Lakshmi On Elle: (Un)Covered
The November issue of Elle has a very sultry Lakshmi Menon (Yep! It is a model! Finally!) wearing a Gaurav Gupta jacket.
Love the dark mood of this cover. A lot.
Lakshmi Menon On Elle India November
Guarav Gupta, Fall 2008
Wowie! What a change! Love this model and her look here in the cover. And for some reason i’m intrigued by the contrast between her urbane look and an absolutely traditional name.. like Padma Lakshmi..
FABulous! what a great cover…love her look
and such a strong,captivating face
Lakshmi looks gorgeous! The male model looks like he’s grown bat wings though….
I have no words except….WOW!..Im speechless..its so unique I love it<3
The model has a very pained expression and the outfit can at best be called a a 90s style ruffled sleeve shirt that got confused and ended up as a dress!
Can’t for the life of me understand what’s so great in this.
beautiful? r u serious.. just because she is skinny and tall does not mean she is pretty.. some with same face but less than average height would have not have been considered pretty in this modern society… i hate the double standards
Lakshmi is GORGEOUS. =)
Love it, very minimalistic (only hightened by the menswear) and expressive
isnt she looking a lil masculine? while she really isnt.. she has a fab body type
completely agree with P
hehehe…
Lakshmi Menon is completely the most gorgeous model in India. Beautiful bones, super attitude… with photographer Prabuddha Das Gupta she’s magic. I’m yet to see a bad pic of her…
yeh…agree with Surbhi.
i’m not much impressed with the cover. well like it’s nice, but her face just doesnt do it for me.
I love her, its a very dark brooding cover and she fits it beautifully. Nice for them to put a model and not an actress or starlet on the cover…
she looks so stunning!
@deewani: i think you need to google lakshmi menon to see how stunning she is! maybe this picture is not working for you. this lady is a ‘real model’! and i love how she didnt jump into the film industry wagon like the rest of the world!
i loved lakshmi in the magazine ads she did for anmol jewellers but i think she looks a bit severe here. she’s also been featured in hermes ads.
Her slight masculine look in this works for the dark cover. It’s all perfect and it’s so refreshing to see a model on the cover!
The cover is refreshing and stylish
love the cover. love the grey.
her versatility is intriguing!
only she can carry off this ‘dark’ edition! i cant think of anyone else who could!
She certainly has an interesting face. Not the cookie-cutter bollywood looks and thats what makes this cover edgy and interesting. Her face looks angular and almost masculine, which works extremely well with the mood of the cover. I certainly dont want to see a cherubic/angelic face with pink lipstick and doe-eyes on a cover like this…
I think she rocks this cover!!
Loveee itt!! Laxmi looks stunning..
WOW i love it
I like Lakshmi Menon and I like her styling here.. but there is a (probably intentional) manly look to her on this cover..
