Saree Get Together!

2009 01

In 2009, I send out an random invitation on FB for an event – Saree-Get-Together 2009 – and asking friends to join me for a high-tea at the Hilton Kuala Lumpur. It was a hot Saturday afternoon, but 10 beautiful girls took the invitation seriously and attended. The gathering was a huge success because I had not expected more than five to turn up. All strangers to one another until then, we had one thing in common – we  were all wearing the saree! We had a wonderful time, took lots of pictures, made friends and shared what we love about the saree…

L’Officiel magazine’s Bollywood Special coming September 20

L’Officiel magazine Bollywood Saree

L’Officiel magazine’s Special Bollywood feature will be spectacular for sure. Manish Malhotra is involved and Karan Johr is writing in it.

Glad they included some saree pictures in it. We will post more as the issue becomes public.

I know, some of you will say that this is not really a saree, but I am not purist about these things. I can’t ask people to think outside the box and then complain that they are outside the box. Saree is a six yards of fabric, there is no box.

I am thoroughly disappointed with the Femina pageant. The final award ceremony, we always so sarees. Just look at the pictures from last year and year before.

And this year, they have this hideous red gown that makes even the most beautiful women look like a misfit at a ball.
