Timeless Beauty On Vogue

Her beauty looks timeless on the Vogue cover, July edition. That’s why Deepika Padukone ’s cosmopolitan yet Indian looks make her the most sought-after belle for the covers of celebrated fashion magazines.

And here she is again in a different avatar. Deepika has worn Dolce Gabbana spring 2009 collection gown with white flower embellishments all over it, making the costume this “seasons’s most romantic dress”. Deepika’s 1940s classic hair-do and make-up will not make us forget that vintage is in vogue. She carries this retro look with elegance and panache.

But another similar Dolce Gabbana dress was last seen on Diana Penty, the brand ambassador of Maybelline, on L’Officiel March 2009 edition cover, making the Vogue one common. This is not the first instance of such similarity. It seems magazines are really running short of outfits.

Getting back to Deepika, in one of the stills she is seen in an Alberta Ferretti black silk dress posing with an antique comb and adding to the retro feel of the mag’s photo shoot. Inside the issue Padukone reveals how she starts her day, and, needless to say, also about boyfriend Ranbir Kapoor .

Like any other actress, Deepika doesn’t start her day with a glass of water but “a maaaajor breakfast” which she calls “very South Indian”. And when she discusses Bollywood with Ranbir, the duo don’t crib or carp about anyone. Putting “anyone down” is not in her nature, says Deepika
