THE GHaGHras

LATEST | Ghaghras

Lehenga or Ghagra is a form of skirt which is long, embroidered and pleated. It is worn as the bottom portion of a choli. It is secured at the waist and leaves the lower back and midriff bare.

The Ghaghras are made of a number of fabrics such as Silk, Cotton, Khadi,Georgette, Crape, Net, Satin, Brocade and Chiffon.Even though designers have successfully used the various kinds of fabrics for making the lehenga, silk is still the most preferred fabric.

Festive attire 

The lehenga choli is the favourite female apparel worn during festivals, weddings or special events in India. This is due to traditions as well as of the fact that it is available in a number of fabrics with many different decorative choices.Traditionally the sari and the lehenga choli are the most popular garments for the bride in India.But it is a common bridal attire mostly in North India.It is the traditional wear of Garba ( most famous festival of Gujarat).

Decorative stitching 

Apart from the fabric, decorative stitching patterns also play a role. Lehengas come with a wide variety of decoration and embroidery work like Gota, Phulkari,Shisha, Chikankari, Zari, Zardozi, Nakshi, Kundan, etc. For festivals like Navratri, the ethnic Shisha embroidery is popular with a bit of patchwork. For formal wear and weddings, the embroidery is heavier in pearls, silk, sequins and zari.

Kutch embroidery is an evolving expression of the craft and textile traditions of the Rabaris, a nomadic tribe in Gujarat.Kutch work is unique in the sense that a net is woven on a cloth using thread.The net is then filled in using the same thread by intricate interlocking stitches. The patterns are usually built around geometric shapes.This embroidery follows its own traditional design logic and juxtaposition of colours and motifs.The Rohanas tribals of Kutch specialise in skirt work. The Sodhas use a geometric style for their embroidery. The Garacia Jats are experts in tiny embroidery on the yoke, which intermingles with red, orange, blue and green threads. The Dhanetah Jats love embroidering broad pear-shaped mirrors using orange, black, yellow and red in chain stitch.

LEGENDARY CARS OF FURIOUS 6

Those Cars without Which Furious 6 Was Not-possible 

The truth is, that the cars are one of the  vital part of status and fashion don't start as anything sacred. In fact, many of them are the same miserable rustbuckets you've run away from after answering a Craigslist ad.Cars that would never be fit for restoration, because they'll be so extensively modified for their excellent performance and use.

Here's an incredible thing I learned from the people who made  Furious 6 they used between 300 and 400 cars. Of all those cars, this intimate little group is all that's left. With those sort of numbers, it's amazing cars are still excited to land roles in these movies....

Mark I Escort: I'm not gonna lie: this one was my personal favorite. I've always loved the original Escorts, and this is just a really nicely sorted example. Seven of these little fighters were built for the movie. These little Escorts are a far cry from the boring econoboxes we got here — these are gutsy little hoonmobiles. This is one of the few cars used in the movie not to have the preferred LS3. It uses Ford's Kent engine, which we in the US enjoyed in our Pintos, where they helped outrun the balls of flame.

Dodge Challenger SRT: The new cars have less done to them, and cars from affiliated companies even less. So this one is close to stock, save for locking diffs, and a huge emergency brake handle used to get the thing sideways on demand. Dodge should just go ahead and make that a regular option.

Jensen Interceptor: As you can probably guess from this car and the Escort, part of the movie takes place in London. Each car is designed for a specific character, and this car was for a woman who is British, and also a big Mopar fan. With that in mind, what's better than an Interceptor, the British car with a Chrysler engine? Also, this character has amnesia, so I'm not sure how that works in. Probably a Lucas electrics thing.

Stock-looking BMW M5: The BMWs used in the movie are interesting because they went through 16 or 17 of them. The only real mod is welded diffs, and not all were true M5s — about half were regular 5s faked with badging. Also, it seems BMWs' traction control and driving nannies can be disabled via some liberal pruning of the fuse box, something many other cars don't allow. The BMWs aren't shown in a particularly positive light, so there was no BMW sponsorship for all those cars.

Plymouth Charger/Superbird: This Superbird is quite striking in its deep maroon paint, though it almost didn't make it in the movie. Originally pitched for the previous film, the studio felt it was too ridiculous looking and felt like a "kid's toy." Duh, that's why it's awesome, studio dipshits. Oh, and while it may actually be a Dodge Charger Daytona, everyone there just called it the "Superbird."

Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani – Is one of the wonderful movie of the year  Apart from the cute love-story and all the crazy fun that the four friends have, what we really love is the way of their dressing. 3 different looks carried off as effortlessly as possible! And, we got down to scrutinize it, so that we could help you Get The Look of the same...

Preppy Nerd Look:

What goes beyond saying is a trendy pair of wayfarers! If you have got this to carry as effortlessly as her, you’ve got half the look.

Reach out for cute jackets, trousers, bends, shoes, day dresses, denims skirts and flats, ballerinas or simple gladiator flats. You can choose to layer your dress/top with a pastel hued cardigan.

Keep your hair simple. A sleek hair band adds a girly charm to the look. Brush it straight and silky.

Don’t forget the messenger bag for the naina look .

Adventurous Traveler Look:

This look is all about being carefree yet stylish. Little details like neon gloves will make you stand apart from the rest of ‘em.

Opt for bright hued down puffer jacket, ideally the ones with a belt/cinch at the waist to maintain the curves while wearing them. We love Kalki Koechlin’s fur hooded jacket.

A pair of stressed denims goes perfectly well with a down jacket. Opt for a stretchable pair for extra comfort while travelling.

Accessorize with trendy slouchy beanies, neon coloured gloves, check mufflers and sunnies of your choice. We love Deepika’s textured framed clear glasses and Ranbir Kapoor’s reflective blue sunnies. Very hip!

Your fur clad hiking boots can be a blessing!

Sexy Siren Look:

All it takes is a sensuous saree in chiffon or Georgette. Pick up a slightly transparent one for extra dose of sexiness. Black is always a hit!

Pay extra attention while getting your blouse, shirts and pants stitched. This is gonna decide where you stand in the sexiness-meter. Go for spaghetti straps, sheer fabric, knots and more.

Red lippie, a rich wine colour also works great. After you are done with the basic steps of make-up, like primer, concealer and foundation, apply some bronzer on your cheeks. Make bronzer look sexier:
