Mag Rack: Freida Pinto Covers Flaunt Magazine for July 2012

Fabulous Freida

Proving once and for all in a pictorial for US Flaunt July 2012 that there is more to her than just playing the damsel-in-distress with the exotic looks. These photos bring to mind the blaxploitation era heroines portrayed by actress by Pam Grier in the 1970s, a no-nonsense crime-fighting sexy woman who was not to be messed around with. Well done Freida! This was totally unexpected. I hope this helps people see her in a different light and that we get to see her in more diverse roles from here on.

Freida Fabulous

Freida Pinto in Atelier Versace on Day 2 of Cannes 2012

Freida Pinto in Atelier Versace on Day 2 of Cannes 2012

My panel insist that most of the shots of Ms. Pinto from the ‘Rust & Bone’ premiere at Cannes last evening were taken of the actress in mid-stride. I have my reservations for that leg awkwardly sticking out like that a la Angelina Jolie at this year’s Oscars but let’s talk about how amazing Freida looks in this lime-yellow thigh-high slit dress instead. How wonderfully does the bright fabric off-set her naturally sun-kissed complexion? I don’t care much for the shoes, the clutch (which looks like Jimmy Choo) is awesome and considering how stunning she looked in a noir Versace (her second choice of attire from Day 1) it’s no wonder she opted for the same designer on Day 2. The less said about her Michael Angel, the better.

Freida Pinto Redeems herself in Versace

Freida Pinto Redeems herself in Versace

After a less than flattering red carpet debut in a flowery Michael Angel number on Day 1 of the 2012 Cannes Film Festival, Ms. Pinto was spotted in a sequin noir Versace thigh-high-slit dress at an after-party later that night. I would have preffered if she played up this look with lighter hued shoes and clutch but she looks stunning nevertheless.

Sonam Kapoor & Freida Pinto Take Paris by Storm in Chanel at the Grand Palais Chanel Paris-Bombay Show

BOLLYWOOD OR BUST

Okay, so technically Freida Pinto is not a Bollywood actress but that has never stopped the media from pegging her as a one despite the fact that she has never appeared in a Bollywood film thus far, so I’m just going to jump on that bandwagon for the sake of this post. I would be more politically correct and say “Indian Actress” but that does not rhyme with my catch phrase. 

More importantly, just how tall is Sonam Kapoor? Just look at how she towers  above Freida Pinto like a supermodel. Even in what looks like at least three or four-inch heels on Pinto.

Both Pinto and Kapoor were beautifully draped in Chanel at the Paris-Bombay show by Chanel in Paris on Tuesday night, each woman sporting a design from the Spring 2012 Collection.

Gorgeous!

Cannes Film Festival 2011 Day 9 – Fashion for a Cause – amFAR Gala

DEFINITIVE STYLE

WHO: Gwen Stefani, Janet Jackson, Courtney Love, Rosario Dawson, Doutzen Kroes, Michelle Rodriguez, Freida Pinto et.al.

WHAT: amFAR Gala 2011 – Cinema Against AIDS

WHEN: MAY 19TH, 2011

WHERE: CANNES, FRANCE

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

Fashionwidget’s Verdict: Models versus Actresses versus Singers versus Designers, every single one of them showed up with their fashionista game face on. We Especially loved the colourful statements made by Doutzen Kroes and Janet Jackson in a two-tone Haider Ackmermann dress. The fashion was simply stellar on the amFAR red carpet this year as expected.  We loved the Jean Fares, the Chanel(s) and the Givenchy Couture(s), we also cherished looks from L.A.M.B (Gwen Stefani was a showstopper in her black halter ensemble) and Atelier Versace. It is with sincere hope that we wonder if it was as much fun for all these divas to strut in their latest designer threads for a worthy cause as it was for us to watch and offer our opinions. We also hope some serious money was raised to benefit AIDS research. For more information about the American Foundation for AIDS Research (amFAR ) and how you can volunteer/donate/spread the word please follow the link(s) as listed below.
