Aishwarya and Abhishek at IIFA Awards 2009
Like Sonam, Aishwarya also seemed to be saving the best for last because this Abu Jani-Sandeep Khosla sari was a sight for sore eyes after the Nachiket Barve frock that we saw on her on day one. As for Abhishek, his suit was great but the gelled spiky hair was a put-off, for me atleast.
Check out new pictures from the IIFA 2009 Fashion Extravaganza at The Gallery.

Elegant and classy. That’s Aishwarya in a sari.
Lovely! :D :D
love it! ash looks great!
Totally loving that saree, but ghastly makeup again. :(
WHAT A LOVELY SAREE! <3
Ash sort of has the perfect figure for sarees, she never looks bad in one. I love the color.
She needs a new makeup artist :/ whoever does her at Cannes, she should hire them for EVERYTHING!
FINALLY!! Someone who knows how to drape a saree right. Priyanka and Lara could learn a thing or two about draping from her.
I really like the color on her, even if I do wish it was a bit darker. I love how she didn’t add unnecessary jewelry to the outfit. It’s almost enough to make me forget the disasterous frock. The make up looks wierd in the last picture, not so much in the ones before it. Wonder what’s with that.
To be honest, there’s nothing ‘special’ about Ash’s sari. She’s worn and looked better. This sari is basically the same ‘chikaan’ embroidered stuff that’s been seen on Ash time and again in her salwar kamiz suits. Also, the obvious weight gain (esp on face) and that hairstyle doesn’t help either.
I don’t like. :(
Gorgeous, amazing sari! Wow, this is beautiful – i’m wondering if it’s one of the saris that Abu-sandeep created for ash’s wedding collection.. i remember reading that they made several for her but that she went with neeta lulla in the end… Anyway – she looks fantastic and abhishek looks good too – i would not have chosen that tie but blah!
I don’t think the saree is that great. It looks very ordinary. I do like the fact that she wore a saree though.
Ash has finally nailed it. The saree is very simple, but she looks so elegant. I think this is the first time she is wearing a saree on a red carpet abroad (except for the Devdas premiere at Cannes years ago!)
Aishwarya looks simple, classy and elegant in a sea of overdone outfits. This is how you stand out not by trying too hard.
Abhishek looks good too.
Ash looks great. Everyone should learn how to wear a saree from Aishwarya…the woman may not have a great sense of style but when it comes to saree she rocks.
@EM–I have to agree about the saree draping part. She does it right..
The saree’s great and Aishwarya wears it well. The jewellery’s great too. The only part I don’t like is the way it bunches up because its stiff at her left side.
Don’t like Aish personally but love the saree and the way she wore it. I have to give 100 thums up to women in Bollywood who dare to cover their blouses with the pallu. I just can never like the new fashion of putting your pallu in the middle of you boobies…….sorry, I think that is trash fashion and should be abolished soon!
Iam totally in love with Ash’s saree…sooo beautiful! I want it lol. Her whole look is great…bangles and everything….she’s so classy and elegant. Ash needs to teach other actreeses how to wear saree the right way
to be honest this is yawn worthy.. i still think her best this year sari was the sabya at filmfare.. and dress wise was the blue cavalli? at cannes
I love it! Aish looks great as usual. Abhishek’s been looking a lot better lately!
i’m in love with the sari
and she wears it so so well
she really did bring her A game to the show
lovely – classic saree drape is the best
the makeup and hairstyle ruins it!
its just a typical ash,,she looks lovely in indian clothes… but i dont find anythi wow abt this saree, i totally agree with emem, the sabya at filmfare is her best look…i love love the bagles she’s wearing
and is it only me who doesnt like her makeup..i mean i find smthin unsual abt her face.i hv noticed it iin all the iifa events.
The top two pics the sari looks whatever but in the middle two it looks veryyy nice! I like it I think it looks good on her but I don’t think I would ever wear it.
this is something jaya bachan must wear.i kind of feel that this saree will suit older women better than ash
I wish Aishwarya were more confident and self-assured enough to be proud of herself and then it would show in her ensembles…here she looks great,she chose what she likes but when she trys to be one of the crowd;the frock!!She kills it…in a bad way
hmm
*tries
nice sari but reminds me of the kurta she wore @ Screening of “Guru” at UCLA in Oct 07
Agree with @emem. Is she sporting 5 carat rocks on her ears??
Abhishek – awesomely awesome! aish – lovely saree but ghastly makeup..she needs to go easy on it
The sari is typical abu sandeep work.Making ash look gorgeous is nothing great, she looks good in everything.But actual test of a designer is to make a person with jaya’s body structure look good,in which abu sandeep fail everytime
wow! love the saree…..its a simple chikan saree and might be bleh for many, but i love it. the color is great. a better makeup would have really added more to this look.
I agree with ‘K’ . there’s nothing special about ash’s sari .
The Sari is so elegant yet so simple..
And I think every women in India would have such sari my mome used to have couple of similar saris in light colors..
But Ash has got the perfect body to carry the sari.. she can make any sari look beautiful…
And I love the way she draped it covering her assets perfectly… other bolly ladies… feel free to take this tip from Ash…
*”my mom used to have ..”
Awww, such a cutie couple<3
I just ADORE this saree! So pretty, Aish looks cute but I really wanted her to change her hair and makeup, still she looks gawjusssssss
I agree about Abhi, I just hate when guys over groom themselves as in gelled hair et al. The suit is fab:)
Cute couple
agree with “K”, looks just like her chikan suit, nothing special about the saree…and with “Sarah”, saree draped the classic way is really the best, not putting it in between,…
as for Abhishek’s hair, I liked it, spikes looks hot … on any guy… its the only way guys should be allowed to do their hair, in my opinion anyway…and I’ve used like intentionally cz I like thefactthat he did spikes, but since guys have the potential to look absolutely droolworthy with spikes, it wasnt wow..nothing I love..
love the saree but don’t care too much about the blouse
I dont know… the saree is just ok for me… may be its the amount of work on it.
And what makes it all bad for me is the blouse and her makeup. Why, why, why, why that blouse!
And for all those who call is simple – please define simple… how does this saree, of all the sarees we have seen qualify as simple?
not simple in term of cost i am sure, not simple in terms of work… simple because its light coloured??
Simple because of the look it gives. Who says you have to wear cheap to look simple? :)
Like her saree, but that blouse is a complete no no with chikkan work sarees
she has put on lot of weight she is looking older than abhishek that charm of hers is no more
shutup you hater!!!
she has put on lot of weight she is looking older than abhishek that charm of hers is no more,nothing great about her saree is as usual chikkan work sarees
@ AJA !
She is 35 + !!
And if i can look 10% of what shes looking at her age..after working her ass for 12 years !
SHE LOOKS STUNNING.. !
bad makeup, nice saree but paired with the wrong blouse and ghastly makeup. The only thing i wish is the saree were in a different color, this one makes her look broader and huger in some way and its a saree for older women methinks.
i also wish changes that hairstyle, its so old and boring, been seeing it on her since the past 10 years i feel.
hey ash looks realy lovely in dat sari
I like Ash 4 her extreme beauty.But i dont like the fact that Abhishek is younger than her…..
Ashwarya looked stunning as usual and Abhishek looked handsome as usual. Rab ne banadi hit jodi.
Aishwarya has a great sense of style according to me.. no wonder she is so popular abroad as well..
