In Payal Singhal


Promotions on Thursday saw Ms. Bhatt in a Payal Singhal look fresh off the LFW runway. Picking up on the fringe of the tunic, her look was finished out with fringe earrings and gold sandals. The low bun may have felt like a mature option but it worked here.
She looked cute.

In Payal Singhal


Alia visited the sets of Kapil Sharma Show on Sunday wearing a Payal Singhal look fresh off the Lakme Fashion Week runway. Picking up on the shimmery long vest, her look was finished out with gold ankle-strap sandals.

While she looked great in the dressy look, I loved how she went from dressy to casual in two steps at Shahid’s birthday party by swapping the vest and wearing kolhapuris.

The Seven Somethings


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.

In Payal Singhal


Wearing Payal Singhal, Sayani attended the screening of Jolly LLB 2 on Thursday and sported the same earrings and bindi from her sari look on Tuesday. While I don’t have an issue with re-wearing the accessories, in skipping on the cape that was featured with the separates, Ms. Gupta veered into the bizarre territory with this look. Especially when you consider that big bindi.

Was she shooting for a Mauja hi Mauja reboot?
