I have to see this closely, but it seems like she may be wearing boots with the sareesque ensemble. That would be in interesting look.

Nice interplay of Ivory and zari by Anita Dongre. There was another pinkish/red saree that I liked better from her collection.

Western India Princess contestant in a saree – doesn’t work from several different views – makes her look shorter, the pallu is a bit awkward and some flexibility on how to drape is lost.

My grandmother told me a long time ago.. “son… if you don’t have anything good to say about somebody, you don’t have to comment, you can just go back to reading a newspaper.”

Satya Paul Saree at Lakme India Fashion week – I think it is called “Death by colors”

I showcased this saree a few days and I HATED the disjointed border then and I still do.

I thought it was worth a second look.
