First steps in fashion
It's the world 'of' and 'for' the fashionable. And starting young is the new tagline. Involving as much thinking as a new fashion line for a prêt couture collection, designers these days say the market for kids' clothes is as promising as the youngsters.
A prominent trend for 2011 is that of practical luxury or elegance as far as kids' clothing is concerned.

That magical drape called sari is spotted not just in the Indian woman's wardrobe, it has international connoisseurs too. From Brazilian model Gisele Bundchen to heiress Paris Hilton, they have all sported it, though like a dress.

Not in the Race
Not legally or because of personal issues, she is in trouble because of her dates. She has been chosen for Race 2 and also for Ayan Mukherji's next Yeh Jawaani Yeh Diwaani opposite ex-beau Ranbir Kapoor and both films' shooting starts in January 2012 so now she has to decide which film she will opt out of. Sources close to Deepika indicate that she will drop Race 2. |
Time for tantrums?
We have heard that Anushka Sharma was throwing tantrums at a recent award function in Delhi. She used to be calm before Band Baaja Baaraat released but these days she acts like a diva. Apparently, something at the function was not up to the mark, and she started swearing and shouting. We wonder if it is true! |
Madhuri in Dedh Ishqiya?
Once Madhuri relocates to Mumbai she will start shooting for Vishal Bharadwaj's Dedh Ishqiya where she has been paired opposite Irrfan Khan. Only Arshad Warsi will be seen in the sequel and he is paired with Kangna
Ranaut. |
