Veere Di Wedding marks Abu Jani - Sandeep Khosla's return to Bollywood
After pulling off a casting coup for Veere Di Wedding, producer Rhea Kapoor (who will also be styling the big-ticket entertainer) has now managed to get designer duo Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla on board! The celebrated designers will be working on all the Indian clothes for this film. They will be customising outfits for the ensemble star cast, infusing their signature Indian craftsmanship and textile heritage with European tailored silhouettes.
What’s even more exciting is that Veere Di Wedding will be the first Bollywood film Abu-Sandeep will be working on after 15 years. The designers last did the costumes for Devdas, for which they won the National Award for Best Costume Design (along with designers Neeta Lulla and Reza Sharifi).

While not much is known at this juncture, sources reveal that Abu- Sandeep will be opening up their design archives from years ago and digging out some really amazing looks for the film.
What they do promise is to showcase their legacy for Indian wear that will retain pride and respect in everything that is beautiful about our culture and country, yet appeal to those with global taste.
Starring Kareena Kapoor Khan, Sonam Kapoor, Swara Bhaskar and Shikha Talsania, Veere di Wedding promises to be a fun ride that explores the spirit of the modern Indian woman. Produced by Rhea Kapoor & Ekta Kapoor and directed by Shashank Ghosh, the film will have a 2018 release.

Decoding Shahid Kapoor's look as Maharawal Ratan Singh
While Deepika Padukone stole hearts with her ethereal costume and regal look in the first poster of Padmavati, Shahid Kapoor’s look took things a notch above. In less than a day since it's launch, Kapoor's look as the Rajput ruler - Maharawal Ratan Singh, has already become the talk of the town. One can't help but praise Kapoor's avatar, complete with lavish regalia, chiseled body, the perfect beard & mooch.
Designers Rimple and Harpreet Narula explain that designing Shahid’s costumes was a tedious job. “There is tremendous research that has gone behind every costume that Shahid will be seen wearing in the film," said Harpreet. In fact, it took 4 months to design the actor’s costumes for Padmavati.
She further explains, “We sourced organic fabrics from Rajasthan that were then embroidered by hand by 22 local artisans. We have stuck to pure muslin cloth as the base, and then, used vegetable dye or hand dye. While we tried to use hues that are associated with masculinity, we also had to balance it with brighter colours, since Rajasthani outfits are all about colour at the end of the day."
The four month grueling process took them to the museums of Jaipur and Ahmedabad. Rimple adds, "We would often collect old fabrics, or buy antiques like brooch or pins from flea markets. We have used these trinkets in Padmavati."
There is tremendous research that has gone behind every costume that Shahid will be seen wearing in the film -- Designer Rimple of Rimple & Harpreet Narula
Presented by Viacom18 Motion Pictures and Bhansali Productions, Padmavati is helmed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, who has also composed the music. Starring Shahid Kapoor, Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh among others, the film will release in cinemas on December 1, 2017.

With this, she became the first Indian to close a show at the Paris Fashion Week. Honestly, we couldn't take our eyes off Sonam, who looked every inch a fashion goddess in a pristine white bridal gown. The Neerja star turned show stopper for the luxury brand's Autumn Winter 2017/2018 couture show. She truly gave the classic Ralph & Russo bride an Indian twist.
When asked about her experience at the R&R showcase, Sonam said, "It was surreal. I enjoyed every moment of it. Michael and Tamara are dear friends and I'm so happy I could do this for them."
Over the years, the actress has always left us awe-inspired with her versatile looks, fresh take on everyday fashion and impeccable sense of style. She has always dared to be different.
No doubt, Kapoor is easily one of India's biggest and most celebrated fashion icons today.

