Vision In White?
For a daytime event, Ms. Chopra did one thing right by choosing to wear white. Unfortunately, everything else went wrong for her. Between the tacky sari (or whatever you want to call it) and the belly button piercing, we couldn’t decide what was worse! This outfit actually makes us like Ms. Saran’s South Filmfare Awards outfit now.
It doesn’t end there though. The make-up that looked bearable indoors looked really ghastly in the sunlight and if all the above wasn’t bad enough, choosing to wear a really hideous pair of sunglasses really killed it for us.
What’s your verdict?

You know what, if she wore that as a simple sari, she would have looked lovely, the hair actually looks decent here and the earings work well with the outfit. Unfortunatley, the sari is horrendous.. How can she do this to herself? The shades look minging too.
holy mother… that’s down right tacky!! it’s way too much skin show, the saree is slutty the belly button is gross. i love priyanka chopra but dear god she needs help!!
if that outfit can make priyanka who is SO skinny seem like she has a tummy.. wow i feel for all of us lol
I am with you on every single word
totally agreed. is it just me or has she really started showing more skin after dostana?
lol. This is the worse I can remember from any actress. Face it. She’s not a beautiful woman but she can look lovely with the right make up and look.
It’s just not happening here.
i made a mistake of checking HHC just before im off to sleep. gonna have serious nightmares now
she looks like a dancer in a seedy old bar! the amount of skin show for an international film festival is absoultely horrendous. Im gasping with disbelief that such a seaoned actress could wear something so so tacky, tacky, TACKY!
why the desperate need to show so much skin, and her diamond belly buttin piercing. and the only time her hair looked nice, she goes ahead and dresses like this
PnP, maybe you could twitter her please?
yuck yuck yuck!!!yuckity-yuck.
i really cant believ piggy chops would dress like this
if had not known her, i would have though she is an actress from some B grade flick!
theres a fine print on her white saree and it reads “trashy”
Yes trashy but with an expensive label( with PC’s aesthetic it seems the more expensive the classier) and pretense and insecurity masked with a severe self-belief of intellect and confidence.
please please PLEASE
to all bolly celebs :
STOP DISRESPECTING THE SAREE
PLEASE
i agree with you!!! the sair is such an elegant piece of clothing but some of these bollywood stars just don’t seem to drape it properly or most importantly wear a proper,decent blouse with it!!!! arghhhh
ditto.
She’s got the looks … she’s got the figure … but why oh why does she dress up like a hoochie mama
Oh my what happened to her? Head to toe awful
i agree with u.
I don’t understand why these actresses have to go with a bare-all approach and ruin the elegance of the sari. This is one case where less is not more!! She looks absolutely hideous! The hair, clothes, accessories, NOTHING works!!
AGREED.and she has been doing this so much lately? Check out her latest sari posts, HORRIBLE and too much skin
Seriously WTHeyyyy!!! What is that outfit even called?! It’s weird and tacky!!!!
Once What’s Your Raashee? releases and Priyanka is done promoting, she needs to go into hibernation.. There she needs to think hard about fashion and styling.
This should be WTHEYYYYYYYY! She looks downright hideous. That helmet hair, thats tacky circus saree……OMG….where do I begin!!! Horrible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
trashy,cheap just as bad as mallika whats with the pierceing and is this rag suppose to be a saree? her skin is horrible infact too uch skin show from this young woman …not like she has the best body or something special she needs to learn that sometimes covering up is the best
whats up with PC these days? ugh.. shes jus been a mess! in need of a new stylist maybe? :S
I don’t know.. why it made me think of Mallika Sherawat.. I like her better now.
Me too. First thing that came to mind was something between Mallika and Rakhi Sawant. Who would’ve guessed Priyanka could dress so very horridly that I would associate her with the image either of these gals holds.
