Kareena Kapoor & Karisma Kapoor at St. Mary Church For Christmas Mid Night Mass
Malaika looked absolutely stunning in this black gown at the mass!
Sridevi in Manish Malhotra Collection
This designer kalidar suit is worn by the former Indian actress Sridevi. She wears this heavily embroidered Anarkali dress at the wedding reception of Rriddhi Malhotra Wedding Reception (Sister Punit Malhotra) held in the month of December, 2014 in Mumbai.
At a recent event, SriDevi Kapoor donned a half and half saree by Manish Malhotra. We absolutely love the combination of the ombré teamed up with shades of black and Marsala. She accessorized her ethnic look with statement ear studs and a ring. Pulled back hair do and a Marsala box clutch completed her look. We love her grace!
Sridevi In Manish Malhotra At Anil Kapoor’s Birthday Bash
Sridevi was one of the guests attending Anil Kapoor’s birthday bash in Mumbai. For her favourite costar’s special day, she chose a Manish Malhotra gown.
Now I don’t know where to begin from. Bit surprised that this outfit came from Manish Malhotra’s collection, a designer who masters in creating colourful romantic creations. Not only the lehenga looks outdated but also surprised at the choice of clutch and jewellery which makes the whole getup too crowded.

Sridevi never ceases to give us serious #sareegoals. The ageless actress attended Chiranjeevi's Birthday Bash in a glittering Manish Malhotra saree and sported embellished clutch and statement earrings.
we recently saw Queen Sridevi in another Manish Malhotra ensemble. The black plain black anarkali on Sridevi had beautiful gold embroidery on the sleeve and mirror-work applique on the neckline. Sridevi's Manish Malhotra suit was finished off with a sheer dupatta that had similar work at the borders.
The South Goddess wore an elaborate Manish Malhotra gown. Simple straight hair, diamond studs in her ears and diamond rings in her fingers rounded her look. For ladies with heavy busts, this sort of design with a flowing skirt will work wonders. It will take away all the attention from your bust and make them look slender. By the way, we like her heavy outfit and minimal jewellery approach. She looked lovely!

Sonam Kapoor dazzles in Arpita Mehta
Sonam Kapoor donned a gorgeous mirror-work white and gold lehenga by Arpita Mehta to attend one of the recent dos. As much as we loved the outfit, we also loved the kundan jewellery – the earrings and the maang tika that she wore to go with the lehenga.

At Work
Fashion week allows us to reach out to a larger audience, which is otherwise difficult as a young designer. The morning of a show, I head to the venue, check that all the clothes have been taken backstage for steam-ironing and have been allotted to each of the model helpers. Then I must get the showstopper ready and check on the show rehearsals with the models, choreographers and stylists. My showstopper this season at the Lakme Fashion Week was Malaika Arora Khan. She was extremely professional, punctual and an absolute pleasure to work with.
