Give us your take on these famous faces' fashionable (and not-so-fashionable) choices!
It's the season to step out in style and our celebrity brigade has been doing just that, appearing at every social do and red carpet event that matters.
Some are simply sizzling and others fizzle bigtime -- tell us what you think of each by taking the poll at the bottom of each page!
We start off with Deepika Padukone, who 's likely to drive women the same shade of green with envy when they set eyes on her -- isn't she stunning in this backless beauty?
Dash of colour

Next we have Priyanka Chopra, whose becoming, multi-hued maxi complements her fresh-faced appearance and glossy hair no end.
Leggy lass

Bipasha Basu shows off her pins in black leggings and a houndstooth jacket -- very on-trend!
Teen spirit
Image: Shah Rukh KhanPhotographs: Pradeep Bandekar
Hmmm. Looks like Shah Rukh Khan is nurturing his inner teenager in a sweatshirt, jeans and sneakers. Do you think he carries this look well, or should he dress his age?
Blue belle
Image: Gauri KhanPhotographs: Pradeep Bandekar
Well, at least SRK is experimenting with his wardrobe -- wish the missus would do the same! Gauri Khan steps out in a nice enough dress and sandals, but her overall look is sooo done-to-death and predictable!
Strapless stunner
Image: AsinPhotographs: Pradeep Bandekar
Southern siren Asin channels old Hollywood glamour in this strapless ensemble -- and it pays off bigtime! From the dress to her ruby-red lips and cascading curls, she looks perfect.
Couple capers
Image: Arjun and Mehr RampalPhotographs: Pradeep Bandekar
It would seem that Mehr and Arjun Rampal prefer to go the coordinated styling route -- they're both dressed-down in black. Of course, they're both gorgeous enough to pull off practically anything, but we think Arjun's ripped jeans are a bit much!
Shine on

Maybe the Rampals should give Yash Birla a lesson or two in dressing down.
Aw, who are we kidding? He'll never give up those man-cleavage baring tees and glittery gold-tinged jeans! Groan!
Citrus chic

Shazahn Padamsee showed up at an awards function recently looking lovely in this floor-sweeping citrus number.
Glitter gal
Image: Sonakshi SinhaPhotographs: Pradeep Bandekar
Sonakshi Sinha committed a faux pas recently by teaming a glittery jacket with a glittery dress -- either one should have been devoid of the sequins. And her shoes are rather boring too.
Ethnic elegance
Image: Dia MirzaPhotographs: Pradeep Bandekar
We're yet to find fault with anything the pretty Dia Mirza puts on! Here, she's ravishing in an ivory-gold ethnic outfit.
Dia, if your career as an actress doesn't go places, as a stylist it certainly will!
Cool dude
Image: Hrithik RoshanPhotographs: Pradeep Bandekar
Swoon! Hrithik Roshan is a hottie and anything he puts on -- even if it's as casual as this baseball cap, jacket and dip-dye tee -- is amazingly transformed.
Hotstepper
Image: Natasha PoonawalaPhotographs: Pradeep Bandekar
Natasha Poonawala is quite the fashionista and we get everything from her fab peep-toe boots to the chunky neckpiece and haute jacket. What we can't figure out is whether that's a bag tucked under her arm or a pet pooch!
On different tangents
Image: Prateik and Amy JacksonPhotographs: Pradeep Bandekar
Prateik and the lovely Amy Jackson make a cute couple. But here, while he goes for a casual, edgy vibe in checkered pants and unlaced shoes, she's cocktail-ready. Hardly looks like they're attending the same event!
Classic and low-key
Image: Lisa HaydonPhotographs: Courtesy Tandem Communications
Catwalk queen Lisa Haydon shows that you don't always have to flash the flesh in an LBD and blouse casually knotted on over it. Simple, classy, all-black -- can't go wrong!
White sight
Image: Rohit BalPhotographs: Pradeep Bandekar
At the other end of the spectrum we have designer Rohit Bal, an unabashed fan of all-white. And he does cut a rather suave, well-dressed figure in this get-up!
Coral couture
Image: Ameesha PatelPhotographs: Pradeep Bandekar
Finally! Ameesha Patel in clothes we can compliment! The coral gown is flattering and feminine, her makeup isn't overboard and the accessories make for the right touch. Keep it up!
Brit fan
Image: Kangna RanautPhotographs: Pradeep Bandekar
We get it, Kangna Ranaut -- you've recently returned from London. But did you really need to emphasise that with a Union Jack tee, polka dot cardigan and (absurd!) bowler hat?
Slick sequins
Image: Chitrangda SinghPhotographs: Pradeep Bandekar
Chitrangda Singh shows how to go the all-over sequin route in this slick number. Can't say the same for those clunky shoes, though!
Mixing it up
Image: Tusshar KapoorPhotographs: Pradeep Bandekar
Waist-up, he's spiffy semi-formal dude, waist-down he's cowboy! We don't know what Tusshar Kapoor was thinking donning these ridiculous boot-cut jeans.
Beauty and the geek
Image: Kunal Khemu and Soha Ali KhanPhotographs: Pradeep Bandekar
Well, a cute geek at any rate -- the beanie and glasses work for Kunal Khemu, while Soha Ali Khan is more sophisticated in her stockings and jacket.
Togatastic
Image: Mugdha GodsePhotographs: Pradeep Bandekar
Mugdha Godse creates an impression in this pretty toga dress -- the nicest we've seen her in awhile!
Trending
Image: Sophie ChaudharyPhotographs: Pradeep Bandekar
Like Bips, Sophie Chaudhary gets onto the houndstooth bandwagon with the panel on her cocktail number. Very well turned out, as usual.
Biker boy
Image: Zayed KhanPhotographs: Pradeep Bandekar
Zayed Khan seems to enjoy the biker look as much as he enjoys the mean machines themselves. Point is, does it work for him? Your call!
Rust-ic ravisher
Image: Anushka SharmaPhotographs: Pradeep Bandekar
Getting herself noticed in this beautiful rust-hued creation we have Anushka Sharma. What a pleasant departure from the rest of the red carpet predictables!
All smiles
Image: Raageshwari LoombaPhotographs: Pradeep Bandekar
Sigh. Another cutie falls prey to the glitter-all-over syndrome. And Raageshwari Loomba is usually so well turned out!
Futuristic funk
Image: Dipannita SharmaPhotographs: Pradeep Bandekar
Here, model Dipannita Sharma proves why she's a catwalk queen in a futuristic evening outfit that not many people could pull off.
Hand in hand
Image: Kalki and Anurag KashyapPhotographs: Pradeep Bandekar
Kalki and Anurag Kashyap are seen making a grand entrance at an awards ceremony. She's simply stunning in her black gown and we think Anurag could have worn a suit to compliment his wife!
Tried and true
Image: Karan JoharPhotographs: Pradeep Bandekar
Karan Johar is quite the power dresser, but it's time to take some fashion risks. Enough of the suits, KJo -- give one to Anurag Kashyap!
Jazz it up
Image: Sonal ChauhanPhotographs: Pradeep Bandekar
And finally we have Sonal Chauhan in her sequinned ensemble. We're conflicted on this one -- edgy or OTT? You decide!
