» Last year, it was the tuk-tuk dress for the Miss Universe contest, hailed as innovative and also raising eyebrows for its curious design. This year, the original idea for the national costume to be worn by our beauty queen at the Mrs Universe pageant caused giggles rather than uproar: a Suwanna Chedi dress, or imagine our contestant wearing a golden pagoda on her body. The organiser decided to scrap it after much public ridicule, and on Monday unveiled a new design based on pla tapien, or a tropical carp-like fish.

» Very little squealing went down at this year's Bangkok Comic Con -- at least from yours truly. The massive geeky gig last weekend, now in its third year, was again hosted at BITEC this past weekend, although this year by True Visions and not the old co-host, BEC Tero. If you missed it, you didn't miss very much, as the smaller, local booths (distributors of books, DVDs, merchandise) that did not join BCC made for a pretty dull affair.

» As a sanctuary for designers, Zen Department Store is a place where shoppers are spoiled for choices -- a few too many choices, to be honest. And although it's not the biggest brands that pack Zen, don't let the newer names dampen your interest. Some of these brands do prove to be more than just a rich girl's hobby and are definitely worth keeping an eye on. Following the Bangkok Fashion Runway to welcome the summer season, we hand-pick the best of the bunch that were presented at CentralWorld.

» Florals? For spring? Groundbreaking. And we really do mean it, unlike when Miranda Priestly said those very words rather snidely in The Devil Wears Prada.

» This is definitely a big hooray for the financially-challenged. Clothing giant Uniqlo's bread and butter of Lifewear, is redefined through a designer lens, with a couple of collections offering distinct characteristics that suit different lifestyles this season. These pieces continue to be functional, but look a lot more fashion-conscious by enlisting big and influential names from the stylish circle to work their sartorial magic.

» Yes. Finally an Akshay Kumar movie that you really cannot afford to miss. Loosely based on a true story almost lost in the sands of time that went by largely unreported, Airlift brings to life that believable kind of heroism only classics like Schindler's List have artfully managed to depict. Regardless of how true to historical details the movie is, its story of Indian refugees trapped in Kuwait after Saddam Hussein's troops attacked the country in 1990 packs an unforgettable punch.