She looks trashy and I am actually embarrassed for her because nothing works. She doesn’t even have the figure to hold a sari anymore-curves of some form are essential to make a sari work but then again it’s not like she is really wearing a sari here. I’m beyond annoyed at all of these celebs that have completely trashed the most beautiful form of Indian clothing there is.
ditto
man, this has tacky wannabe startlet written all over it!! don’t know why indian actresses feel the need to wear either matronly all covered up clothes or really tacky revealing clothes to show their each and every attribute of their anatomy (i.e. tits- check, ass- check, washboard abs- check)…baaaadly done at every level!!
Why lordy??? She could’ve worn one of Manish’s sarees atleast!
Is it me or does she look like she copying Lara Dutta style at the Aircel Event??
This is not a good look… needs to cover up now too much of skin showing
When I said she should stick to Indian clothes…I sure as hell didn’t mean this. Congratulations, Priyanka for making even the sari look slutty. She’s starting to get on my nerves with her fashion sense…it’s like she insists upon herself with what she chooses to wear. The sunglasses, the belly button ring, the bra she is wearing for a blouse…ugh! Tacky.
My thoughts in your mind.. I agree. It’s irritating and transparent. And naive on her part.
“Fresh of the boat” is what occurs straight away with me. I can’t wipe away my memory of the crass and loud and tacky works she’s done the major part of her career thus far and the reason is it’s occurred the core of a person can never change no matter how much of the green grass they see on the other side, no matter how many Dostana’s and Fashion’s and Nokia ads and WYR’s happen this part of her personality is clearly innate.
You either have it or you don’t. You gain something with experience,but ‘it’ you only find within.
Whoa!! My thoughts exactly!!
I didn’t even feel like commenting on this post .. that’s how irritated I am with PC and her fashion sense !!
I mean, what exactly is this??
Slutty, skanky, tacky aside,, its embarrasing to say the least ..
I can imagine Rakhi Sawant or even Mallika Sherawat in that outfit, but PC .. never(even with her likeness to display her body all the time!!!)
Just how could she agree to get into that????
yucky!
The dress just looks very cheap and slutty.
Looks like something that a street performer in rural area would wear, just because of less resources.
This is a disgrace to the sari or whatever it was intended to be!..Wonder why these actresses dress ‘normal’ in India…but try to pull something off like this when abroad… She did the same with sari during the IIFA too!
LMAO – what can you say about this look? Everything is wrong – tacky outfit, bad makeup, helmet hair. sleazy naval ring and unflattering sunglasses.
She desperately needs a new stylist.
I’m not surprised at this point. I’m only disappointed as this girl has the potential, that few have to be somewhat genuine in an industry bursting with narcissistic pseudo-intelligent girls who live in bubbles and giggle and flirt like crazy (Sonam kapoor ahem ahem)…
Her columns really reflected it and I took to her quite a bit. It also comes across in some of her interviews, where the interviewer is smart and he/she asks questions which require honest and insightful answers. To put it honestly, the interviews in which she wants to impress the interviewer i.e: the ‘beautiful people’ interview recently. Her screen presence and potential really hit me in some scenes of ‘Dostana’ and allot of ‘Fashion’, some ads especially the ‘Nokia’ one.
Although I guess does get caught up in the glitz and the glamour, if the press calls you smart, you are smart, if they call you a fashionista, you are one and if with a few mediocre films they say ‘great actress’ your fantastic. Please guys get a reality check, come out of your bubbles and go and see the outside world, and see for yourself how small you feel.
This is where my fondness of guys like Imran Khan and Ranbir Kapoor comes in, they have potential, they apply it. There in touch with the world, and they’ve seen it.
How does this have anything to do with it?
It has EVERYTHING to do with it.
Not one of my finest comments, it has allot of mistakes. I was getting impatient, there was some issue with comments section and I lost the point by the time it loaded again.
