Bridal Lehengas and Sarees by area:


Bridal Lehengas and Sarees

While wedding planning encompasses a host of different aspects such as venue selection, decor, food and favors, a bride’s wardrobe is of singular importance in the process. Some want regal ensembles with exquisite embroidery, while others want comfortable and breezy fabrics with quirky prints and modern color combinations. Needless to say, a bride’s wedding outfits need to reflect her personality as well as make her look and feel her best.

WeddingSutra brings you a wide range of world-class bridal wear by designers famed for their gorgeous collections, expert craftsmanship, and versatile silhouettes to suit every bride.

TYPES OF BRIDAL OUTFITS

Couture Lehengas

These dreamy options include pastel lehengas with swoon-worthy embellishments, or richly embroidered maharani lehengas in deep hues of crimson or classic reds. Lighter colors and delicate designs work well for functions like an engagement or mehendi, while heavier options can be worn for the sangeet and wedding.

Designer sarees

A rich, decadent saree is the perfect choice for those who want both tradition and style. Intricate borders, unique fabrics and dramatic colors are sure to make you stand out. Pair a classic saree with a dramatic and modern blouse for maximum impact.

Regional Styles

India is a rich melting pot of diverse cultures, each with their unique set of handloom variants, beautiful workmanship and cultural motifs. Select from a choice of Banarasi, Paithani, and Kanjeevaram silks, and many more, for a look steeped in tradition. These are perfect for a traditional ceremony like a family puja.

Fusion Styles

Indo-western styles are available in a plethora of designs. Quirky colors and patterns make these innovative cuts ideal for a chic sundowner, mehendi or haldi.

Gowns

Incorporate some western silhouettes into your trousseau and work gowns into your trousseau for a contemporary look which is ideal for a reception.

Shararas

Shararas make a great replacement for a lehenga or an anarkali, with their unique look. With different levels of embroidery and detailing, these can be worn at any function.

Anarkalis

Richly embroidered floor-length anarkalis make a great substitute for lehengas especially for those who want to add a magical Mughal vibe to their look. Their light colors and delicate work make them ideal for other functions as well.
