/> Bollywood is suddenly getting mighty posh. And the costs are cutting into our forthcoming films' budgets.

Reportedly the costume budget for Abbas Tyrewala's 1: 800 Love has gone up by three times. And why not? The lady who dressed up Gerard Butler is doing the needful for John Abraham.

If Mona May who did the costumes of Amy Adams in Enchanted is doing Sonam Kapoor's clothes in her home production Ayesha, then John Abraham is being taken even further down the cosmopolitan clothes route by Abbas Tyrewala in 1: 800 Love to be shot this month in London.

John's clothes in Abbas' film are being done by the pricey and the posh Suzie Harman who dressed up Gerard Butler in Guy Ritchie's 2008 blockbuster RocknRolla.

Though the director refuses to divulge any details producer Madhu Mantena reluctantly reveals, "Yes, Suzie Harman is on board. How we got her is aanother story. All the crew of 1: 800 Love barring the cinematographer is from London."

Suzie Harman who has done the entire styling for more than a dozen top British and American films has been shopping at London's pricey Harrod's store for John. And the lady has pulled out all stops in getting the right clothes.

"My director Abbas has no hair to tear. But I'm about to go bald worrying about the clothes budget. And it's not just John, " says producer Mantena. "She's dressing up the entire cast, all the characters including the leading lady Pakhi and of course John."

Apparently the clothes budget for Abbas' film has already shot up three times over. But the producer is not complaining.

"I trust Abbas' judgement completely. And yes it looks like the film will be much costlier than I thought. But good things don't come cheap."
