Disha wore a velvet structured gown by Swapnil Shinde with a retro wavy do and a statement diamond and ruby necklace. No complaints here. She not only got the dress code right but also nailed it.

Also throwing me for a loop was Disha in this Falguni And Shane Peacock gown. Only because when a major event did beg for this look, she wore this. Now we have an event that could’ve used this dress but instead we have this grand ole gown appearance.
My frustrations aside, she did look good here and I won’t take that away from her. Cuz, I’m nice. Most of the time. ;)
P.S. Her jewellery is from Gehna.

Wearing a Michelle Mason silk maxi with Intoto sandals, Disha helped unveil her mobile app in Mumbai today. The maxi may have felt more like sleepwear but it was one she sure looked good in. I do have a weakness for emerald green and hence the love.

At the Zee Cine Awards, Disha was seen in a metallic one-shouldered mini by Monisha Jaising. If the night was about music, her look would’ve fit right in but given that it was about cinema, I do wish we’d seen something more formal from her.
I also thought the dress could’ve used a snazzier pair of sandals.

While many of us are still struggling with the February Already syndrome, India’s first fashion week of the year has come and gone. Held at Mumbai’s JioGarden from February 1- 5, Lakme Fashion Week Summer/Resort 2017 transported me to a mostly Mai Tai state of mind. I say mostly because sometimes I found myself in a sangeet.
Anyway, a little over a week later and here are the seven things that I still find myself thinking about…
1. You Go Gen Next!
Starring a bunch of talented designers, LFW’s Gen Next Show kickstarts each edition. Some of these debutants go on to launch super successful labels, others win coveted awards and a few manage to do both. Two labels that caught my eye this season were Soumodeep Dutta for his unmistakable Bengal school of fashion vibe and Poochki for their billowing breezy separates.

2. The Exploding Galaxy
Not the Samsung phones but just the ridiculous number of stars that descend down on one fashion week. (The ridiculous number of fashion weeks is a whole other column). Sushmita Sen, Bipasha Basu, Tabu, Diana Penty, Malaika Arora Khan, Daisy Shah, Padma Lakshmi. Sophie Choudry, Vaani Kapoor, Aditi Rao Hydari, Nimrat Kaur, Preity Zinta, Swara Bhaskar, Ayesha Takia… Showstopper. Overkill.

3. I Need Some AM.IT In My Life
Patola fused into plastic in AM.IT by Amit Aggarwal’s collection aptly titled Seamless. His pieces occupy the top 10 spots in my wishlist. Discarded saris, signature metallics and green means (and end) of fashion, this collection makes the right noises and looks equally fabulous. Now if only I can pre-order one of those dramatic pieces. And then find an OMG enough place to wear it to.

4. DeBo IS A Thing
Thanks to my blogger friends Priyanka and Payal who very helpfully coined the acronym DeBo (Desi Bohemian ICYMI), I am now convinced more than ever that DeBo is legit. Especially since nothing else seems to describe some looks from Label Ritu Kumar’s Maharaja Pop.
