Style Secrets
Hot trends for the season?
“For summer weddings,
fabrics like soft satin,
micro velvet, crepe de
chine, soft silk, lamé and
net are the trendsetters.
Pastel hues and earthy
tones like nudes, peach,
dusty pinks and mint
green with a metallic tint,
rule the colour palette.
Global fashion has a
significant influence
on Indian bridal wear.
Blouses make a statement
with cold shoulder and off
shoulder styles, ruffles,
bell sleeves and fringes.
These are styled with
flouncy and dramatic
lehengas. Asymmetrical
patterns are also making a
comeback on the runway,”
says Sneh.
For the brides, she says,
go very Indian traditional
or wear an heirloom
piece for the wedding
day keeping it elegant,
regal and respectful but
for other occasions like
Mehendi, Sangeet or
the Reception, she urges
you to experiment with
contemporary styles.
