The spate of wardrobe malfunctions at the Lakhme Fashion Week seem to have got Mumbai's moral brigade all hot under the collar.
Here's an excerpt from a report in this morning's Hindustan Times:
'Repeated wardrobe malfunctions at Lakme Fashion Week (LFW) have cheesed off the Mumbai police. In fact, the police’s Social Service Branch isn’t even sure they were 'malfunctions.' So, they're going to ask LFW organisers to clarify whether Carol Gracias' dress falling off and Gauhar Khan's skirt coming apart were mere accidents or deliberate publicity stunts.
DCP (Enforcement) Sanjay Aparanti, who heads the special branch entrusted with the upkeep of public morals and women’s is sues, says the incidents are 'wrong, unethical and immoral.' That's a lot of adjectives. But he has more: 'This is derogatory to the morality of every woman and society at large.' Speaking to HT on Friday, Aparanti said LFW organisers should have been extra careful after the first 'malfunction' on Wednesday,' the paper reports.
I would love to be a fly on the wall when Mr Apranti seeks clarifications from the organisers.
Just who are these guys? Why don't they crawl back into their caves?
