Dressing ideas for winter wedding – Times of India

Social media has seeped into every sartorial nook and clothing cranny of celebrations, adding to the myth of the perfect celebrity life, making the Bollywood drama come alive in our closets. From the sari pallu flowing to lehengas with trails in organza, there is something everyone wants to adapt and flaunt on the digital stratosphere. However, keeping warm is another question in point for all upcoming winter weddings. So to help you enjoy the perfect Bolly-wedding of your bestie, here are some tips to keep you warm and fashionable.

Embroidered glam

Wedding finery is a work of fine labour and intricate work which comes alive with the finest of embroidery. Opt for a heavily embroidered lehenga that can stand the test of times. Finish off the look by tucking a flower in your hairdo.

Bring out raw silks and velvets

While some fabrics are lighter, they must be kept away for winter weddings. This is the time to bring out your fine silks, raw silks, velvets and organzas, which are great options to opt for.

Opt for deeper hues

While we love the pastels, winter colours drift towards deeper hues such as Marsala, deep greens and blues. Even for menswear, these hues work great. You can go for a monotone look, or even add a layer of contrasting colours.

Beating the chills

Dear men, it’s time to add on layering with stoles, bandis and open long jackets.

Dramatic drapes

Wedding Wear is synonymous with lehengas. A lehenga as an ensemble is an emotion that rings in the festivities with its share of drama. And if you are someone who loves to experiment, then befriend the dupatta for the perfect winter wedding look.

All that glitters

There is nothing as too much sheen, add a touch of glimmer to your look with glitter or sequin or mirror work lehenga. While they all help channel a different vibe, they can add the right dose of glamour to your look.
