Yesterday I wondered if Lightening would strike twice ^[1]and it did – Lakme Fashion Week had its second wardrobe malfunction. Hindustan Times has more. ^[2]

Mayank at Desicritics ^[3] has his own theories to these recurring malfuntions – it is a way to get noticed he says.

A regular feature of these fashion weeks have been wardrobe malfunctions. The Lakme India Fashion Week began on the 28th of March, and in the past three days has already seen two incidents of wardrobe malfunctions. The term “Wardrobe Malfunction” caught public attention after the Janet Jackson fiasco at the superbowl. But in the Indian context, it becomes more important.

A few years back, Negar Khan had a wardrobe malfunction on the ramp, where she got noticed by a music video maker. How, after that she went on to become the queen of music videos and item-numbers, is history. So, for any model looking to tread this path, a wardrobe malfunction is an easy way to get noticed.

Vis-a-vis has pictures from the event.
