Here’s my first look at Fashion Week as promised! I went for the 5:00pm Anita Dongre bridal collection show on Friday pleasantly surprised at how trendy and chic all the clothes were. (I also really liked the starry-eyed make up on the girls, must try that some time!) But I’m guessing you’re probably getting more than enough of that, so here’s a peak at all the lobby action between shows where the models hang, drink wine, smoke cigarettes (and refuse to pose face-first pre-makeup!)

Psst! Anita Dongre’s celebrity front bench consisted of Sanjay Suri (who I twittered about), Urmila Matondkar (looking super slim) and Marc Robinson who’s the choreographer-in-chief for Lakme Fashion Week this September.
