Sonam Kapoor has been giving fashion inspiration lately, one outfit after the other. May it be her retro look with a black gown and cage skirt at the opening ceremony of Jio MAMI Mumbai Film Festival or her current ethnic style as she turned muse for Abhinav Mishra’s collection, we are in total admiration of the diva. The actress wore a stunning mirrorwork anarkali set featuring a gorgeous embellished full-sleeved kurta with a plunging neckline which was from the designer’s Noorani collection and had their signature mirrorwork, according to the designer’s Instagram post. She carried a sheer dupatta which showcased equally heavy work and grandeur. For accessories, the actress wore a choker necklace, jhumkaa earrings, and a statement ring. Kohl-laden eyes and nude makeup were the only additions to Sonam’s flawless ethnic style.

Just recently Sonam Kapoor gave us yet another reason to fall in love with her festive wardrobe. For Durga Puja 2023 celebrations, Sonam picked a ravishing red and gold salwar kameez from the designer label Sabyasachi. The full-sleeved solid red anarkali kurta featured a broad zari border at the hemline and was teamed with a pair of red pajamas and a heavy-work dupatta with fine gold zari work on the base of red. For accessories, Sonam wore a heavy choker necklace, traditional dangler earrings, and a statement ring. Her signature minimal makeup included kohl-rimmed eyes, well-contoured cheeks, and a matte lip tint which perfectly complemented her heavy-work outfit.

The war between Israel and Hamas could trigger price shocks for raw materials such as oil and agriculture products if the conflict escalates across the Middle East, the World Bank warned in a report Monday.

Oil has already risen six percent since the latest round of fighting, sparked when Hamas operatives from Gaza entered southern Israel and killed more than 1,400 people, mostly civilians, and seized nearly 240 hostages, according to Israeli officials.

Israel has responded with an unrelenting bombardment of Gaza, which the Hamas-run health ministry says has killed more than 8,000 people, nearly half of them children.

The war between Israel and Hamas comes as Russia’s war in Ukraine has already put pressure on markets, with that war being “the biggest shock to commodity markets since the 1970s,” warned World Bank chief economist Indermit Gill.

“That had disruptive effects on the global economy that persist to this day,” Indermit Gill said in a statement.

“Policymakers will need to be vigilant. If the conflict were to escalate, the global economy would face a dual energy shock for the first time in decades” from both the war in Ukraine and conflict in the Middle East, he said.

Many potential price hikes will depend on what happens to world oil prices and exports, the World Bank said.

In an optimistic scenario, oil could rise 3-13 percent, between $93 and $102 per barrel.

A median scenario envisages prices rising up to $121, while a worst-case scenario would see oil reach a peak of between $140 and $157 — potentially exceeding all-time highs not seen since 2008.
