening

Sunita (whispering to her husband Ashutosh): “I really should send flowers to Priyanka for making me look good at this screening. Yes, I know this gown ain’t all that and neither is my hair or makeup, but darling, did you see her!”

Ashutosh: “Of course, honeybunch. You should thank me though. I told her to pick that outfit over a Ferretti gown that she was planning to really wear. Told her she would look like a very ‘Fashion’able ‘Chandni’ from the year ‘2050’.

On day two of LFW, Tisca Chopra was spotted attending the Nikasha show in an outfit from the designer’s A/W collection. Although I love the dupatta, am not particularly liking the pairing with the salwar/kurta. I wish Ms. Chopra had worn the vest from the runway instead of the dupatta. What say you?

Sporting The Skinny

Call me old fashioned or perhaps it has to do with watching daddy dearest for years dress up in suits for work but I love the basic tie. Years of watching Dad make perfect triangle at the neck can do that to you. In fact, now I sometimes do it for the better half, thanks to the occasional practice on Dad.

These days, the skinny tie has become quite a favorite and at the premiere of their movie, both Abhay and Harman wore skinny ties with their suits. If I really really had to pick, Abhay’s grey suit would be my pick just because he had a better suit on. Who do you prefer. Either or neither?
