Esha Deol's Mehandi Ceremony

Neeta Lulla was the designer of choice for the Deol ladies at Esha's mehendi ceremony. Bride-to-be Esha chose a Neeta Lulla lehenga, while mom Hema Malini chose a Neeta Lulla saree. 
Esha Deol looked demure and crazily beautiful in a yellow and green Neeta Lulla lehenga at her Mehendi Ceremony Party.





Esha's net lehenga was embellished with heavy silver work in paisley designs. She paired it with a midriff covering green chiffon brocade blouse that featured short sleeves and scoop neckline. 
The darker yellow net dupatta was accented with pink and green border and paisley embroidery of lehenga. Esha accessorized her look with fresh flower garland, tikka and bracelet. 
She finished off with green and yellow hoop earrings, gold necklace and bangles. 



Hema Malini wore a Neeta Lulla sari in a soft yellow and green hue. She accessorized with fresh flower jewelry matching Esha's. A perfect summer chic look combined with her million watt smile.
Sister Aahana Deol wore an orange chiffon anarkali dress accented with ethnic embroidery on sleeves, neck and hem. 







The groom wore a Simone Khambatta ensemble which echoed the colors of Esha's lehenga and mehendi - brown linen Nehru jacket atop a yellow linen kurta. 
He paired it with linen pants matching the color of the jacket and open toe sandals.

Valentino Resort 2013 Collection

What a difference a few months makes�and they must have been especially good ones for Pier Paolo Piccioli and Maria Grazia Chiuri.
While the duo delved deep into sleek black with a folksy bent for fall, Valentino�s resort finds them in a whole new headspace and a much, much brighter state of mind.
The collection is bursting with pink and lace, pretty beading, and overt expressions of joie de vivre in a nearly breathless celebration of fashion�s whole candy shop of sweet embellishments.











That kind of optimistic exuberance was a hallmark of the haute sixties, of course, and the designers looked to the era to provide a through-line for their perfect party dresses in demure silhouettes. 
Mrs. Betty Draper would have looked great in a grand tutti-fruitti number, while Mrs. Megan Draper might go for one of the duo�s more modish animal prints. 
But don�t take that the wrong way; it wasn�t a retro fest, either. There was real-world appeal in gentle sun-faded florals, in airy peplum tops paired with slim trousers, and in a flock of minutely bead-encrusted short lace dresses.

The midriff baring brocade blouse was accented with crystal work on neck, cap sleeves and hem. A matching colored embellished net dupatta completed her ensemble. 






The burnt Orange lehenga with a hint of emerald green was a perfect blend of bright and deep red hues, and was embellished with exquisite Gota work. 



She paired it with an Intricate brocade embroidered blouse. According to Rocky S, his goal was high octane glamor befitting his young and vivacious client and friend, while staying true to the sensibilities embodied in the traditional Indian attire.
