Padma Lakshmiis ready to chef it up and strut in style.
Ahead of filming forTop ChefWorld All-Stars, the Bravo series host gave fans a sneak peek at what’s to come from her on-screen fashions in an Instagram video shared on Wednesday.
“As you can tell we’re going for a down-to-earth approachable season,” she joked while wearing a leather corset tube top. Her stylistAlbert Mendoncaheld up a dominatrix moto-inspired bustier top as another sexy option.
The short video then flipped between clips of Lakshmi’s fitting — including colorful, body-hugging knit dresses, business casual ensembles (made bright with a yellow blazer) and an avant-garde bubble top that didn’t appear to be of the star’s liking. The whole video was set to ABBA’s “Chiquitita.”
“Trying on looks for@bravotopchefseason 20 in London!!! 🔥 Which look is your favorite?,” she captioned the post.
Lakshmi is currently nominated for an Emmy for her hosting work onTop Chef.
The show itself — which debuted in 2006 — is up for 6 total Emmys, including outstanding competition program. Its companion series,Top Chef: Last Chance Kitchen, was also nominated for outstanding short form non-fiction or reality series.

“If you’re an Academy member, please remember to vote forTop Chefas we are nominated for 6 Emmys!!” Lakshmi wrote in her Instagram caption. “And one of them is for me for best host(!!). So please don’t forget to vote!”
