Who: Deepika PadukoneWhere: Day 2, Cannes 2010
Deepika completely rocks the sari here!! She got her makeup right (thank god!!) and the sari hugs her figure, reveals her best assests. And she is showing way more skin than her pre Cannes appearance:-)
You know who disappoints me - Rohit Bal. Yes, the color combination is great, the blouse style is sexy but the embroidery and flower motif design is so tacky..where is our famous craftmanship?..sigh, look at the details - it looks El Cheapo!!
Kudos to Deepika for making it work...

nice...i like the color of her saree!!
ReplyDeleteYes!!! Finally!!!!! A sari at a non-Indian red carpet!! I am so thriled by this and how beautiful she looks that I'm willing to forgive the lack of artistry on the sari!
ReplyDelete...I even like the 'chunkiness' of her watch even though a thin dress watch would have been nice, I like that hard edge.
Dammit. No. You know what?... this top with a sheer black sari embellished with gold filigree and diamantes...
@Dusk: She looks awesome - there is no denying that but this not our best..If you look at what was shown at Lakme Fashion week and Wills Lifestyle fashion week, you will be blown away by Indian craftsmanship..This is not even Rohit Bal's best stuff:-(
ReplyDeleteI can't shake this thought that creative Indians have this inferiority complex that forces them to kowtow to western ideas even if the Indian way is genius.
ReplyDeleteThis sari is playing it safe. It's being worn with the thought of western judgement not worn as an Indian expression, if you know what I mean??
That's it. I'm bringing all my saris out.
I agree with both you ladies! ... That's it I am bringing all my Sarees out too ... Only I have no where to wear them too ;) Haha
ReplyDeletethe close up is great...she looks beautiful!
ReplyDeletesomehow sari needs a little more meat on the bones...she looks so painfully thin.
i find Deepika on the red carpet hot too.....she was wearing ethnic Indian saari and looking very sexy and elegant
