Choosing the right outfit for your wedding is one of the most stressful and tedious task.

Your bridal dress has to be more than the perfect so as to make you look the best on your most memorable moment. But the question arises what to do with that perfect dress, which is too heavy to be worn anywhere else. “Having dressed over 2000 brides in the past two and a half decades the most important aspect of choosing the wedding ensemble has to be uniqueness... comfort and most definitely reusability,” says Fashion Designer Amy Bilimoria

The best way to do so is divide the outfits in separates. “So have a blouse that’s a fusion mix teamed with a lighter lehenga and pre-pleat a heavy sari over the lighter lehenga as the Dupatta. In doing so, one can wear each piece separately later,” advices Amy. For example the fusion blouse can be teamed with pallazos; the lighter inner lehenga can be used for smaller wedding functions or Sangeets and once the pleating of the Dupatta is opened you can wear it as a sari. This allows the bride to fully use her attire and the heavy ensemble does not simply sit in the cupboard.
