A modern bride can never go wrong with white. This jacket-style lehenga is light-weight and spells effortless glamour. Teamed with silver jewellery, it makes for a beautiful choice for sangeet festivities
DHOTI GOES INTERNATIONAL
If you are a contemporary bride who likes things with a hint of tradition, this peplum kurta with sequin work and thread embroidery is a head-turning pick for you.
GEOMETRY MEETS NATURE
Geometric motifs applied in bronze, gold and silver blended with floral embroidery make this sari stand out. Paired with a beaded blouse, it’s a perfect pick for the modern bridesmaid.
WHIFF OF FRESHNESS
This refreshing green light-weight lehenga with gotta work, paired with a sheer choli is perfect for a mehendi function.
FLORAL OPULENCE
Models twirled on the ramp just like the confident, new-age brides in this resplendent anarkali. Bead-embedded flowers strewn over beautifully textured fabric celebrated nature in the most breathtaking way.
BLUSHED TO PERFECTION
A blush flared kurta with palazzos spruced with intricate zardozi work and hand-embroidery will stand out in a sea of reds and maroons.
VELVET VERVE
Floral zardozi and gold wire work done on velvet lehengas exuded opulence. The A-line lehenga was teamed with a sheer blouse. This look is for the freespirited bride who plays by her own fashion rules.
LUXE IS BLACK
This black velvet jacket with golden embroidery on the sleeves and a cheerful red flower on one side presented a fun, light-hearted take on couture for men. The unbuttoned jacket was teamed with satin pants for the ultra-luxe effect.
DIPPED IN GOLD
Golden jodhpuri pants teamed with black velvet jacket took predictability out of menswear. The over-sized flower on one side made this design a total head-turner.
THE BIGGER THE BETTER
When it’s a flower, it has to be a big deal! A stunning black sari with bold, over-sized flowers was given a sexy twist with a luxe wrap blouse. A slick top knot bun and strong eyebrows completed the look.
IT’S A WRAP
Wrap blouses with A-line skirts created an effortlessly sculpted look. Bright red flamingo prints on the ivory skirt added that dash of colour to the contemporary attire.
SARONG STORY
Reviving the lungi, modern jackets with silver thread work were teamed with cotton silk blend lungis. The allivory look was completed with offwhite moccasins. A great option for those who never shy away from experimenting.
