In Anand Kabra
Wearing an Anand Kabra dress, Vidya was photographed on the sets of a television show where she was promoting her upcoming movie. Gold-tone accessories from Viange and grey pumps finished out her look.
Love the rich bordeaux color of the dress on her but really, really dislike the sister-wife hair. On paper, the dress should’ve worked on Vidya but the look somehow fails to come together just right. Let’s just chalk this one out to a Not Quite.

This is def WTHeyyy in my opinion. Atrocious dress, absolutely does nothing for Vidya! I almost wish she would go back to wearing her Sabyasachi saris. Complete fail on the stylist’s part.
This dress makes her look so big…argh and that hair… who is her stylist?
Now all for a moment close your eyes and imagine her in a sheath dress this color with just studs, sexy huh I hope she realizes that !
I know!!! That would have been so much better!
Whoever is her stylist needs to be fired.
Why can’t Vidya wear a well-fitted long gown and keep it clean and simple? She doesn’t need to add more girth and weight with all these crazy designs and excess fabric in weird prints.
Agree IF she has a stylist then she has to be fired. But has she ? doesn’t looks like.
Yes, she has one. :/ She needs a gwell established one asap.
Ok while I sort of agree about the dress part of it is the lack of comfort and confidence. Regardless of body size or the dress itself confidence really adds a lot to any look. She isn’t very comfortable in it and it’s apparent. Look at the garbage worn in the many of the posts and yet the confidence of the wearer takes it up a notch.
Oh Vidya! sigh.
This is pre-Sabya Vidya. Amen.
Precisely. This is what she was and always will look without a sabya. Disaster!
“This is what she was and always will look without a sabya. Disaster !”
Beg to disagree. Sateen fabric is the problem & the pin-up hair just didn’t work out well. She will find her foot with the help of a real stylist, not a wannabe.
No need for her to hide behind the tent-like saris & anarkalis that Sabya always gives her.
Her curves will work really well in western gear too, with proper styling.
Can we stop with the bodyshaming, please.
*beg to differ. damn typos :/
I think Vidya has had a fallout with Sabya as we haven’t seen her wear Sabya at all ever since Cannes. And though repetitive atleast it was aesthetic and worked for her body type. This is plain ridiculous. Her stylist needs to be fired pronto for doing this to her. Vidya has accepted many times that she doesn’t have a sense for fashion. I can’t believe her stylist can’t see how big this is making her look.
Yes, Sabya was WRONG for putting her in the dowdiest outfits he could find, & that @
Cannes! Smh
He has so many lovely modern looks, they would have worked for her. This shows the difference between a designer & a (good) stylist. She needs someone good & well- versed in Bollywood & current fashion trends, who KNOWS what proportions are. Pernia Q would be perfect for this role. Or Ami Patel.
Vidya seriously needs to reach out to Kate Winslet’s and Nigella Lawson’s stylists, to learn how to dress for a curvaceous body shape and look awesome.
Or just get Huma’s stylist stat.
Her stylist really is out to get her. Who is the stylist? Needs to be fired ASAP.
OMG!! She looks like a stuffed pudding!! Why would she do this to herself!
I have been following your site regularly and have shuddered at some of the clothes worn by Bollywood stars but never commented on them. But looking at Vidhya this time I just had to since the visual shock was too much to bear. Is Vidya intentionally trying to prove that she does not care about how she looks or is this accidental? Forget having a stylist or not, does she have a mirror in the house? Why is she insisting on making herself look like a “joker” instead of the lovely woman she is? We all love her natural attitude but that does not mean she can make embarrassing appearances so that her fans cringe when they see her. Wear any designer you like Vidya, but please choose them as sensibly as you select your roles. Also please learn to stand properly if you want to wear dresses. The simple basis of dress sense is to hide your flaws and highlight your plus points. You are the role model we adore and want to follow.
She has a stylist n her name is Jayati Bose. .. She seems like a half hearted stylist
Yes, a wannabe. She needs to borrow Sonam’s team asap. They will update her & make it work.
