The Fashion Of The Season—Lehengas In White Shades

When I start writing this blog, mercury in Ahmedabad is touching 44 C marks, but there would be chilling winds in Australia and may be different things in other regions of the globe. Since my major audience is belong to India at this moment I would like to talk about the Summer of India.

I am pretty sure that you most have same experience of scorching heat as mine. Albeit we have ACs there, but we can’t confine up to them all the time. Now, summer weddings are up and our calendars are full of red signs for invitations for wedding receptions, parties, song & dance rituals, etc. Some of our mature members have a separate set of summer collections in their wardrobes, but what about the gals who like to follow new trends of this season?

If you are the experimenting kinds, you have loads of options in modern drapes and their styles. Therefore, let me introduce my latest collections for this season.

We know well that summer forces us to select attires, which are comfortable in all sense. Believe me or not, lehengas are fabulous in all sense. Thus, my first choice for lehenga of this season is white lehengas or shades of white colors like off-white, cream, beige, etc.

My first recommendation is Shriya Saran White Lehenga Choli, for the modern and contemporary designs lover in particular.

 

I adore this drape because this lehenga choli crafted in dual material and net is dominant, which is the best choice for heat season whilst its zari and resham work in embroidery is cool and comfortable for the skins of most of us. Differently designed choli and elegant lehenga are making this outfit graceful.

My second selection is Priyanka Chopra style off-white Lehenga that is not only for sake of being off-white, but also due to its faux georgette and net fabric that save our body from the strenuous conditions of this heat season.

 

Lovely velvet choli and use of lovely bead, shiny lace, multi and resham embroidery work. Sequins are powerful enough to reflecting light of surrounding.

My third choice is fish cut sparkling white lehenga choli. This definitely will make you a fish of the fashion sea.

 

Brocade choli on bust is creating a synergy with light grey work on buttas of the lehenga and see-through stole is reminiscent with highly stitched border. This drape is granting serenity in your personality and cools the eyes of others in this hot season.

If you are obsessed with off-white, this sparkling off-white lehenga is not a kooky idea at all. If you need more deviation from the total white the beautiful embellishment with golden threads, zari and zardozi are enough.

A matching colorful duptta will make you fit for wedding like ceremony where total white may give you a remembrance of widows of previous century.

Style & Smile Diva Madhuri Dixit celebrates her 46th Birthday

 

Bollywood’s most iconic actresses, Madhuri Dixit will feature among the foremost as she ruled the industry through the 90s. A trendsetter in fashion, powerful actress, spectacular dancer, she is almost an iconic legend of sorts! As the gorgeous lady celebrates her 46th birthday, Fashion ka Fatka’s presents special styles of the Dhak Dhak Girl.

Her ada and her million dollar smile can still make any man, go weak in his knees.

Coming from a simple Maharashtrian background, Madhuri Dixit never let stardom get to her. Always staying a family person, she has been very close to her parents and siblings.

No offense to any of our leading ladies, but it takes a lot to have Madhuri’s charisma. Despite acting well, many actresses fail to leave an impression on the audiences because of their dull screen value. With her exquisite ability to stand out in a crowd, her glowering presence was indomitable unlike many actresses today who get lost in a plethora of side artistes!

At 46, she is still flexible. Returning to public view as the dance show host of Jhalak Dikhla Jaa’s Fifth season, she is still extremely flexible and fit. She might rubbish it as the hard work of motherhood, running around her two children, the actress evidently maintains herself with a strict regime. While most actresses with age lose their figure and charm, Madhuri maintains it all with unparalleled beauty.

On Madhuri Dixit Nene’s 46th birthday, the makers of Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani unveiled the first look of her item song Ghagra.

Ranbir Kapoor, who is a self-confessed Maduri Dixit fan since childhood revealed that it was producer Karan Johar’s idea to have Madhuri for the item number.

We bet you will forget all Munnibai, chamelis and Badmash Bablis after watching Madhuri shaking legs with RK Junior in item Song ‘Ghaghra’ for Yeh Jawani hai Diwani

SRIDEVI AND JHANVI

Sridevi, the super diva of 80’s isn’t out of glamorous world of Bollywood, at least not from the memories. Now she is bashing in many events with her teen-age daughter Jhanvi. We consider Jhanvi a prospective talk of B-town in coming days as she carries hottie genes from her mother and it is hard to tell mother from daughter.

TANUJA AND KAJOL

Here is not only Mother-Daughter duo, but entire generation is of successful actresses. This began from The Chatterejees as she was the mother of the earthly beauty of its time. She had gifted silver screen Tanuja, who won hearts of people of the fashion world in 70s with her contemporary fashion beauty.

