When I first heard that Bipasha was walking the ramp at the first Kolkata Fashion Week, I assumed she would do it for her favorite designers, Gauri-Nainika. Which is why, seeing her walk for Monapali is quite a surprise. She sported a very Bengali look wearing a sari with a red puffed full sleeve blouse and a big bindi.

This look was a welcome change and I do wish she would sport this more and by that I mean traditional wear. But then that is just asking for too much! :P

P.S. You can also see her sport the same look at a press conference two years ago here and we thought she looked great then too.

Considering they hail from Kolkata, it was no surprise to see the Sen sisters walk the ramp at the first ever Kolkata Fashion Week. They walked for the show ‘Story of Weaves’ that presented different weaves by local weavers.

P.S. We are as puzzled as you are as to why Riya is wearing (what looks like) a swimming costume underneath! :P

Neha Dhupia walked for Falguni and Shane Peacock at the newly created Kolkata Fashion Week. She wore a bubble-skirt gown quite similar to what Farah had worn for the designer duo at the Lakme Fashion Week Spring 2009 collection.

Care for either version or neither?
