Salman Khan & Lara Dutta Model at Guru Launch


Karisma Kapoor at the launch of California Almonds

Karisma Kapoor: Hands down one of the most beautiful woman in the world (after Rita Hayworth, that is!). Here are some photos of her at the launch of California Almonds in New Delhi. She looks absolutely stunning in a pink shalwar kameez, as usual. Always fashion forward, and such an icon.

Showstopper: Malaika Arora Khan at Lakme Fashion Week

Malaika Arora Khan was one of my favorite models at Lakme Fashion Week, 2010. She looked absolutely radiant and goddess-like as she walked the ramp.

It's Raining Gold: Lara Dutta at Lakme 2010

I love Lara Dutta and honestly believe that she is one of the most beautiful actresses in Bollywood--BUT I'm not digging her attire at Lakme Fashion Week, 2010. I guess it's not her fault, the designer is Raakesh Agarvwal, but Lara did consent to wear it--and walk in it! It just looks like beaded gold strings rained on her, or that she was doing a sleazy item number in a hindi movie. Whatever the excuse, it's inexcusable. The dress is definitely not fashion forward, it's just tacky. Cleopatra-inspired?! Really?????


Showstopper: Deepika Padukone at Lakme 2010

Like many, if not most, Bollywood actresses, Deepika Padukone decided to mix modeling and acting: She walked the ramp at Lakme Fashion Week this month. She was sporting an Audrey Hepburn-inspired gown, which I find to be absolutely beautiful (reminds me of a cupcake, for some reason, though). The gown was created by designers Gauri and Nainika. They did an amazing job, and Deepika was definitely glowing.

Scroll down to see her photos from her photoshoot with India's Harper's Bazaar a few months ago.



Shilpa Shetty Graces Harper's Bazaar

Bollywood actress and model Shilpa Shetty will be featured in Harper's Bazaar's October issue (the Indian version, that is). The simplicity of her photoshoot is alluring, and she poses mostly in Christian Dior dresses. Shilpa is known as a sex symbol or "item girl" in Bollywood, so I was pleasantly surprised to see her sporting an elegant look. I'm especially in love with the shimmering gold and silver sari Shilpa is wearing with red heels.
