This surge of weddings taking place in exotic locations such as Thailand, Monaco and remote palaces in Rajasthan, have strongly influenced the “going to be brides” and their fashion sensibilities.

The classic templates of the heavy Lehengas, have given way to a lighter and a modern silhouette with minimum embroidery but emphasis on the cut and styling.

Modern slim coats paired with saris, Bandhgala jackets paired with breeches or slim pants, offer a contemporary styling.

The renaissance in the Indian bridal arena has begun! Exotic locations and geographies require a new defining look which is global in its essence yet indigenous in its appeal and celebrates our rich past.
