Hey Maria... GREAT Post... Keep them comming in future too

Great post Maria. I think my comment is going to be rather long, but I'm tempted to express my fashion views... so, brace yourself. :)

Well a classic sari is just that, classic, elegant, flowy, timeless. But I think it would be a nice change to see some Bollywood actresses adorn these couture dresses to the award shows in the coming year.

Aishwarya Rai: Second row from top, gray beaded dress with the stepped tulle layers on the left. I need Ash to step away from her boring cream sari disaster from this year’s awards show. That was only a few weeks after her wedding to Abhi was announced and I had expected to see her in something really colorful. This dress, although not colorful, still makes a huge statement. The oversized jacket is a bit distracting from the dress. I’m not sure if I like the super loose sleeves on it. But the dress scores big with me.
Preity Zinta: She can carry western wear like no other. But I’m not sure anything on this list will suit her style.
Rani Mukherjee: Rani always looks really great in saris, very elegant and put together. But I would love to see her break out and step into a gown one day and see how she will carry herself. I don’t think any dress on this list will compliment her short frame, but I would love to see her rock the red carpet in a full or cocktail length dress some day.
Lara Dutta: Last row, silver gray dress to the left. Lara is no doubt tall and has a long pair of legs. I think she’s got the confidence to wear the mile long slit that this dress has. And the asymmetrical shoulder brings the eye to the top of the dress.
Shilpa Shetty: Third row from the bottom, pleated metallic gray dress on the left. Shilpa has been wearing a lot of form fitting dresses of late. I would like to see in this not-so-tight number. It dress has a nice plunging neckline for those who the “sexy” and still leaves a lot to the mystery. The pleats create volumes of visual interest.
Kareena Kapoor: Third row down, flower strap dress to the left.
Bipasha Basu: First row, dress to the right. I think Bips would look great in a cocktail length version of this dress minus the scarf. I love the style of this dress and the detail at the bodice.
Katrina Kaif: Third row down, white hued dress to the right.
Kangana Ranaut: Last row, black and gray neck strap dress to the right … OR … fourth row down, black ruffle layered dress to the right.
Malaika Arora: Second row from the bottom, satin asymmetrical gown to the right.
Suzanne Khan: Second row from the bottom, chiffon flowy dress to the left. I know, she’s not an actress but she’s got that something… you want to see more of her. I think she’ll be able to pull off this vintage dress very nicely.
