I'm going to start with Celina Jaitly because she wears the best sarees ever. Saris is a traditional indian outfit that is draped around the whole body.

Her style is so glamorous.

Like most indian celebrities Celina doesn't dress very original or unique in western wear but i like this dress on her and it totally fits her style.

Such beautiful sarees!
Keep them coming!

This woman is beautiful, but her face is like plastic excess of make up?

[INTER]

I think this woman is grotesque, not to mention her fashion sense..

People joke that she puts on enough makeup for the whole industry. She looks very pretty when she goes for the natural look which happens once every four years.

Inter, i'm guessing you're not a fan of saris but calling someone grotesque is kinda rude. Or is that accepted here?

I like this dress on her

The problem with indian western wear is that it looks like they got it from forever 21 or a similar clubbing store but then you hear that the outfit is designed by a famous designer.

It's much too glitzy and cheap looking for me which is why i prefer pictures of saris but if anyone is curious to know what indian western wear looks like here are some pictures.

I love the use of colour, very different from western clothes.

[Fionuir]

I don't really like the Western wear, it's a bit too glitzy and cheap looking for me. I love the saris, though The colours are amazing.

Same here, I love the saris, but that Bollywood stars style is tacky and eighties, with that loads of old fashioned make up, the blue contacts and big glitzy jewels. Yes, cheap looking.

Well, I'm Indian, and I partly agree with you, but it's a bit harsh to call it tacky and eighties. You know, a lot of the styles here in America are very similar to styles in India..almost as if they were derived from India. For example, the chunky jewelry people are wearing here in America came from India first, and you can actually get better jewelry in India for much less money. Also, all the long skirts people are wearing here are similar to the ones in India.

I don't think that INTER meant to offend any Indian nor Indian style. Many things that are now popular in the West originated from Asia and Eastern countries. But that doesn't make East better than West, nor it is worse.
I've never been to India, but I'm pretty sure there are many well dressed (in Western clothes) Indian girls outta there. But I think it's hard to deny that Bollywood Western fashion (at least on this example) is tacky and cheap looking.
