Doing ‘LBD’

Prachi Desai broke up her all black look with some color in the way of her bag while Shefali Shah decided to stick to all black… One kept it casual, the other went more formal! I do like the way they both wore their ‘lbd’s…

Prachi’s was young, casual and laid-back but she kicked it up a notch with her patent pumps; only wish she ditched the visible white straps.

I like the silhouette on Shefali, its very playful and feminine and accentuates her curves quite nicely!! And before everyone gets up in arms over Shefali’s look, let me explain why it works… The ‘A-Line’ silhouette of her dress works in drawing attention to her waist and taking the focus off of stomach and hips, while the all back color palette gives the overall look a more slimming appearance… (though this pic isn’t the most flattering, this was the only good full length I could find)

Twinkle sure wears it well doesn’t she? Always restrained and understated.

But, wasn’t she at home when Akshay was getting dressed for the same event?

She is back and has totally redeemed herself after the last faux pas! Love how refreshingly fresh she looks here…

And yes, thats a Fendi Spy that she’s sporting… The Shetty Sisters have one each, as does Shweta Salve!

Clearly, Poonam’s dress did not work. We like Mahima’s approach to doing optical prints (even though her dress was boring), she let the clutch do the talking and kept everything else simple!

We know by now that when it comes to personal style, Aarti Surendranath marches to her own tune, and keeping that in mind, this dress was no surprise! The ikat dress in itself is quite funky and we think it would have totally worked, on dare we say, someone younger??!!

Sabina of course went with yet another black outfit, but after seeing her last appearance in the color, we’d take this ‘lbd’ any day!

We’ve always appreciated Kadambari Lakhani’s penchant for not wearing the same ol’ lil’ black dress but this one somehow didn’t quite do it for us! Perhaps its that strange black detailing at the neckline thats ruining it for us…

Now tell us what you think…
