Runway To Cover...

When I saw Padma Lakshmi in this Lanvin Spring 2008 dress, I did think it was better suited for editorial purposes... Lo and behold, spotted Deepika Padukone in that very same Lanvin dress for L'Officiel cover...

Definitely, it makes for a better editorial dress over a red carpet one!

Shilpa In Verve: Decoded

Shilpa In Surily

Kareena and Katrina maybe hogging all the magazine covers, but Shilpa is also making some waves of her own. She is featured in the latest issue of Verve in all-yellow creations by Surily, Narendra Kumar Ahmed and Shantanu and Nikhil.

Isn't the Santanu and Nikhil dress just totally adorable! We have already seen a variation of the same style on Sameera and Celina.

Kareena in Hi Blitz, Decoded!

I have to say that Kareena on Vogue was more fun, because of all the yummy clothes! Not digging the HiBlitz choices at all. I can't believe she agreed to wear that ugly Moschino dress!

Katrina (Un)Covered

Seems like the only one giving Kareena a run for her money is Ms. Kaif. Katrina is featured on the Verve February issue wearing a Tarun Tahiliani outfit from his Spring 2008 collection. Don't see much photoshop on this cover happening? What say you?

Kareena In Vogue, Decoded

It was just a matter of time before Kareena was featured in Vogue and for her editorial spread, she had the choicest designers' clothing, all from their Spring Summer 08 collections..the clothes are fabulous, she fantastic, and we, just a bit envious!

Am just a bit in love with paint smeared Dolce and Gabbana. How fabulous is that?

Kareena (Un)Covered!

Is it any suprise that Kareena graced the FHM cover wearing, what else, but a Manish Malhotra dress?

Katrina In JPG...

..and the JPG would be short for Jean Paul Gaultier and not the name of an image format! ;)

Gaultier still seems mesmerized by Bollywood and Ms. Kaif. We found out that Katrina's outfit on the Vogue cover is quite old though! Spring 2007 Couture old! In fashion terms that is more than five collections ago (counting Resort, Ready To Wear and Couture)!

Vogue can't pass old material as new to us! As Amy Wino would say "No No No!"

Madhuri On Verve

What do you think of Mads on the december issue of Verve?

Here is what we think:

Payal says, "Love the outfit. Love the red lips. Something wrong with her eye make up though. Also, the body looks too big for the face. Photoshop at work, yet again?"

Priyanka says, "The red lipstick just doesn't work. Maybe its the Dita Von Teese, Scarlett Johanson, even Deepika Padukone hangover but it just doesn't work for Madhuri. Her skin is too pale and and the make-up ages her! And I agree with Payal, way too severely photoshopped! All in all, a flop cover for me!"

What do you think???




Don't miss the signature Tarun Tahiliani scalloped lace trim on Mads that we saw on the runway at the Chivas Fashion Tour.
