Posh Refuses to Wear a Sari for Elizabeth Hurley's Wedding

Victoria Beckham Won't Wear Sari For Elizabeth Hurley Wedding
By Staff


Victoria Beckham is reportedly refusing to follow Elizabeth Hurley's Indian dress code for her upcoming wedding.

The former Spice Girl, who prides herself on her sense of style, was horrified when she received Liz's invitation instructing female guests to wear traditional pink saris, and has vowed to ignore the request.

A source was quoted in Britain's Daily Star newspaper as saying: "The thought of arriving in India and picking an outfit doesn't appeal to Victoria. She's a planner. What if there's nothing she likes?



"Her style icon status is her stock in trade and pink just isn't her colour." Model Liz and her fiancé Indian business tycoon Arun Nayer, who are expected to marry in March, sent guests copies of their dress code earlier this month.

The nuptials will begin with an English ceremony in the Cotswolds, followed by a traditional Indian ceremony in Mumbai.

Stylish Liz wants her guests to look "glamorous and fabulous" in traditional Indian dress.

Men have been asked to wear Indian tunics and turbans.

A shop will be specially set-up for guests to buy their clothes when they arrive at their hotel in Mumbai

Sheesh! It's one thing for a star to request saris, but PINK saris? I would wear it anyday but I think that Liz should have had some alternative colours.

Saris are so gorgeous..but i've only seen a handful that use pink well. I'm personally a huge fan of saris in earth muted colours with a splash of vibrant green, yellow, gold etc. Pink to me is just....a nono.

this is soo silly but nothing that suprises me...
we have a "theme" party in our family at least once a year. this year my brother is celebrating a "carnival extravaganza" (think brazil) and everyone literally gets into the mood by dressing up.. and yeah the guests are all in a "better league" (dare i say) than miss posh! honestly what is she thinking? its a wedding and it happens to be in india: wear the Sari or look stupid (once again)

THat's so like Posh. C'mon, it's Liz's day so she can come up with any crazy ideas.

Though I don't think saris will look good on skinny Posh hehe

I'm sure it's more about Posh wanting to find something totally different in order to upstage Hurley.

Ugh! Why would you want to have Posh at your wedding (Sari or no Sari!) !?

I highly doubt that Victoria Beckham is a true friend to anyone (not even herself)...

Question to the Brits on the boards:

Do you have any celebs that can hold a tacky-free wedding? Any at all?

It's not that ridiculous a request; she's being traditional.
I hope she doesn't left Posh come, if she doesn't agree to wear it.

While bling and furs are kind of mandatory, The Queen is generally thought to throw a tasteful wedding bash. Not to mention her own, the show they put on for Charlie and Di was kind of famous at the time...

^ True... I do so love royal weddings.
Back on topic- she should just wear it. Everyone will know she did it for a wedding. She should just get over herself!
