In Babita Malkani


At the press meet of her Tamil movie Sakalakala Vallavan, Trisha was seen wearing a Babita Malkani design with silver jewellery by Suhani Pittie. Can’t say I was a fan of the separates so must ask the obvious. You like?

Of Separates


Lakshmi opted for separates at the TV9 Awards wearing a Koëcsh cape with a Shantanu & Nikhil bodysuit and high-waisted pants by 431-88. This look would’ve worked better if she’d gone for a black bodysuit and let the fringe cape be the highlight. Between the cape and the paisley pattern of the bodysuit, the top half felt much too busy.

We had two sightings of Ms. Manchu recently in looks as different as night and day.

For a press meet, she paired her Chirag Nainani tunic with black leggings. Aside from silver bangles, white accessories that included a brooch, bow belt and sandals finished out her look. And at a more recent event, Lakshmi was spotted wearing denims and a white top. Gold-tone loafers, bangle and a pink turban finished out her look.

Now on to the nitty and the gritty. While the tunic-and-leggings look could’ve used tweaking (we weren’t big on the manner in which it was styled), between the two it was hands-down the better appearance. With the latter, don’t even know where to begin! Those denims just need to go away! Between those denims, the gold loafers and the turban, there was just way too much going on. And none of it came together well. The turban especially didn’t belong.

We love a good turban moment but, this just wasn’t it. Perhaps next time Ms. Manchu can seek inspiration from either Kalki or Jacqueline? Here’s hoping the lovely Ms. Machu pulls out the stops with her next appearance.

Two recent press meets had Lakshmi give us two relatively different looks. For one, it was a floral Tilla jumpsuit and for another, she picked a Natasha J suit. Both times she finished out her look with a pair of earrings, soft make-up and flats.

Of her two appearances, do like her more in the jumpsuit; she looked nice! (The ballet flats though just didn’t work with it and wish she had picked a different pair of shoes.)

Two recent appearances of Lakshmi saw her in two avatars, first in a floral Priyanka Pratik Jain lehenga and a few days later in an Archana Rao Label (formerly known as Frou Frou) dress.

Of the two looks, it was easy to pick the lehenga look as the better one. The cape dress was neither flattering and pairing it with the animal print pumps here didn’t quite help elevate the look much.
