Best Off Screen Fashion Looks of Deepika Padukone
By Nidhal
Tinseltown stood testimony to the launch of Mr. Prakash Padukone’s daughter opposite SRK. It was the perfect launch vehicle. Renowned star, commercial film, huge budget, exotic and fancy locales, elaborate song and dance sequences, reincarnation saga, avenging the death of the love of one’s life by battering the antagonist black and blue, a song sequence entailing almost the entire B-town and aggressive promotions… Om Shanti Om (2007) was an ideal Launchpad for the lady.
To top it all, the movie was clashing with Sanjay Leela Bhansaali’s Sawariya which starred two star kids. So, the competition had some teeth in it too. The release date arrived. The box office stated its verdict. OSO thrashed Sawariya point blank and the leading lady of the former became an overnight sensation. Despite bagging almost all the Best Female Debut awards that year, her acting skills were limited and were panned by critics for long. With time, she upped her game, took things in her stride and today, she is no longer just Prakash Padukone’s daughter. She is Deepika Padukone
With humongous commercial successes like Chennai Express, Race 2 and YJHD in her kitty and an award-winning performance in Piku, this dimpled lady has set the bar high now. As far as her styling is concerned, it has evolved over the years and how! Almost everything she donnes has Fashionistas sit up and take notice. With a towering frame, heart-warming smile, almond-shaped eyes, drool- worthy physique and effortless sense of style, Deepika has no doubt become a sure-shot head- turner 🙂 On that note, let’s have a look at the BEST OFF-SCREEN AVATARS OF DEEPIKA PADUKONE THAT LEFT US DROOLING.
1. IN FENDI- Looking as fresh as a daisy, Ms. Padukone attended a promotional event for Bajirao Mastani in Delhi wearing Fendi separates with Zanotti ankle-strap sandals. With her luscious locks let loose and radiant skin, this look was easy, fun, casual and trendy.
2. UNVEILING THE DEEWANI-MASTANI SONG- Swaddled in a Tarun Tahiliani long kurta skirt look with relatively simple kundan earrings in Jaipur while unveiling the ‘Deewani Mastani’ song from her then, impending movie- Bajirao Mastani, Deepika looked a million bucks as she finished out the look with a matching lip shade and chic hairdo.
3. LET’S GO BLING- For another promotional event for Bajirao Mastani, Deepika opted for a monochrome striped blouse with a gold sequined pencil skirt. A studded belt from ASOS and cage sandals rounded her look out. To top it all, her poker straight hair looked chic and upped her glam quotient by leaps and bounds.
4. A LITTLE MORE BLING NEVER HURTS- Taking the bling look ahead, Deepika donned a pair of ripped bling jeans with a casual sweatshirt for the least leg of promotions of Bajirao Mastani. With her hair tied in a ponytail and s pair of heels, she sashayed as the shutterbugs tried to get a glimpse of this leggy lass. This look is apt for parties if you wish to break free from the monotony of one-piece dresses 🙂
5. GOING CASUAL WITH TUNICS- Keeping it casual and comfy during the Pune promotional tour of Bajirao Mastani, Deepika breezed through the scorching heat in a casual light grey tunic with distressed white pants, gold-tone jewelry,a brown belt, and animal-print ballerinas. It looks comfy and would make for an ideal pick for a casual day out with friends when the Sun is leaving no stone unturned to toast you
6. WITH TRIBAL JEWELLERY- Deepika gives one major fashion goals with this ochre Mango shift dress paired with a fringed Stradivarius vest that she donned for the promotions of Tamasha. The tribal jewellery is the perfect finishing touch.
7. IN MICHAEL KORS- The leading lady of Tamasha defines the art of chic dressing as she opts for a midi-length Michael Kors dress with Steve Madden heels. Add to that, her fresh as a daisy skin tone and you are sure to be smitten, aren’t you?
