Neena Gupta Turns 66 In A Biscuit Bra And White Kaftan By Daughter Masaba
Veteran actor Neena Gupta has never shied away from making bold choices - whether in her professional career or personal style. And she is turning the heat up in the latest post by her daughter Masaba Gupta. On the occasion of Neena's 66th birthday, Masaba shared a post in which the Badhaai Ho actress is seen draped in a flowing white 'Rann Kaftan' and the now-viral 'Biscuit Bra'—both designed by her daughter Masaba Gupta under the House of Masaba label. She has always been a great cheerleader for her daughter's designs as well as acting career. View this post on Instagram A post shared by House of Masaba (@houseofmasaba) The Instagram post, shared jointly by House of Masaba and Neena Gupta, quickly became a hit with the fans with many calling it a "stunning look" and others saying that this look may "change the narrative of how women style themselves at any age." The outfit's striking silhouette was brought together by the Kaftan's minimalist elegance and elevated by the gold charms that adorned both the bra and the neckline. These are called the "house of charms." The look was completed with House of Masaba's signature "Pearlwind Earrings" in an 18-carat gold finish. Her makeup and hair were kept minimal allowing the ensemble to take center stage. The slicked-back hair and bold brows along with a dewy base and nude lips, complemented the outfit perfectly. Always a big cheerleader of Masaba's prowess as a designer, this collab between mother and daughter adds an emotional depth to the post.

The surprising careers of White Lotus season three's breakout stars
Parker Posey understood the assignment. Ahead of her stint on The White Lotus, the actor once dubbed the 'Indie queen' explained to The Binge Guide that she had approached her performance as society maven Victoria Ratcliff as a collection of memes. 'When I got the material [for The White Lotus], I started playing with sounds knowing it's very meme-able,' Posey says of the third instalment of Mike White's black comedy about spoiled guests staying in a luxury hotel. And so, realising 'this is a show that people may not even watch the whole thing. They'll just be like, 'Oh, that's funny' [from a clip they see online]', Posey, 56, leaned into her Southern drawl to deliver a barrage of classic lines such as 'Piper, no.' and 'I don't even have my lorazepam … I'm going to have to drink myself to sleep.' Sounding like a tortured cat performing Tennessee Williams, Posey's accent went viral, leading to a tsunami wave of influencers doing cosplay as Victoria, a Saturday Night Live skit, and even Posey's fellow co-stars doing their own impressions of it. Like The White Lotus seasons one and two standout Jennifer Coolidge, Posey is now enjoying a long overdue moment in the sun thanks to the series. Ditto 'the ladies' played by Leslie Bibb, Michelle Monaghan and Carrie Coon. When Bibb first saw the storylines the other actors were getting to play with – drug-fuelled threesomes, generational revenge plots, a planned murder/suicide in the wake of a very public financial scandal – she feared her own arc might be a bit 'boring' by comparison. But the passive-aggressive sniping between the toxic trio of well-dressed childhood friends proved to be the story that resonated most with viewers. The 51-year-old actress, best known for minor roles in big films, acknowledges that it's rare to see 'three middle-aged women all cast together' in Hollywood. 'Typically, only one of us would ever get cast,' she says of working with Monaghan, 49, and Coon, 44. And she's right. It's also fabulous getting to see Bibb – who has been treading red carpets for years on the arm of her long-time partner Sam Rockwell – finally getting the star treatment for herself. Sure, Rockwell rode on her poolside Kaftan coat-tails with his surprise White Lotus cameo, but this was still very much Bibb's show. And her performance as the Trump-voting conservative Kate (the antithesis to Rockwell's sex-addicted tourist) was just as memorable for everything that went unsaid behind those fake smiles as his uncomfortably soul-baring monologue. And that's where White – like fellow TV writing/directing/producing powerhouse Ryan Murphy – really distinguishes himself. He gives older women – so often relegated to playing the mum or sassy co-worker – an opportunity to deliver something truly memorable. And they more than rise to the challenge. So, if you're missing these complicated women, check out their back catalogue of work before we get to check in for season four of The White Lotus. The Young Unknowns: Exploring the recklessness of youth and the consequences of indulgence, this 2000 film featuring Leslie Bibb follows a spoiled guy and his friends as they navigate a day of intoxication and self-destruction. Party Girl: In this 1995 comedy-drama, Parker Posey plays a New Yorker whose life revolves around partying and bar hopping until she's forced to take a day job as a librarian, where she discovers love within the Dewey decimal system. Trucker: This 2008 drama sees Michelle Monaghan (best known as Tom Cruise's dependable love interest in the Mission: Impossible films) play a long-haul truck driver who re-evaluates her life when she regains custody of her son.
