Detailed View of Shilpa Shetty’s engagement saree
Click on the picture for a better view. As you may already know, the saree was designed by Manish Malhotra and he referred to it as a “simple saree”. Also see the previous post on Shilpa Shetty Engagement Saree
I thought it was perfect saree for the occasion. And I understood the simple aspect of it as well – it is glitzy enough but at the same time it leaves enough room to add more glamour to it.

Here is Shilpa in her pink Manish Malhotra saree.
“I have designed a very pretty pink saree with a red border for Shilpa. It’s a very simple saree.”
This is what Manish had to say about the saree! I guess his concept of simple is too complex for me to understand.
The body of the saree is simple but there is enough glamour, very appropriate for the occasion.
We wish Shilpa and Raj the very best! Hopefully they will get married soon and we will get to feast on some really complicated design by Manish!
Wordless Wednesday Saree!
On Wednesdays, we let the sarees do all the talking! Lets not go in to what this saree is saying!
I think he is holding on to the saree and thinking .. :Vow, real silk saree! this fabric is so smooth…”

It was nice to see Sushmita back on the ramp after a long time and she looked ravishing at the fourth day of Lakme Fashion Week 2010.
Sushmita was the showstopper for Vikram Phadnis wedding collection and wore a gold lehenga and choli.
No models, no ramps, just beautiful people with beautiful sarees

Gorgeous piece from Manish, oppulent, over the top, attractive, lavish, luxurious, and rich!
Not sure how it reflects the theme of “earth”, but who cares!
This is from Kolkata Fashion Week, September 14, 2009.
