The day dawned and we were looking forward to the grand evening ahead. Met early and wondering what to wear(typical girls!!). We had to look aptly dressed for the occasion as this was no ordinary party, it spelt grandeur and royalty from the very word go, that was enough pressure on us to make sure we looked out best and more importantly not make a fool of ourself!! So, after all the hunting around for that perfect outfit, and most often bumping into what we thought would serve better as costume party stores(!), we decided to go the traditional way, and so we arrived at the Palace draped in 6yards of lovely silk looking our best!! As we entered and saw the crowds gather we were so glad we dressed the way we did, since that was the theme running this evening. We settled into our seats, and then began an hour of pure torture. Why (?) if you care to ask... it was a fashionista's worst dressed nightmare unfolding, and for the next 56min as the host put it(!) silk, silk and more silk was thrown into every single piece made. We all have this notion of how we would love to have those few exclusive designer pieces, but after having seen this one, ufffffff... we decided we could bring out something better than this, given the kind of access designers have to all things best.
So, let me give a few fashion bloopers of the evening...so get your imagination running !!
1. A silk bikini tube with ruffles flapping as the model walked !!
2. Bikini to start off with, and the designer thinks oops too much skin show, so let me just cover it with bits of sheer cloth!!
3. Harem pants which are now a rage made in plain silks- what is deisgner bout that?
4. More silk thrown at our face, this time in the form of frills from start to finish.. just got me back to my kinder garden- fancy dress days!!
5. Now it was the Lehega's which had motifs which were sooooooo blaaaaaahhhh to say the least, guess B'lore's Chikapet would surely do better than them.
6. Then came the Sari's with the skimpy bikini blouses! If that was not enough the models posing.. simply hillarious.. you have to be there to know what im talking about...except for the front runner top model, rest were i must say very very new to the business.... !!
7. Hosla ka Ghosla i would like to call it, the hair was a nest sitting on each ones head and guess the designer was going with the go green campaign, since they had leaves and flowers growing on them.
8. And how could i not mention our very own "Iron lady" for the night, who each time had us in splits when she wud run through this routine of "pause-pose-hands on the hip-suck in tummy" religiously!!
So, all in all was an entertainer for us, and not that i have anything against designers, but really i wondered who would want to be draped in such ill fitting silk!! Sorry Mr Designer...... guess you should just stick to being a King!!
Hahahah Shweths You are jus AWESOME!!! This description applies for many shows these days :P
ReplyDeleteI feel that as we move towards the future, the way people dress is moving towards stone age :D These "designers" are just trying to bring outdated styles into the current scene...
