Looking stunning as a Manipuri bride, Lin Laishram’s bridal look featured the traditional Potloi or Polloi skirt, which is cylindrical in shape and features an array of colours and textures, making it look like a piece of art. The skirt is made up of bamboo and fabric and is enhanced with sequins and mirrors. It is a known fact that the piece is also used by dancers in the Manipuri Raas Leela dance. She paired the skirt with a blouse, which was the perfect canvas for the Inaphee (shawl) wrapped around her.
The ensemble also comes with an Inaphee wrapped around the upper body, which is also layered with fine accessories and jewellery. Lin looked like a beautiful doll in the traditional look. Adding to her impressive style was the headdress she adorned, which made her look like a queen on her big day. The headdress, also known as Kajenglei is a crown with intricate and delicate designs.
The traditional wedding not only celebrated her roots but also welcomed Randeep into the Manipuri household. It’s beautiful how Randeep blended with Lin’s family traditions and wedding rituals. A special moment etched in their hearts forever, the wedding ensembles made them look like royalty.
Randeep and Lin, who announced their wedding date on social media a few days ago, will be hosting a reception in Mumbai soon. Ahead of the wedding, the couple were seen visiting and seeking blessings in temples around Imphal. The couple did spend time with Lin’s family and friends before the wedding and indulge in some fun pre-wedding activities.