Attack of the aunty clown. And P&P, you have a gripe only with the hair? Like REALLY? Ha! This is a Wt*beep*!
No stylists, no mirrors, no BFF to tell her the truth and absolutely no common sense. Inexplicable…
ha ha ha.
Absolutely. NO common sense. I mean even if stylists makes you wear such clothes, what does the mirror say. lol. It’s 2015 , no change, still the same still fugly clothes -looks.
oh no! just no no no!
there has to some sort of conspiracy going on against this extremely attractive and intelligent woman. why are they doing this to her???
This is the worst I’ve ever seen Vidya look, and that includes her Mirinda orange shiny AJSK anarkali. This is just hideously unflattering. Vidya isn’t a space alien, why do her stylists dress her as if she is a. 80 years old and b. incomprehensibly shaped? If you can only dress Sonam Kapoor or DP who are a gazillion feet tall and athletic, then there’s no logic in calling yourself a stylist.
She looks like she has wrapped a satin sheet around her and added a belt. it is a WTHEYYYY for sure. super ugly design.
Full marks for trying.
THIS. Thank you.
I’m intrigued…what’s sister-wife hair?
I couldnt get past her hair! Anyone get a wolverine feel??
Vidya Balan is a hot woman!! She has a sexy voluptuous body. She should do a lil bit of skin show of her cleavage and all. She can easily beat Kardashian sisters with her curves!! Come on Vids!! I wish I had a body *curves* like you.. Sigh!
Loved your comment.Also Vidya and Divya are spelt with same letters..: )
she should try sabyasachi again….
What is a sister wife? sounds like a punjabi gaali :-). i’m missing seeing vidya in her rich traditional saris. i’d love to see her in a black sari with a gold border. she won’t look like a fashionista but at least she’ll look allright.
Ugh why??? She is such a beautiful woman with a strong personality. Her clothes should do her justice. The shoes are passable, but for the rest…I have no words.
Aghhh, super super bad….eeks
I dislike the hair but less than the “sister-wife” comment you guys made. It feels like you’re trying your level best to sound snappy but just end up coming across as condescending and a tad pretentious. Just for the record, there is absolutely nothing wrong with being or looking like you’re a wife or sister.
“Sister-Wife” is a reference to an American TV show called Sister Wives which is about a Mormon man with 4 wives. Hence, they are all “sister-wives”. It has nothing to do with being a sister or a wife. Quite a few people on here seem to be wondering what the heck the comment means.
k. Thanks for letting me know. I don’t watch TV, so had no clue.
I was wondering what that meant too….
Don’t bash P&P, that’s absolutely accurate and funny. And just google a term if it seems puzzling or out of context, before busting your britches 🙂
I know she doesn’t get fashion…No one is asking her to be Sonam Kapoor…But if she reads this, she should try blazers over trousers/skirts..I think that will make her look very chic and classy and play around with some colors and pearls.
The hair remind me of Elaine Benes from Seinfeld, actually the whole look does!
I agree that she does not look good but calling someone an aunty clown is just plain vicious! P&P, I hope you will moderate such comments in the future! @ Adaraa, if you do not have good things to say about one’s clothes, so be it; please refrain from commenting about the person!
+1, that particular comment is really nasty. It’s a public platform and we must voice our opinions in a manner suitable to public discussion. She is no aunty and she is no clown. She is a super talented actress and a powerhouse performer. She isn’t in the industry to appease us with her dressing sense. She is there to act well and she does it marvelously.
Err. The last i checked this page was still a fashion blog not who does good acting blog. So she acts well and so does so many people who are never even featured on this page. I comment based on the look here and if you aren’t aware, yes, everyone has their damn right to comment within the “rules” of HHC. I never understood the need to get up the panties in bunches for the first sight of aunty. Jeez. Take a break peeps!
I agree. That was a really mean and vicious comment. Very nasty.
agree with NG , gayatri and rs. that aunty clown comment is distasteful. the fact that PnP have kept it says a lot.
