Colours and fabrics for a summer wedding


Designer Anushree Reddy, plays with the pastel palette. Actress Ileana D’Cruz, shines bright in a cream lehenga and peach-toned blouse with shimmery embroidery and sequins. The use of summer fabrics like malkha, chanderi and kota shows that keeping the weather in mind is a must, even when it comes to dressing-up for weddings. This new take on modern bridal wear is a perfect choice for you, in case you are yet to decide on the outfit for your sangeet or mehendi ceremonies. Polki and kundan jewellery go great with this look.


Keeping the regal elements alive


Designer Tarun Tahiliani brings together subtle and sorbet tones with sheer brilliance. Jacqueline Fernandez dazzles in a tangerine-red anarkali, with a shaded orange-pink-red net dupatta. This look surely makes for a royal bride, especially with the majestic polki set. This is a perfect choice if you plan to look like a traditional and regal bride. The several layers of fabric, giving the anarkali a voluminous, yet slim look, work pure magic. This outfit can be worn again comfortably, in case you have any other weddings or festivities coming up in the family soon after your wedding.


Shimmer and champagne for your cocktail night!


Inspired by champagne bubbles, designer Komal Sood teaches you how to style a shimmery gold gown to perfection. You too can dazzle like the effervescent Kalki Koechlin, at your cocktail night! A simple arm band with a messy bun keeps the look balanced. A glittering sequined gold gown is also perfect for your pre-wedding bash or bachelorette party, where you wish to look all dressed-up, without going over the top. 


Modern take on the traditional lehenga


Actress Karisma Kapoor looks dazzling in designer Arpita Mehta's modern take on the traditional lehenga. The intricately embroidered icy blue cropped choli with heavy doses of mirror work and 3D mirror flowers, teamed with a flowing chiffon skirt with mirror work on the hem and waistband, is apt for your sangeet or chooda ceremonies. This outfit will also look stunning for a destination wedding on the beach, especially with the fresh colours. 


Sarees go bold and creative


Designer Sonaakshi Raaj is known for her alluring red carpet creations, and her modern interpretation of the nine yards. For the Lakme Fashion Week ramp this season, she gave an interesting new look to the saree. This look on actress Prachi Desai, is perfect for your engagement or cocktail night.
