What’s In A Name?

Who knows what the good folks at Diane von Furstenberg meant when they named a dress ‘Basmati Dress in Sari‘ but they sure had some smiling. :)
Oh, and am totally loving the dresses in the Indian Temple Dip Dye.

these fail to impress me. I think free people has better India-feel dresses & they fall under my budget too. i love their bollywood princess (really!) dress.
I tried but failed to get the reference of the Basmati dress…do enlighten me if someone knows.. :)
that temple dress is to die for.. had been eyeing it on the website.. beyond my budget though!!!!!
ah …love the collection..
Aaaah! I love DvF loving! :D
No seriously, I was just lusting after these stunning pieces on Matches today, and seeing them here again makes me want to hug them till I die from asphyxiation.
Basmati dress! Thats too funny. Half these names are so pretentious. Bangalore shoulder bag and Patna clutch, ring a bell??
This is a very mediocre collection, the prints and the silhouttes are both completely ordinary.
If you are going to pay designer prices for this kind of clothing you have to be a fashion victim (in my opinion). Nothing more to it that the DvF brand image.
Basmati rice in a sari?! Seriously? What is with these names? How gimmicky and senseless.
Imagine how stupid an Indian designer would look if she named a sari macaroons in a gown, just because it was made of french chiffon.
agree
had these been done by a indian designer there would be so many negative comments.
Agreed, I wouldn’t pay for any of these, mostly because I am broke and having to shell out even a meagre one thousand rupees is physical pain. But even so, I love DvF for being non-formulaic. The older DvF anyway!
