While Miss India Runner-up Tanvi Vyas walked for Krishna Mehta, Miss World Runner-up Parvathy walked in a heavily jeweled lehenga for Falguni and Shane Peacock.

The look seems incomplete to me for some reason and it is probably because of the bare wrists. But I won’t be surprised if the designer wanted the lehenga to shine more.

‘Monk’ star Tony Shalhoub and wife Brooke Adams went a different route while the rest of the crowd stuck to formal suits and gowns.

Tony wore a black Bandhgala jacket while his wife chose a red lehenga. The lehenga was downright dowdy but then Brooke probably doesn’t even know she can do way better!

At the New York premiere, Akshay went with a darker suit but kept it semi-casual by not wearing a tie and Deepika just sported more green and beige.

Is there a theme to this premiere tour? We’ll just have to wait and watch!

Update: The lehenga is a Shantanu-Nikhil. (Thanks ‘Pooja’.)

Year In Rewind: (Un)Covered

This was a tough pick after looking at the Vogue January 2009 issue. But, since that cover belongs to 2009, we will have to leave it out of the running.

Gosh, this was a tough pick because there were so many that left a lasting impression. Ameesha on Verve(even with that photoshopped nose!) and Lakshmi on Elle, both provided serious competition but in the end, the favorites were Sonam on Elle and Dita on L’Officiel.

Sonam in that lime green Rohit Bal was so edgy and Dita simply looked ethereal in that Suneet Verma lehenga skirt.

What were your favorites?

Hello magazine recently did a feature on Ameesha in Manish Malhotra lehengas seen at Couture Week. The black one should look quite familiar to you because we saw a variation of it on Shilpa at the Bigg Boss 2 finale.

Considering, ‘Verve’ just covered Ameesha in a bridal special, isn’t it too soon for ‘Hello’ to feature her in lehengas again!? You can check out the Verve cover here.