I SO AGREEEE WITH U!!! ITS LIKE YOU SAID EVERY SINGLE THING I WAS THINKING!!! YES AND SONAM SHOULD PLS STOP GIGGLING
oh please, sonam is smart: when you grow up indifferent countries, people have the tendency to giggle a lot. it’s called nervousness. i grew up in five different countries, i have a funny accent wherever i go, and especially when i’m in india, i start giggling like crazy. hindustan can be an intimidating place.
how many in actresses bollywood can intelligently talk about brecht AND put together a decent outfit? very few andHHC proves this one.
so quit bagging sonam!
One disappointment after another…everything is wrong with this look! The saddest thing is that when I looked at this picture, I thought of Malika Sherwat…which cannot be a good things, especially on the red carpet! The picture where she has the glasses on makes me laugh so much…
oh my goodness. what is wrong with her?!
*one does
Eww so tacky!
Oh my gosh…i was there n she looked so glamorous!!! n she didn’t look so bad..I loved that she wore a saree but just wish the blouse wasn’t sleevesless…anyways still love her!!
Thank you!
I was there and she looked gorgeous. These comments are making me laugh… people..really…. get a life.
I hate how every indian person LOVES to criticize people from their own background. Be it Aish’s makeup at Cannes or Priyanka’s dress at TIFF. They made it to an International Red Carpet event!
She looked gorgeous. The hair was AMAZING and she pulled off that scandalous blouse + sari with style.
I loved her in the movie. PRIYANKA <3
Im sorry that you feel that making to an “International Red Carpet Event” is all there is to it!
But for us, dressing appropriately ESPECIALLY when traditional indian wear is worn, is far more important than just making it to a red carpet.
Clearly, the above pictures, Priyanka looks TACKY and TRASHY, I ACTUALLY CRINGED (normally Im quite resistent when it comes to fashion) when i saw these pictures.
Im even more suprrised you would expect us to dole out compliments when she dressed like THAT!!!
ewwww to PRIYANKA *gag*
I feel like crying :((..she is pretty she is intelligent she is successful! WHY then she does this to herself, again and again and again!!!
omg why would someone disrecpect a sari this way?!! this is just downright tacky and so sooo slutty!! and that scary makeup lol….seriosuly what the hell is wrong with her?!
Now THIS, my friends, is trying to hard!!!
This is really atrocious. I am shocked anyone would let her leave the house like that. It’s just all kinds of ugly. It’s supposed to be sexy, I’m sure, but she just looks like a tacky B grade actress. The type that tries way too hard to impress.
O dearie me. Really not one to boost the national profile is it?
Oh em gee someone please twitter her!! She never pays attention when I tweet her but maybe she’ll listen to you PnP … Lord have mercy on these b-town actors!!
looks like there is a Satyam Shivam Sundaram competition going on in Bollywood, at first Katrina Kaif was looking to be the winner. But Priyanka is at the no. one spot now and beats her by a mile. Way to go PC. If not for the competition, i would have scolded you for that awful makeup and that hideous piece of crap you are wearing, which i would even hate to call a saree.
and that belly button dahling, is a one up on Zeenat Aman, Zeen’s look is outdated after all.
on closer inspection looks likes you are wearing a dress, an apsara style dress.
The designer should be flogged even if you are winning the competition, sorry.
haha 😀
i am a big priyanka fan but this time i agree, she looks horrible!
Dear Priyanka,
before you leave North America and head off towards Asia, if you could please make some time, I would like to show you how to wear a Saree… for your height and personality, you have the potential to look elegant in a Saree… but the look here, sigh….
guys, i went to this event, and saw her in real life…i even got some really good pics (p.s. she grabbed my hand)! but i have to say she looked amazing in real life…these pictures make her the outfit look a lot worse than it did in real life…i personally would never wear an outfit like this, but she was owning the look from head to toe…lots of confidence and ease in the way she acted, adding to the grace of the entire look!
agreed!! she looked really gracefull in real life…n when she was walking around in it didn’t look slutty at all…
oh and the outfit was cream colour, not white!!! and she has her leiber clutch with her!!! amazing clutch!!!!
its a lehenga…not a sari….she could’ve given the bellybutton ring a miss…but her hair, make-up and accessories are fine…if only it was draped a little bit more over her stomach and bust area…I mean kareena in that green manish sari earlier, had one boob popping out, and it wasn’t that big a deal….at least nothing vulgar is showing…and which part of her tummy is showing flab????!!!…if she doesn’t even have that much, she would really have no curves…
She doesn’t have any curves. At least I don’t see them. When Kat or Lara wear a sari they have curves. Priyanka had them sometime in her life but no longer.
