It's a 60's western hairstyle ....And I do like her gown a lot/....And no one in Cannes found her wierd LOL....Indian fashion standards isn't the world's.....*meditation*......At least she doesn't wear FLASHY colors at an international event like some others...which is for western people very ugly ....Of course - no one is forced to have the same standards as western people....But I remember american friends of mine who laughed at Vidya Balan's outfit when receiving her FF award....because for them it was a faux pas to wear different texture/color stuck together.....She was a disaster for them - but for most IF members she was gorgeous...It has to do with standards..yours isn't the world's...and the world's don't mean / don't have to be imposed to you....And plz do believe me when I SAY people found her really stunning in that dress and hairstyle..I like it cause she had the elegance and the class of an arab mare...her hair looked like a proud mane....It's called fashion..it's non conventional and creates debate...--- To see wierder outfits - watch Jean-Paul Gaultier & John Galliano designs...To see shocking outfits - JLO at the Grammy Awards with the Versace Dress....Milla Jovovich at Cannes to present the 5th element --yeah there's a world beyond saris and anarkali.....and yeah it's called fashion....no need to like it --- but just know it is fashion ..it doesn't mean to please the traditional indian in laws from Kerala or conventional bangali or punjabi families...Our very own Marilyn MONROE --- Brigitte Bardot in France - take a dekho at her hairstyle - she 's a 60's and 70's a sex symbol (she helped Cannes to become so popular and other starlets like her did also)She starred in "And God created woman"...hence perhaps Aish's hairstyle..the hairdresser couldn't possibly do this without thinking of BB..at least it is the reference that comes up to my mind...
You know what Lily even I didnt like the look but all the papers in UK have called Ash's look 'stunning'.
I guess people have different taste and different expectations and standards when it comes to fashion.