Today she is attaching, with big names of Bollywood in her recent projects.

A Glimpse at Bollywood Supermoms

Motherhood is the greatest pleasure in the life of a woman and being the women Bollywood actresses are not spared from this and they too crave for this pleasure in their life. Usually when an actress get motherhood she detached from the glamour world or opt for less significant roles, but there are few supermoms who still manage their dual roles as super actresses as well as super mom beautifully with adequate responsibilities.

Let’s take a glimpse at these Bollywood supermoms in this moms post!

Shilpa Shetty is one the supermoms who manage her personal life beautifully dividing her time between work and home by spending quality time with family. During pregnancy, Shilpa had criticism for her body fat, but surprisingly she loses nearly 18 kilos within three months period. This is indicating her strong desires to manage the life by her own wits.

The same criticisms were showered on the beauty queen and most admirable personality of Bollywood silver screens Aishwarya Rai Bachchan

when she gained post pregnancy weight. According to media she was not remained a charming personality as she was before pregnancy and reasons were pointing towards her weight. When she walked on the red carpet at the “AmfAR Cinema Against Aids” gala in Cannes Film Festival she has shut all grumblings at the moment. This incident is clearly pointing her capabilities to balance her personal as well as professional lives successfully being a super mom.

Our “Lolo” is sitting in the same bench of supermom and she is none, but Karishma Kapoor a successful actress of Bollywood. She is a down to earth figure as she was revealing secretes of her coquettish smile and chirpy style at the age of 38. She has prised the adequate availability of wide range of healthy foods in modern time and awareness of people to keep themselves healthy and fit. According to her, she has managed her hourglass figure with lots of efforts and kept good balance between her kids and her professional life.

Raveena Tandon is found of kids therefore, she has adopted two kids as a single mother before marriage and later on she married with Thandani and gave birth to Rasha and then Ranbir. Despite these she has managed her work and personal life satisfactory.

There are many other supermoms in Bollywood industry, but a few deserve citation here and they are:

Kajol as she is rising two kids and doing work with same capacities as she was doing before

Madhuri Dixit is an outstanding figure in Indian cinema and she maintained her status till today despite rising two kids simultaneously

Juhi Chawla is a prominent figure of Bollywood screen and got a big fame at her time. At present she is attending her family as well as work with equal importance and fall in a category of the Bollywood supermom.

TV Soaps Effect on Current Fashion Trends

In India TV soap operas became famous after 2000. Indian soaps became weekly to daily and the word prime time become popular in industry. The main contributor and influential factor was “K” factor. The reason behind Ekta Kapoor’s fame was her choice of the subject. She used to work on family subject because India culture is more or less family centric and all members of the family bound by traditions and festivals.

Since then Indian soaps are family centric and stories are revolving around the certain characters thus these characters are become the part of our life and becomes the symbols of our aspirations thus they are seem our idols and new generation is easily draws to follow them blindly. The most influential factor is cloths that these characters are wearing in daily soaps.

In order to make character more influential soap directors are using various dresses and appearance and these costumes are changing time-to-time with the flow of story. Thus, in K-series fashion designer Nim Sood  is using expensive saris to make her characters glamorous. This thing heavily influenced the bridal fashions and real-life brides are going gaga to incorporate the same appearance in their trousseau. This way Kyunki; Kahaani and Prerna saris become popular throughout the world of Indian origins.

The satin saree and stylish choli of Komolika in Kasauti Zindagii Kay becomes the most copied TV star and it was Urvashi Dholakia. Same the way Balika Vadhu has set new trends in various attires recently. You will find live discussion on the elegant ghagra cholis as well as on the floor-length multi color lehengas embellished with semi-precious gemstones. At the extreme point, we will find the category tag in special sections devoted to ‘serial sarees’

There are many actress who are wearing various designs on different events are ultimately copied by designers and set a new trend in the fashion cloth market like: Shilpa Shetty in London premier peach show, Aishwarya Rai in white Anarkali, and Madhuri Dixit in many events. Many soap operas are shoot out of Mumbai and directors select some particular places like Haryana where Patiala dresses are famous so the local costumes are reach at the rage when such serials shows local culture in details.

Multi color dresses were rare before soaps but now many followers of such soaps are now willingly accept the multi-color Anarkali in the big or small events. Red dresses are vogue in our traditions and now red sarees replaced by red hot Anarkali so many brides are rushing towards the designer Anarkali and demanding the Nargis Fakhri style Anarkali in many shops.
