The celebrity quotient on Day 2 of the IIJW 2011 was much lower than what one was a witness to on the first day.
If Bipasha Basu, Riya Sen and Soha Ali Khan were the big names who made their presence felt on Day 1, the second day had only Hema Malini from the big league.
However, newbie actress Zarine Khan made a lovely statement in a black gown by Lascelles Symons as she walked the ramp for Johara.
Earlier in the day, the recent winners of Sushmita Sen’s I Am She contest were the show-stoppers for Golecha Jewels. Dressed in jeweled gowns by Arachana Kochhar, the trio of Vasuki Sunkavalli, Parul Duggal and Tanvi Singla, were all smiles as they posed and preened for the shutter-bugs.
But the evening belonged to the sugary-sweet Kalki Koechlin who walked the finale for Kays Jewels. Dressed in a white Indian ensemble, Kalki did a jig as she walked down the ramp. And if that was not enough, she encouraged all the other models to join her in doing some jhatkas and matkas on stage.
Some other well-known faces spotted at the shows were celebrity hairstylist Sylvie Rodgers from Delhi, singer Nitin Mukesh and child actor Darsheel Safary.
