The Quintessential Bride!

A wedding ensemble is something that will always be close to a bride’s heart. It is crucial for her to choose something that suits her well and reflects her unique personality. But putting together close-to-perfect looks for back-to-back events and celebrations is definitely not an easy task. For an elegant and chic look, she can opt for Indo-western gowns and sarees. These fusion dresses approach modernity and boasts of ethnic elements at the same time. The creative use of materials, designs and cuts in these bridal outfits have become the ideal choice for an Indian bride. Many designers including Manish Malhotra, JJ Valaya, Gaurav Gupta and Monisha Jaising have experimented with fusion bridal wear that revolves around the ‘East meets West’ concept. These garments aren’t just traditional Indian attires; they also implement innovative western designs and perspectives.

As the ace designers from the fraternity unveiled their bridal collections at the recently held fashion weeks, the audience witnessed a myriad of new age bridal couture take over the runways. One of the most prominent trends that left an undeniable impression was that ‘red’ was no longer the dominant colour of the season. While Indian bridal fashion is undergoing enormous change, an avantgarde pairing of eastern heritage with western influences has taken over. Coalescing different elements of ethnic wear with western silhouettes, these new designs are the perfect choice for a cocktail or sangeet ceremony.
