Max-imum Mallika

Minutes after walking out of New York Fashion Week hand-in-hand with designer Max Azria, Mallika Sherawat told DNA from NY that the famed designer will be crafting her outfits.

For the uninitiated, Max’s fashion house BCBG MaxAzria is considered one of the most sough-after fashion houses in the world and his various labels are patronized by top Hollywood actresses like Angelina Jolie (see box).

“It was lovely meeting Max at the New York Fashion Week. It was him who had invited me. He paid me so many compliments and then said that he wants to design for me,” says Mallika.

But apart from designing for her, Max is also keen to induct her as the Indian face of his fashion house. Sources revealed that Max has asked Mallika to walk the ramp for him for his upcoming show in Paris which the actress has readily accepted and has instructed her agents to work out the dates.

Confirms Mallika, “It will be an honour for me to represent such a talented designer who has dressed all the top Hollywood stars. Regarding walking the ramp for him, it’s still a work in progress.” Mallika and Max are set to have a meeting about the deal which might also see Mallika in print ads for the fashion house which would be published in leading fashion magazines.
