Mira and Shahid attended Mandana and Gaurav’s sangeet party on Saturday evening with Mira wearing a yellow Rimple and Harpreet Narula anarkali and Shahid in a cream Anita Dongre kurta look.
Did you love the simplicity of their looks here? Considering the norm these days is going bling-ier and busier.

Hostess of the evening, Mira kept it easy breezy in a nude colored dress from Anita Dongre‘s latest LFW collection wearing it with tan wedges.
She looked great!

At a recent soirée in Mumbai, Pooja was photographed in Anita Dongre. Wearing her hair down, the actor finished out the look with big earrings and a cocktail ring.
The pastel color worked well with her skin tone but the look itself felt low on impact. Wish she had skipped the ring and instead added a sick of bracelets/bangles or a chunky cuff or two. That aside, she looked nice.

While many of us are still struggling with the February Already syndrome, India’s first fashion week of the year has come and gone. Held at Mumbai’s JioGarden from February 1- 5, Lakme Fashion Week Summer/Resort 2017 transported me to a mostly Mai Tai state of mind. I say mostly because sometimes I found myself in a sangeet.
Anyway, a little over a week later and here are the seven things that I still find myself thinking about…
1. You Go Gen Next!
Starring a bunch of talented designers, LFW’s Gen Next Show kickstarts each edition. Some of these debutants go on to launch super successful labels, others win coveted awards and a few manage to do both. Two labels that caught my eye this season were Soumodeep Dutta for his unmistakable Bengal school of fashion vibe and Poochki for their billowing breezy separates.

2. The Exploding Galaxy
Not the Samsung phones but just the ridiculous number of stars that descend down on one fashion week. (The ridiculous number of fashion weeks is a whole other column). Sushmita Sen, Bipasha Basu, Tabu, Diana Penty, Malaika Arora Khan, Daisy Shah, Padma Lakshmi. Sophie Choudry, Vaani Kapoor, Aditi Rao Hydari, Nimrat Kaur, Preity Zinta, Swara Bhaskar, Ayesha Takia… Showstopper. Overkill.

3. I Need Some AM.IT In My Life
Patola fused into plastic in AM.IT by Amit Aggarwal’s collection aptly titled Seamless. His pieces occupy the top 10 spots in my wishlist. Discarded saris, signature metallics and green means (and end) of fashion, this collection makes the right noises and looks equally fabulous. Now if only I can pre-order one of those dramatic pieces. And then find an OMG enough place to wear it to.

4. DeBo IS A Thing
Thanks to my blogger friends Priyanka and Payal who very helpfully coined the acronym DeBo (Desi Bohemian ICYMI), I am now convinced more than ever that DeBo is legit. Especially since nothing else seems to describe some looks from Label Ritu Kumar’s Maharaja Pop.

To promote the Tamma Tamma reboot from Badrinath K Dulhania, Alia and Varun visited the Kala Ghoda Festival on Sunday where the former was seen in an Anita Dongre creation fresh of the LFW runway.
The organza vest gave the lehenga a youthful touch and she sure looked lovely in it. The jhumkis for just the right touch.
