Adding the extra zing to the outfits, they walked the ramp exuding confidence, complete with the right stilettos, the accessories and the tiny thin waists!

Behind the lens
Celina Jaitley:
We have too many problems with Celina's look here. Those pale-blue lenses make her look terrible! Her legs look super sexy and the dress could have passed off as cute. If you look closely, you will notice that the buttons will pop any minute as it is very tight around the bust.
