Fashion police: The queen of dullness

Indian actor and model Payal Rohatgi was dressed horribly at an art exhibition in Mumbai last week.

It seems like Payal took her inspiration from the military’s grey-green camouflaged uniforms.

Indian actor and model Payal Rohatgi was dressed horribly at an art exhibition in Mumbai last week.

With the colour-combo she sported so boldly, it seems like Payal took her inspiration from the military’s grey-green camouflaged uniforms. Sorry — there are no points for this GI Jane!

The charge sheet

Hair

A ponytail is necessary if you go out with oily hair. Payal must have forgotten how greasy and flat her hair looked since she let it all down. Please also note: cut those split-ends if you can’t curl them in.

Make-up

Payal used a shade of foundation lighter than her original skin tone and that concealer is not doing wonders for her dark circles either. We would have loved the lip-shade on her voluptuous lips only if it wasn’t smeared.

Accessories

Thank you Payal for giving us something fun to look at. The multi-bead necklace looks good, but sadly it didn’t bring out her outfit in any way. While we love her Louis Vuitton checkered bag, her pose makes it seem like she is in a low-budget LV ad.

Outfit

The actor made her Bollywood debut with film Yeh Kya Ho Raha Hai? Something we would also like to ask after seeing her outfit. The army green knee-length dress combined with brown accessories, just doesn’t work too well.

Shoes


Payal’s vintage leather boots are surely classy, but did nothing for her look. A better choice would have been black boots or red sandals to pair up with that necklace. It’s always wise to get a friend’s check-mark before you step out!

Bail out!

Victoria Beckham



Last year, Victoria showed up at the Great British film reception wearing her own design. She complimented her military green dress with a thin two-time wrap around belt and black high-leather peep-toe boots. We loved the singer-turned-designer’s sleek and sexy look.

Eva Longoria



Actor Eva looked stunning in an Emilio Pucci Viscose Lace on Nappa Leather dress at the second annual Sean Penn and Friends Help Haiti Home Gala in January. Her side hair-do and over-the-top make-up made her look even sexier than she already is.

Scarlett Johansson



Hollywood actor Scarlett graced her presence at Moet and Chandon’s 250 anniversary party in Moscow wearing a military green peplum dress. Though we would have loved some bracelets around her wrists, Scarlett charmed us even without them.
