A personal opinion – some Indian designers do not take criticism sportingly. I feel they should and that way they can raise the bar higher. I have often been asked: “Do you have any problem with XYZ designer?’ I ask, “Why do you think so?” “No you have been critical of his/her work”. I say, […]
It was a satisfying day – the Day 3 at PCJ Delhi Couture Week 2012. Anju Modi’s Indian Couture and Manish Arora’s Global Couture were exhilarating. Thanks to Manish, we got a much-needed break from saree, shararas and lehengas. I strongly suggest my colleagues and peers to discard ‘press release’ so that one has an […]
This photo of porn star turned Bollywood actor Sunny Leone in a LBD flashing her yellow knickers made me reminisce about the rickety Kaali-Peeli (Black & Yellow) Taxis pre the CNG days. Yellow Top taxis or what we Dilliwalas used to call Kaali-Peeli have disappeared. Thank god for that! Now we have ‘Green Top’ taxis […]
Nothing like sipping bubbly and watching some great creations on the ramp. Well that exactly was what we were treated to on the 2nd Day at PCJ Delhi Couture Week 2012 at Anamika Khanna and Gaurav Gupta’s ‘off-site’ show at Evoluzione at The Kila in Mehrauli. Anamika Khanna’s couture collection was simply fabulous. The intricate […]

Everybody has the right to their esteemed opinion. But I think everyone will agree that it is absolutely unethical for an alternative fashion body to […]
The Day 1 of PCJ Delhi Couture Week 2012 was totally unadulterated fashion. Neither ‘drama queens’ fighting for front-row seats nor ‘Bollywood Stars’ sending the shutterbugs on a frenzy, distracted us. Personally for me it was an ideal atmosphere to enjoy fashion. Varun Bahl opened the PCJ Delhi Couture Week 2012 and must say it was […]
The PCJ Delhi Couture Week 2012 kicks-off today (8th August 2012) at the Taj Palace Hotel with two heavy-weight designers – Varun Bahl and JJ Valaya. Bahl calls his couture collection – India, Nouveau – and attempts to merge the classic evergreens of old India with the outlook of modern Indian dressing tastes. JJ […]
I simply love these photographs, which I ‘stole’ from Homi Adjania’s FB. Here you can see Anaita Shroff Adjania, the stylist for the movie Cocktail that was directed by her hubby- Homi Adjania. These pictures showing Saif Ali Khan in a ‘Drag’ get-up is obviously from his latest release – Cocktail. The expressions are hilarious. […]
Marilyn Monroe shocked the nation with her death on August 5, 1962—after she often shocked the nation with her amazing life. The film legend was only 36 years old, but managed to leave behind a legacy that still makes her one of the biggest celebrities around. Fortunately, that legacy included plenty of amazing pics that […]
Well the whole town knew that Priya Sachdev (Priya and Vikram Chatwal are officially divorced now) is dating the much-married Sunjay Kapur (better known as Karisma Kapoor’s hubby) but they denied and often came out with statements in the Press that all is hunky-dory between Sunjay and Karisma. The much-in-love couple – Priya and Sunjay […]