Levi's 501 CT launched in India--------------------------------------------------------
The original blue jean now gets customized and tapered
For those of you who follow us on Twitter and Instagram, you must have noticed some fun pictures and updates from the #LiveInLevis 501 CT launch event in Mumbai. The event was nothing less than a lesson in the world of Levi's, as it gave us a glimpse into the ever evolving history of the brand. Taking us through this delightful session was the stylish and amazingly talented Yosuke Otsubo - Head of Sales and Marketing (Asia, Middle East and Africa), who looked every inch a Levi's lover in his customized pair of jeans; and Sanjay Purohit - Managing Director for South Asia (India, Sri Lanka, Nepal and Bangladesh) Levi's Strauss & Co, who walked in wearing his customized and tapered 501 CT.
The Levi’s 501, the world’s first-ever blue jean featuring a timeless straight leg, relaxed fit and signature button fly, has earned a named for being the most coveted jean in the world. While understanding its evolution over the years, I realized that each pair of jean had a story behind it. Patched, repaired, shredded or tapered, the Levi’s 501 Jean reflects how people live their lives. Now for Spring 2015, Levi's is proud to introduce the new 501 CT (Customized & Tapered) which features an extensive range of sizes, colors and finishes. The folks at Levi's noticed how the 501 jean wearers have been customizing their jeans for decades, most commonly tailoring the legs for a closer fit. Hence, they thought of doing this work for them. Hence, they took the Original 501 and added a custom taper, crafting the perfect fit for a modern take on the classic 501 jean. The new 501 CT has a little more room at the waist, so it sits slightly lower for a more relaxed fit, and has been tapered around the leg from the knee to the ankle.
In line with their Spring 2015 Collection’s homage to San Francisco, the season’s 501 CT Jean is available in a range of authentic denim washes, inspired by San Francisco and California - the home of Levi’s and the Original 501. With names like Precita (inspired by a vintage garment, we’ve done a blend of stone and enzyme washing, with added tinting and grinding), Old Favorite (the ultimate worn-in look, with bleach sprays and knee rips), Cali Cool (a medium authentic wash with some hand-sanding and enzyme washing) and Rolling Fog (stone washed and bleached, inspired by the city’s storied fog and plays of light) it would not be wrong to say that this line wonderfully celebrates the past, present and future of Levi’s with great style. Depending on the size you choose and your desired look, the 501® CT can be worn slim, regular or more relaxed in the thigh.
And, I have got a pair of these amazingly comfortable and stylish 501 CT jean as well. Can't wait to style it in one of my upcoming outfit shoots for you guys. Till then, why don't you head to the Levi's store and get your hands on this beauty as well?

Well, the two cold-weather buffers converge in the latest Nike Tech Pack, a line that has reappraised staples and elevated them to aid the modern athlete, season after season, since 2007.
The benefits of fleece and down reach their pinnacle in the Holiday Nike Tech Pack collection as Nike Tech Fleece and Nike Aeroloft technologies work together for not just comfort, but also protection.

New range of Nike Zoom Fit Agility launched
All you Nike fans in the house (and those who swear by sports shoes), this one is for you! The brand has launched their all new collection of the Nike Zoom Fit Agility range, keeping in mind the insights of an athlete, with a 'never say never' spirit. The gorgeous pair of training shoes feature the highly responsive Nike Zoom Air, which helps in adding an extra spring in the female athlete’s step. Armed with this responsiveness, the athlete need not worry about the workout’s final stage.
In Nike Zoom Air, tightly stretched tensile fibers are woven inside a pressurized Nike Air unit. Upon impact, these fibers release their tension and then snap back to their original state. This generates ideal responsiveness for athletes looking to quickly navigate each step of their workouts. However, let us inform you that the traditional Nike Zoom applications most often don't provide the flexibility that female athletes demand in the gym. To solve this dilemma, the designers at Nike broke the Nike Zoom Air in the Nike Zoom Fit Agility into independent air bags, allowing the shoe to flex in multiple directions. Each bag is placed in hexagonal rubber pods and strategically positioned where the female athlete needs cushioning most.
One look at the stunning pair and you can notice that the shoe’s upper part is a blend of lightweight mesh and foam. The mesh allows some air, while the foam lends support, flexibility and comfort. Nike dynamic Flywire loosens and tightens with the movement of the foot for an adaptive fit. In addition, the heel construction features added padding near the collar that works to deliver increased comfort and restrict movement for a more secure fit. Moreover, these beauties are available in a variety of colors, making it ideal for a sportswear meets casual or luxury look.
