Must-haves for the grand celebration include opulent traditional attire like intricately embroidered sarees for the bride and regal sherwanis for the groom
Indian wedding fashion is a vibrant tapestry of cultural richness and sartorial elegance. Must-haves for this grand celebration include opulent traditional attire like intricately embroidered sarees for the bride and regal sherwanis for the groom. The bride’s ensemble is adorned with exquisite gold or gemstone jewelry, complementing the elaborate henna designs on her hands and feet. The groom, no less resplendent, accessorizes with traditional turban and accessories. The color palette is vivid, reflecting the festive spirit, and the meticulous attention to detail extends to every element, from ornate invitations to the decorative venue. Indian wedding fashion is a harmonious blend of heritage and haute couture.
Vrinda Sachdev, Creative Director Qbik on wedding must haves for the season.
- A classic heirloom shawlWhether it’s a toosh teamed with one of your ornate outfits or an exclusive Kalamkari shawl with a more muted one, a shawl just completes a winter wedding look while solving its purpose as well. These can also complete the men’s attire. Teamed with a bandhgala or a classic achkan, it accentuates the look, adds grace and really makes the person stand out.
- An exclusive piece of jewelleryThis may not be a must-have but more like a pro tip. Avoid wearing an entire set. Fusion in jewellery is really trending. One exclusive bracelet or a pair of earrings or a choker or haar, depending on the style of the outfit, choose one ! There are chandeliers to solve the purpose at the function, you need not be one.
- Blouse blouse blouseFor me, blouse is everything. It is a versatile separate when teamed with a variety of other separates, and can make a wholesome outfit depending on the nature of the function.A handheld embroidered batua, potli, bucket bag, hard case, completes the whole look in a stylish way. Although one has to look effortless, merchandising just goes to show one has put thought into their look. Every accessory needs to solve its purpose.
- Comfort is the keyWedges or mules, wear comfortable footwear to enjoy, socialise and make the most of your time with friends and family.
A beautiful, embroidered, well fitted or oversized jacket or achkan can be paired with bralettes, ghararas, fitted pants and corset, lehenga and a blouse. The look is interesting and a pleasant change from the dupattas worn like capes that have been in trend since years now.
