Harpers Bazaar India has a spread with six designers paying homage to the Swarovski crystal and how it has influenced their design. We spotted Manish wear his blue kurta again for the editorial but what’s freaking us out is why only Bal channeled his inner ‘Joker’ while others were photographed as is.

You can check out the whole spread featuring the six designers here.

For a fashionista, we are surprised that she doesn’t keep close tabs on what others have worn/been photographed in already! (see here) Unless, its about proving who wears it better??!! Ahem. Ahem. ;)

You be the judge! But, in case if you want to get your hands on it, its available for a mere $1500! (That is, if you have the change to spare!) :)

The recent edition of Harpers Bazaar India features Sonam Kapoor shot by Atul Kasbekar at the Emirates Palace in Abu Dhabi. Unlike her last spread for Hi Blitz which focused on Louis Vuitton, this spread has Sonam wearing a lot of Cartier jewels and accessories in addition to wearing clothes by Pucci, LV and Marc Jacobs.

You can catch her interview here.

When Tarun Tahiliani considers you a muse, it shouldn’t be a surprise that one of the editorial outfits seen on you is one of his creation. Spotted on Mehr, a Tarun Tahiliani creation from the Spring 2009 collection.

You can catch more of her shoot inside…

Update: The cover outfit is a Ferretti and the first black is a Chanel. Thanks ‘anoo’ and ‘mukulika’. Seems like the 2nd is too because those seem like Chanel beads on Ms. Jessia.

A few of you had asked about Deepika’s necklace from the Harpers Bazaar shoot. Turns out it was a Valentino from the Spring 2009 collection. She also wore an orange Raakesh Agarvwal swimsuit.
