For her recent wedding, Bollywood actor Aditi Rao Hydari wore a handwoven Maheshwari tissue lehenga in pale gold paired with a matching Banarasi tissue dupatta from the Sabyasachi Heritage Textile Collection, joining a rising group of modern Indian brides who are embracing alternatives to traditional colours. In June, Sonkashi Sinha, wore a vintage ivory chikankari saree that belonged to her mother. Last year we saw Bollywood brides, Parineeti Chopra and Athiya Shetty, give the typical red lehenga a miss and opt for more subtle colours instead. Chopra wore a champagne-coloured lehenga designed by Manish Malhotra that reportedly took over 2,500 hours to create. Shetty chose a dainty pink lehenga with zardozi and chikankari, designed by Anamika Khanna.
