Fashion Week Snapshots:

Bollywood outshines Surily's clothes

How many celluloid stars does it take to light up a show? If you go by Surily Goel's estimate, atleast three on ramp and seven odd more in the front row.

You'd think it was a Bollywood awards show with the number of celebs that lined Surily's show.

With Neelam Kothari rendering sweet and girly, an African inspiration tube dress, followed by Salman lending his trademark maschismo to the velvet suit emblazoned "Royalty" and Malaika Arora rounding off the catwalk with a huge dose of sultry style, the show seemingly had something for everyone.
Well, in her own words: "Clothes are not just embellishments that enhance one's personality they also reflect it. I ensure that there is only one point of emphasis in every garment I design. To define my design philosophy with three adjectives clarity, wearablity and most of all versatility."

She appears to be sticking to her mantra with mixed results.


Too much of a good thing?

The dress code for Manish Malhotra's special invitees appears to have been black and white, what with the ramp decked out in pure black and the collection that graced it fashioned in ethereal white.

Here's Sangeeta Bijlani with cricketer husband Azhar, dressed in what can only be termed a study in variegated black and white stripes. While the suit is classy and as we overheard an Armani, the sailor striped tee could have been given a clear miss for something solid. Same goes for the satin handbag... simply a stripe too many.

Absolutely delicious thought are the sassy zebra sandals. Let's just train our eyes on those.
