Fashionistas may come and go but there's one woman who has literally stood the test of time--Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. She might not be as actively involved in the show business as she was earlier, but that hasn't tainted our admiration for the gorgeous lady.
Lately, Aishwarya's on-screen presence has been numbered. However, her reign over the world of fashion continues, through her impeccable appearances at prestigious events abroad and those back home.
As a classic example of the actress' power play with fabrics, stands her latest look, in an ensemble that left us gasping for breath.
Recently, Aishwarya was spotted at the Ambani's dinner party, in a golden-yellow, strapless gown by Alexis Mabille that she pulled off with her customary dash of oomph.
The overall look of the gown is striking enough in itself, even before one peers at the details of the clothing.
To begin with, the pleated, A-line gown allowed the actress to flaunt her figure. The sweetheart-neckline, on the other hand, revealed her cleavage.
What made the gown look extraordinary were the quirky additions on the bodice. Apart from the broad pleats, the gown boasted of a prominent, trench coat-like layer, with buttons and a pair of pockets too.
The only embellishment that seemed unnecessary for the gown, was the belt, an addition to the look that could not really stand out.
Aishwarya kept her look classy by pairing her attire with a green, box clutch by Louboutin World and a pair of stud earrings. She sported her hair in loose curls and completed the look with minimal makeup.
