Bipasha Basu’s stunning looks
In the pictures posted by Elle, Bipasha is seen wearing two looks and serving goddess energy in both. The first look shows her in a black mermaid-cut corset gown and a sheer fringe stole, both by Rocky Star.
She styled the ensemble with cascade tassel earrings and a white enamel geometric ring. With her tresses left loose, in a centre parting, and cascading down her back, she chose mascara-adorned lashes, a glossy pink lip gloss, and a soft makeup base for the glam look.
The second look featured Bipasha in a custom maxi dress by Picante. It features voluminous sleeves with slits baring her arms, a collared neckline, a flared hem creating a train, and a figure-skimming silhouette. She styled the gown with vintage Chanel turquoise stone earrings and a natural Tibetan turquoise choker.
