Mallika Sherawat managed an invite to the high profile LA premiere of Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds, but she had an unusual way of showing gratitude for it. Like all red carpets, this too was an event where what a celeb is wearing is of utmost signifcance, and therefore it is unfortunate that Mallika decided to appear in a strange creation of sheer, and velvet and show a lot of skin.The fashion circle is abuzz with comment on this faux pas. Designer Gaurav Gupta said, “You can’t expect anything spophisticated out of Mallika. I thought the velvet shorts were tasteless…as was the gown.
On the other hand, as always, there are some words of support for Mallika’s boldness. Designer Nikhil Mehra said, “I salute the fact that she manages to always grab more attention even if it by her style choices. It seems the outrage has reached Mallika already and she is regretting her couture choice. Her latest post on Twitter reads, “Big day 2morro! LA City Hall. History will b made:) You’ll b happy 2 know I’m wearing a suit! Dolce n Gabbana, of course.
As chirpy as this tweet sounds, it belies her regret over the decision she announced a few days ago, when she wrote, “Ques of the day: What shud I wear 2 the Tarantino premiere 2nite? Wud sssomething ssscandalous B appropriate?”
