I have been strongly writing about how Bollywood show-stoppers are suicidal for designers – be it jewellery or apparel designers. And yes who should be blamed? Well I blame the media for it! The India International Jewellery Week (IIJW) concluded in Mumbai last week. But what did I get to read in newspapers & internet […]
When Yana Gupta was clicked without her panty she had the guts to be honest in accepting it but others like Shamita Shetty earlier and Preeti Jhangiani most recently resort to denial and blame it on publishers. I did not understand what delivering a baby got to do with panties (or no panties). Someone please […]

Chanel had to recall Silk Scarves and Garments due to Violation of Federal Flammability Standard. Purveyor of some of the most desirable high-end luxury goods, Chanel […]
The bi-annual Lakme Fashion Week was losing sheen with not so great designers showcasing their work.

Amy Winehouse, the Grammy-award winning singer who has battled addiction problems for years, was found dead on Saturday at her apartment in London, the police said. She was 27. Now if you wondering what the hell is ‘J’ Club, well Amy joins the legends of Rock – Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix, all of who […]
It’s not everyday that you get to hear of Bollywood Stars throwing a party for their Non-Bollywood Buddy. The reverse is obviously happening every other day. Fashionscandal.com has learnt that Raveena Tandon and Zayed Khan are hosting a Surprise Champagne Soiree for their buddy Manav Gangwani. I discovered Manav doesn’t have an inkling of this. […]
The 2nd Delhi Couture Week kicks of tomorrow at the Taj Palace Hotel. The faux fashionistas of the city are all talking about couture so I need not bore you with the same stuff. Have you heard of Couture Condoms, Couture Drugs, Couture Donuts or Couture Coke (the drinking one, not the snorting one)??? Well […]
