I knew it was the Moroccan national dress, but I had to google to figure out the name – it’s jellabiyya. I guess the problem is that she’s trying to wear it like a kurta with a churidar, whereas traditionally it’s worn without one.
But seriously, I’m always happy when a non-Indian wants to pay homage to the sari, so I say Shabbo aunty, go for the jellabiyya!
She’s got such a lovely face but I seriously feel she does not have ANY particular look that “she owns.” Ya know? She tries wearing Saris and they don’t sit well on her either (I don’t know, could be the designs). I think she should stick to Salwar Kamiz – even in her heydays, she looked lovely in them.
@ K – I think she does have a look that she “owns” because she’s usually dressed in very ethnic type outfits. She doesn’t really go for the trendy look or classic, because there’s always some type of print or something ethnically/tribally inspired, and she seems to like stuff that is different from the norm. So I think this outfit is true to her style.
Is she also carrying a pillow with that bedsheet?

Uff, Shabana and her kaftans.

Jellabiya,huh? no kidding….Are you sure she didn’t just get entangled in her living room curtain while making a quick dash for the car?
she should have worn something better to her own family member’s film premiere. these kaftan type clothes are for lounging around the house.
I want to see Shabbo in something more form-fitting. Why must she always hide herself in those ugly tent-like monstrosities?
she’s certainly got an adventurous spirit :) love that.
@ wannabe… ROFL!
jellabiya…hehehe i think Diya wore it the right way some time back right? without the salwar i mean…she looked better
The first pic is so funny.. it looks like she is howling at someone to take that orange bedsheet of her!
knock knock !! any body there in the tent??
Is that aTENT?
hahahah “tent”
she needs to stick to salwars for sure, or learn how to choose better designs in sarees. the kaftan look is just horrible on her
jellebiyas are worn by Very old fat Arab women. she is none of those…really bad outfit even she is not forgiven
OMG
I love shabana but her outfit is strange. I feel like she dressed up to go to a tribal elders meeting, but ended up at a movie premiere somehow.
