As her close friend, model Pia Trivedi is getting married this week, actress Esha Deol got a couple of gowns especially made from her other good friend, designer Amy Billimoria.

Says Amy, “Esha basically wanted a body fit gown and so, I designed this georgette one-shoulder gown with a deep slit in front. It has zigzag embroidery in gold sequins. The other gown I’ve designed for her is in black with a flare at the bottom. Both the outfits are very red-carpet, in accordance with the silhouette she wanted for the occasion.”

Amy tells us a couple of things about Esha’s fashion sense and what it is like to dress her up:
