There’s no place like the red carpet to make a style statement, with so many cameras focusing on you, colour or cut, and Bollywood’s denizens know how to avail this opportunity. Bollywood actress Katrina Kaif, who has stuck to long gowns on the red carpet, was wearing a gown time too; a bright red Marchesa. Another dramatic gown was Kalki Koechlin’s multi-hued Preeti S Kapoor which, with its long sleeves and high neck, was perfect for the chilly night. Another glittering star in the wardrobe department was debutante actress Amrita Puri. Amrita’s wardrobe in her debut film ‘Aisha’ may have been overshadowed by her co-stars Sonam Kapoor and Ira Dubey, but Amrita Puri proved that she was no wallflower with her metallic Vizyon gown.
