PIX: Minissha Lamba's stunning avatars

Minissha Lamba is a great dresser.

The actress can pull off a bikini as smoothly as an evening gown, or just a casual tee-shirt and jeans.

We decided to quiz her about her style file, and Minissha, whose film Hum Tum Shabana releases this Friday, listed some of her most stunning looks. She takes us through them:

The bikini

An earlier cover for Man's World carried a great surfer chick look.

I am a full on water baby and it gave me immense pleasure to create statement moments. The focus here is not being a 'bikini babe' but promoting the culture of sun, sand 'n' surf.

My first Cannes appearence was very special. The look had to be reflective of my personal style, which is understated and classic.

This beautiful gown by designers Gauri and Nainika Karan was just that. 

White is a colour I strongly indentify with (or at least the colour I get the most compliments for).

This simple white structured FCUK dress was what I felt would go perfectly well for the premiere of Dabangg. A soft look for a very macho film!

I love this sari designed by Renu Tandon. It's different from anything I've worn before.

The perfect blend of demureness that comes with the long sleeves and sensuality which is the signature of a sari. The funky print and youthful pink make it interesting too.

This sari, by A D Singh, is more glamorous than the previous one. With a style and cut that is slim and efficient to manage for a modern day affair, the gold off set in blue gives it that perfect red carpet glam.
