Deepika Padukone in a statuesque “sari” gown
This is one of those artistic compositions that looks flawless from every angle. Deepika sports a sculpted Grecian look in an asymmetric off one shoulder gown which has an additional piece wrapped to look like the pallu of a sari.
The accessories are perfectly balanced from the metal pearl drop earrings, to the brooch perched on the right side, to the chain belt and the metallic cloisonne look purse. A cascading striped scarf on the left side adds a touch of whimsy, as do the oversized finger rings.

A blue saree to take your blues away
Sort of reminds me of Web 2.0, gradient color scheme that is in fashion all around us.
The key parameters of a good gradient saree works are the starting color, end color and how fast the gradient change. This one might have additional complexity because it might be a double color saree.
The model looks nice in it, but I would hesitate in designing a saree like this. The gradient adds certain directionality to the clothing and that’s not always a welcome thing.