Dear God!! How can these people be so blind!! What is wrong with this woman. She has got to be one of the worst dressed women on this planet, and to top it off, it makes me cringe when i see pictures of her like this on the res carpet where she appears to be very proud of the way she looks!! What an embarrassment for India! It just makes my toes curl!
ACK such a pretty face but EW EW EW belly jelwery D: TACKY
she reminds of the “aajkal tere mere” song sequences…only that this one looks too CHEAP to bear with 🙂
hahahaha 😀
no way is she anywhere close to what Mumtaz looked..lol
The Fashion Police MUST arrest the DRESS DESIGNER as well as Priyanka for chosing such a GHASTLY HIDEOUS ensemble head to toe for such an event. It’s a pity that she did not do justice to her own miss world crown as well as her bollywood status. tch tch….what a disaster!!!!!!
I am in shock. I’m in shock because this is Priyanka Chopra and I thought…silly me.. that she would have some class and some self respect.
Honestly… I didn’t want to bring Aishwarya into this but I have a lot of expectations when it comes to Aishwarya and especially when she attends or first started attending western events because I was like: “ok out of all actresses Ash is the one that could make it big in Hollywood”..and to me at the time that was really important because I wanted everyone else in the world to say that she was as beautiful as I thought she was.. so when she showed up sometimes looking not up to what I thought she could look like (Neeta Lulla horrid outfits) I was disappointed.
I have to say though, Aishwarya has NEVER made me feel the way I do now when I look at Priyanka’s outfit. I might think Ash may look boring sometimes or not as trendy as she could be but at least I’ve never felt embarrassed to be Indian and to love Bollywood movies when she steps out into the media’s spotlight and THAT is what Priyanka has made me feel… embarrassed to say “yea that’s Priyanka Chopra she’s one of our top actresses in Bollywood movies and I love Bollywood movies”.
If she was fit.. it might, MIGHT have been…somewhat, minorly passable but.. I mean look at her stomach! I’m not talking about weight here, because clearly she is skinny but I am talking about muscles.. she has no definition in her abdominals right now and so she shouldn’t be flaunting them. Basically, if she had the abs of a Pussycat doll, then dressing like them (because that’s pretty much how they think a sari should be tied) would be minorly acceptable but even then it would be embarrassing because who wants to win Miss World, be considered a top actress and be compared to a Pussycat doll? Or Mallika Sherawat?
It’s funny because I saw a girl dressed in a tiny tube top glitter bandeau (from American Apparel) as a sari blouse once with a regular black sari tied around herself at a university formal and I thought that was unbelievably horrible and not classy looking..and now here is Priyanka looking worse than that girl because at least the other girl didn’t have her entire stomach showing! Her shades look ridiculous with what she’s wearing.. she might as well have worn sneakers with the sari and gone for a little stroll.
Spot on..
So true. I thought she would learn after IIFA, looks like she is taking the desi girl title too seriously. C’mon there is a huge gap between reality and a Bollywood movie, one does not come out to events dressed up in a Kajrare or a Dhak Dhak or a desi girl outfit. Too much Bollywood, she needs some reality check.
I hate it more coz I like the girl and always thought she was an intelligent person and would know better, it was very embarrasing to see someone like her do that to herself! She is almost ready to give ‘Pammy baby’ a run for her money.
