Gayatri was seen at a store opening wearing a top and tie-dye pants set from Louis Vuitton paired with an Hermès Kelly pochette. I am not particularly fond of logo-wear but since I can’t quite see it here, am not disliking the outfit. You like?

Ms. Gupta was seen at the launch of a jewellery store in Mumbai wearing a color-blocked maxi from Payal Khandwala paired with a white clutch. I loved this simple yet striking look on her.

Sudha Reddy was another Indian in attendance at the Met Gala who opted for a Tarun Tahiliani corset and skirt set finishing out the look with a diamond necklace that could possibly buy up a few countries.
To me, this outfit didn’t really stand out, we’ve just seen so many similar styles before, but what was the final nail in the coffin was the fact that the corset featuring an minature painting style embroidery of her own face “holding the MET gala rose, as an offering of peace and love”. What the!? Am face-palming over here. What about you?

Shanti Banaras celebrated their one year anniversary of their Mumbai store with a performance by Usha Uthup wearing a sari for the label, but of course. In attendance were also the ladies below wearing saris from the brand. I was drawn to Kirti and Shweta’s outfits just a wee bit more. What about you?

As soon as the Met Gala dress code is unveiled, planning starts for all would-be guests on what to wear. Ms. Ambani alongwith stylist Anaita picked Rahul Mishra to create a custom look for her which eventually was a gold sari with an extended pallu featuring the designer’s floral appliques. A photoshoot ahead of the event was also held as is the norm now.
Except, Isha never got to attend the event but a choice was made to release the photoshoot pics and details about the sari. From a designer’s perspective, I can understand releasing the video and images because it was a custom design with a particular dress code in mind. I just hope that this isn’t the only sighting of this sari. I hope Isha gives us a real life view of this sari perhaps at a different event just because all that labor deserves an outing.
