Wearing a NorBlack NorWhite dress over her denims, Sonam arrived back in Mumbai on Monday. Love the dress and I don’t mind dress over jeans, but this pairing here didn’t work.

  1. One of those lovely shapeless frocks my mom used to buy for me back in the early ’80s. Always a few sizes larger so I would “grow” into them and it’d be more paisa vasool over time. I honestly loved them. Glad all things old are coming back in style!

  2. She could have 100% salvaged this mess by cinching the waist in with a tan belt, getting rid of the jeans and shoes and wearing it like a dress with some tan loafers/sandals. Bonus points for adding green stone or silver earrings.

      • I actually agree with you. No offence intended at all to M but I started reading that and checked out pretty quickly because the idea is to basically look like everyone else and be in line with society’s current acceptable ‘nicely dressed’ looks. Funny thing is that those looks also get criticism for being generic, if they are noticed at all.

        • “Better aesthetic”. So that’s Sonam. They pick what to wear for a sighting off a rack. She is not sitting in her bathrobe hyperventilating cause she doesn’t have ‘anything to wear’ or ‘hasn’t shaved’ so can’t wear a dress problems. Every sighting has a thought process and a look and a styling they commit to. Her recent looks are mostly Indian brands and she is easing into street these days if you haven’t noticed.

          In short, read about street.

          • What an absolute revelation! This should be required reading for everyone on here. Pretty sure poor HHC readers had no idea about the “thought process.”

            Btw, display name checks out.

        • there could be a mid way by not overdoing it like she does and not being completely safe.. atleast by making it fit well or accessorizing it could be salvaged. i mean what with a overly oversized frock on kind-of-baggy jeans.. worn over sneakers! get atlaest 1 thing right if not all.

    • No you can’t wear a tan belt becuase of the slightly low convex seam, it would look odd, and also because of the high low hem, there’s no go from saving this hot mess with those sneakers and sunglasses.

      People say she gets lot of hate and girls are jealous of her, I think the anger is due to the fact that she appropriated the term fashion icon for herself as she entered the spotlight. This was a girl who liked dressing up and beautiful clothes but took herself too seriously and criticised all her peers in the industry for having no fashion sense, the hate in part is directed at her haughtiness, arrogance and actually making poor style choices. Then her PR puts news that her fasion is always on point, all this ridiculousness gives rise to more resentment. They also said that she and husband are the only Indians who got invited to Giorgio Armani’s show. Not true, in the distant past one Indian women from India not only went to his show but also spoke to Mr. Armani in his native Italian. How much fake news can we have?

      • Don’t care for her presence in international brand parades, but yeah she’s a damn beautiful girl but choices of clothing r absurd, not able to understand most of it so far! She could really make stuff look fab.
        Also opinions aren’t hate.
        N nope she’s no style icon yet, she has no personal style.. only blind following of brands.

  3. Imagine if some normal ordinary folks walked around in this clown outfit. I doubt anyone besides fashion icon Sonam will dear to walk around dressed like this.
    We get it Sonam. Your husband owns a sneakers brand.

  4. There’s something to be said of the hot mess that Nor Black nor whatever that brand is, is. Leaving aside the horrendous grammar, all their clothes are just strange and unappealing. I understand off beat novelty, but this isn’t that. Sorry.

  5. I actually like the dress and would wear it. Anti-fit cotton dresses are the best thing to have happened to Indian fashion. I don’t think the dress needed the jeans, but there’s no denying she looks super comfy.
