Types of Bridal Dresses
Patterns & Colors
The rich Indian textile heritage, with stylistic cuts and combinations
is poised to become the fashion statement of the coming century. A
short-stature bride should avoid wearing heavy outfits like silks and
prefer georgettes and crepe. Similarly, a tall bride should fancy heavy
embroidered silks. Pinks, oranges, reds, saffrons and blues are a rage
among the Indian brides. Bright reds, shades of dark pink also enhance
the persona of a fair bride. Similarly, for a dusky bride, shades of
peach, light brown would embellish her appearance.
Styles And Drapes
Nowadays many young brides favor the straight skirt lehengas because
they don't want to be weighed down by the heavy gold and silver
embroidery on full-skirted lehengas. The bride wanting the perfect style
should smartly combine the conventional with the unconventional. A heavy
embroidered dupatta can be teamed with the lehenga, amalgamating the
conventional with the unconventional. Simple and elegant styles create
more impact than fancy and heavy ones. For a traditional look, the
ever-beautiful sari as a perfect outfit for a bride. A sari has the
unique ability to make a woman look traditional and trendy adding a
touch of glamor to the most awaited day.
Fabrics
Bridal wear should not consist of organzas and tissues since the
garment is at a risk of getting damaged permanently in the long run.
Crepe, heavy georgettes, silks, nets lend grace and poise to the bridal
ensemble.