But why do they even dress tackily in films? It so far from reality and films should be realistic. Did u see katrina dancing with her belly and clegave out in New York. Thats how films should be like. Like New York. Film that are close to reality and not stupidness and item dances as they are no where near what reality is. Also Priyanka ur gorgeous but please dont wear a sari like that its digusting
OMG, WTF is she wearing??
she looks like a belly dancer! whyy would she wear this to an intl festival? this is so embarrassing! she looks so cheap. like i always said, she doesn’t deserve to be a star! i refuse to call her an ‘indian’ female actor! she looks like she belongs to playboy! she was probably trying to compete with Mallika Sherawat at the ‘Inglorious Basterds’ Premiere in LA!
ok this is one of the most ridiculous outfits i have seen on this blog. I think she outdid Malaika’s ugly black cut out dress. Cuz malaika knew she was being outrageous. I think PC seriously thinks she was doing something good here. and it completely failed. nothing about this is acceptable.
seriously… she’s been losing it in the fashion department and now her class is out the window.
can you tell i’m disgusted?? LOL
dear me.. doesnt she look like a gaon ki gori gone weird..
ahem, esp with the sunglasses, it looks like she is being “farward”.. egads PC.. dump ur stylist like NOW.. and dont choose.. get Freida Pintos stylist.. or even Sonams will do for u
Awful…what was she thinking??….her appearances during the promo of wyr have all been tacky-grotesque clothes,bad hairdos,very wannabe n very ‘trying too hard’….i think it is the ‘harman effect’…lol
that made me laugh and nod a little! haha
It feels like Priyanka has deliberately chosen this outfit to prove a point. And that is – I have a rocking figure and I can even wear anything.
But it doesnt work here as the outfit has ‘item number’ written all over it. She would look great if this were a music video shooting and she is playing an apsara or a princess. But wearing it at a formal event and Toronto Film Festival no less is downright tacky.
she should have worn a simple saree..even if it was the same design and colour scheme..that would have looked elegant..the make up makes her look really bad up close
do B.wood actresses nazar utarofy like this once in a while? hehehe
hw did she manage to step out of the dressing room
and y din any 1 scream at her to change the dress???????
whats your rashee?.. n whos this ” trashee ” ???? 😀
lol cute PJ 😉
PC killed herself on this one! She represented Bollywood actress’ so disgraceful. Terrible choice of saree for day event is she trying to compete with Mallika Sherawat. She has on too much make up like a pile of glob, plus that awful belly button is so tacky…hair style & haircut pathetic! If she was trying to out do other actress’ she only made it worst for herelf.
Oh why did she have to do this in Toronto?! Honestly, Toronto has enough problems without having an eyesore like this added.
What was she THINKING stepping out looking like that?? This is worse than Malika Sherawat’s cut-out dress from LA (at least I think it was LA). That had shock value, and it was what it was: a very revealing and sexy frock. This on the other hand is wrong on so many levels. It’s practically grotesque to take a sari and turn it into this slutty, blingy, hideous thing. And the belly-button jewellery!!! Ewww!!!!! What is that??
The bad hair (I mean helmet hair? Really?) and makeup just compound the problem. I hate when people with all of these resources available to them step out looking like this. There is just no excuse.
The hair! The hair! ICK.
What she’s wearing is having an identity crisis… It’s a sari trying to be a dress…
This could have easily been a funky, east meets west ensemble but sadly it went down the drain..
I can think of at least 10 different ways his could have been improved but sigh..
omg!!!its “ashleel” for me.
ok i jk…..bt seriously thats too much skin …..
n hairstyle makes her luk like a boy….. idk….bt i feel so
I was there at TIFF yesterday.
