For a recent appearance of hers, Raveena picked Anavila separates to wear. Big earrings, a strong red lip and pair of neutral sandals rounded out the actor’s look.
Neither the silhouette, nor the color did much for her… It just felt frumpy and hastily put together. Let’s just say, this look was bit of a miss.

We have all been there. Out of seemingly no where wedding season creeps up on us, we get blindsided, scream bloody murder, call our BFF and cry, “I have nothing to wear”!
Dust the cake crumbs off your pajamas (you know you were stress eating), and read on. We have some ideas that might be just the gentle nudge you needed.
First things first, the Mehendi.
Whether you are the bride herself, a fabulous friend or a close relative, you know you want to be both comfortable and hit the right tone. Palazzos/shararas are low maintenance and give you the all important mobility. A non-blingy sari when accessorized just right strikes that contemporary note and makes for a welcome change of pace.
Below are some suggestions inspired by celebrity sightings on these pages. Find one that sings to you and make it your own!
Let the festivities (and shopping) begin.

So, the Mehendi is done. You’ve used your entire cache of patience in letting that henna dry out, keeping it on and not stain or maim everything and everyone in sight. Yay! Also, yay you can now let your hair down and shimmy a little. Now, let’s talk clothes!
Whether it’s classic, contemporary or comfy, the trick is to pick a look that works for you and one that you can work, head-to-toe. Take some inspiration from these ladies!
You can never go wrong with a pretty lehenga, all the better for finally trying out those dance lessons you’ve been taking. A contemporary twist on a sari checks the festive box without compromising your fashionista street-cred. But for those of us who have to be dragged away from the dance floor, can anything be better than a non-fussy off-shoulder top and lehenga? No dupatta, no problem!
Now that you have your outfit covered, go on, perfect those moves!

Wearing what seemed like an Anavila sari, Shabana attended an art exhibition on Wednesday. While I love the addition of the rose in the hair, I did find it a bit overkill just because she had that interesting bib necklace on.
I did love the sari on her.
On an aside, someone tell me, how do the roses stay fresh? I tried one on and it wilted within 15 minutes! #Facepalm

As she was headed in to the airport, Karisma was photographed in an Anavila dress. Her choice of accessories included a Chanel bag and pair of Louboutin booties. She made it all work!

At the screening of Secret Superstar, Shahana was seen wearing a blue linen sari by Anavila with a salmon colored tank top. You’ll remember Aahana wearing the same checkered sari a few months ago but with a checkered blouse also by the designer.
Between the two, sure, Aahana’s drape is one we were more drawn to but didn’t mind Shahana’s casual take on the draping either.
