Update: Turns out Freida was wearing a gown version of the Resort 2010 Louis Vuitton dress and not quite Marc Jacobs. Even though Marc Jacobs is the creative director of Vuitton, his line is different from LV.

After the Vuitton disaster, Ms. Pinto toned it down and stuck to black at the Middle East International Film Festival in Marc Jacobs Louis Vuitton. My first reaction at seeing the pics was “Is that her hair tied into the halter”? Except, it isn’t (she had a high pony tail). 😛

It’s not a look we love (only cuz she has looked far better), but hey, it was definitely an upgrade from the blue outfit.

Update: Twinkle is wearing a Spring 2009 Notte By Marchesa dress. Thanks ‘crab’ and ‘pie’!

This look of Ms. Khanna’s evokes a classic ‘on the fence’ reaction from us. While the dress itself was so ladylike with strong feminine undertones, the clutch was just way too OTT for it. Clearly she was going for something ‘different’ but it was hard to take it all in. Love the dress on her… the clutch is a bit much for us… yes, for all the kitsch worshipping we do, this one didn’t quite work. Maybe on someone else?

What on earth was Soha thinking when she chose this outfit? What? The only thing timeless about this outfit was the Chanel Timeless clutch, the rest of it seemed caught up in a bad time warp.

While Sophie went for a strapless gown by Manav Gangwani, Malaika (Zayed’s wife) sported a short dress. I thought Sophie looked divine in her gown. Loved the chiffon knot detail and the subtle sparkles on her gown. Quite an upgrade from the tacky MM sari that we saw on her yesterday. Malaika, on the other hand, had a bad dress to begin with. The dress itself had too much going on with the diamond pattern, sequins and fringe and all of it was made worse by limp hair and less than impressive sandals.

Spotted Ms. Patel in a strapless ruched Dolce and Gabbana dress… Am not a fan of the dress only because am not too fond of ruching, however… you like?

P.S: Below are two versions of the dress.