She looked alright, but a bit too revealing, (note it was like 10 degrees outside)
She could have taken off the sunglasses in the beginning, and she should have taken more pics wit her fans. Rani Mukherji absoloutley rocked TIFF. She appreciated her fans and took the initiative to sign a lot of autographs. I’m pretty sure Priyanka Chopra didn’t sign more than 10 autographs. Rani walked all the way from the begnning to the end and greeted fans in every section. Priyanka did a horrible job at TIFF, she skipped so many people. It was very disappointing because fans were waiting for more than 3 hours in the cold and Priyanka was only there for 3 minutes (half the time posing for the media pictures) All i can say is, she let the fans down….
thats a Manish Malhotra BTY…n she looked really glamorous in it
I really like her hair! Why don’t people like her hair??!! I actually like what she is wearing…except…the draping and where the skirt is sitting and that belly button. If she draped it right, and pulled up her skirt an inch, took off the belly button…this could have been an interesting indo fusion wear.
Oh God, I thought noone could top her IIFA act. Just when I was getting over it, she comes up with this. And the belly button!
What is wrong wtih PC, seriously why does she have to idolise Pussy Cat dolls, I thought she had better taste than that!
She needs to change her stylist pronto! First, the excessive use of mini skirts at almost all promotional activities and now this. With the rate she is going … God knows what we have to witness next.
Love the girl but absolutely hate what she has been wearing lately.
I meant the belly button ring!
That’s disgusting. She looks horrible in that thing. Way to destroy a SARI.
Her makeup reminds me of her in AITRAAZ. and that makeup was horrible for words
holy moly! i can’t believe what my eyes are seeing. i thought PC was really intelligent and sophisticated…for her to have picked that outfit! what in the world was she thinking..how could you step out in something like that and not know that u look like a fool.
One of my most fav Priyanka Chopra looks is her in that sexy white sari in the song hey na hey na from Bluffmaster. She looked absolutely gorgeous. Wish she had picked something like that 🙁
i think you mean say na say na from bluffmaster
the funny thing is why do u even have a poll fr this?????
I agree with most of the comments. That navel button is so cheap. And why would you do that to a saree! Why? Please leave the saree alone (or learn a thing or two about it from Ms Rai).
BAd
super ugly!
she totally disappointed us all this time..:(
OMG it reminds me of those 80’s jitendra’s movie with jaya prada… lol 😛
tofa tofa tofa tofa….. laya laya laya laya..
I love what you said, so true!
OMG .. ROFL with that one!!!
Now that’s the tune that’s gonna be in my head all through the day!!!
haha looking at this i dont blame you 🙂
I am glad that Ash is the only one who represents us on a global level. I totally understand the importance of Ash now…
So true!
agreed!!!!If Ash had to wear the sari–it would looks classy and elegant not fobish and tacky and hoochie..
ugghhh
I completely agree…These new girls should learn the art of draping the sari from Mrs. Bachchan!!
Ash does us so much proud overseas!! We love her for that!
selena..absolutely…way to kill a sari..
monstrous.
WAKE UP SID’S sequel…
WAKE UP PC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
fashion is about experimenting. photographs taken in sunlight can be a let down if not done properly. So her pic with the makeup looking not ok could also be due to bad photography. She is a pretty lady and is quite photogenic. The outfit with a proper blouse would have looked much better. The lehenga is worn with some exposure of the navel. Up to the individual’s choice. For promoting films, which is business, the film star has to at times wear things which are not so commonly worn.
I usually am a fan of sexier Saris, but this is not sexy at all. I think Bikini, Backless, Strapless cholis would look better if the pallu is draped over your stomach. She could take some tips from another Miss World (Ash) on how to wear a Sari.
It seems she makes it a point to show her skin at every event. A lot at that and totally unnecessary. She makes the sarees look almost vulgar everytime.
Its damn easy to think negative about ayboy for that matter and let your fingers dance on keyboard but difficult to reaach ehere PC is today… She is the best India has today…
Stop hating. You’re just jealous cause she has the body to show off her stomach. He looks so hot.
Hey She is so pretty and has the best body so everyone is envy of her. She has the best body,acting skills and a perfect dressing sense with which she casn beat even aishwarya or angelina jolie so guys just chill out and enjoy don’t be envy
