Hola Ladies..!!
So the wedding bells are already ringing. Do you have a friend of yours getting married this season or your sister is all set to walk down the aisle? Or is the bride-to-be wanting to know what to wear at her wedding? We already know how Indian weddings are always high on trends and glamour. So let us have a sneak peek into the latest wedding trends of 2016.
1. Cape Lehengas
Cape caught our eyes when our leggy lass Deepika started this vogue in 2015. And what I see is that this trend is not going to leave the market early. Just like the dupattas, capes are making a revolution in the world of fashion. Dupatta which is worn as a cape or a separate cape attached to the choli is very easy to carry and fills in the need of heavy jewellery. The cape Lehengas are the perfect blend of contemporary as well as the traditional look.
2. Subtlety at the Best
Those were just the old school things when the brides used to dress up in heavy Lehengas from top to toe along with kilos of jewellery with minimum or no skin to bare. Brides these days are stowing away from too much glitter. More and more brides are now preferring minimalism and subtlety. There is only one hero. Either it’s the designer Lehengas or the embellished choli. The rest of the things are kept at subtle.
3. Floral Power
This trend is seen to be the highest in the Indian weddings these days. Brides and the bridesmaids as well, now prefer floral print dresses and Lehengas. Big bold motifs and flower prints on the dresses are being prominent these days. So feel free to wear floral at a wedding.
4. Light Shades of Dresses
Maroon and red Lehengas are no longer in vogue. It doesn’t fascinate the modern Indian bride anymore. It is no more any rule to wear pastel shades only on the summer outings. You can wear pastel for the wedding as well. A pastel coloured Lehengas along with heavily embellished dupatta and minimalistic jewellery looks best for the wedding these days.
5. Ombre in Vogue
We all have been hearing this word pretty often since last year. It keeps coming back again and again. If you’re fed up of the same old type of Lehengas, you can do something out of the box for your wedding. You can don the ombre inspired Lehengas. You can also try the ombre inspired Lehengas for your pre-wedding rituals as well.
6. Gold? Please Move On!
Gold jewellery is more like the ancient things for the bride. The only people who find them attractive are the aunties at the weddings. But believe it doesn’t look chic anymore. Look for other classic pieces like platinum or gemstones.
7. Embroidered Shoes
Yes, shoes deserve the equal attention when picking up the wedding essentials. Beautiful embroidery is not restricted to the clothes only. You can see many embroidered shoes in the stores these days. They look pretty while complementing well with your outfit.
8. Shake Hands with Silk & Velvet
These traditional fabrics have made a somersault this year. And we are going to welcome its comeback. It’s just like going back to our roots. You can try silk Lehengas or the velvet Lehengas for your wedding.
9. Crown Style Maang Tika
Embrace this new trend in the town with open arms. The traditional Maang Tika have become too mainstream. Crown style Maang Tika make you look and feel like a queen. Have a look how pretty they are!
