Deepika Padukone had one major release this year – Cocktail. The lithe actress also appeared on every major fashion magazine cover, proving her IT girl status. Along the way, she’s given us plenty of looks to lust over. Check out my top 5 Deepika looks of 2012 – and seriously it was tough to whittle it down to just 5!

1) In Abu-Sandeep

This outfit is blingy and makes no apologies for it. Ms Padukone was the cynosure of all eyes at the party hosted by Mukesh & Nita Ambani for designers Abu-Sandeep thanks to her shiny anarkali.

2) In Dolce & Gabbana

It was a strapless gown with a gold sequinned skirt from Dolce & Gabbana at the Vogue Beauty Awards. Glamazon alert!

3) In Céline

It was a free-flowing maxi from Indian designer Saloni for the Garnier BB cream launch. The halter-neck gives her a great statuesque look.

5) In Naeem Khan

Making a statement on the red carpet of the BIG Awards with this bold print Naeem Khan gown. Ms Padukone sure is a risk taker!
