GET ‘KNOTTED’ IN STYLE
BRIDAL FASHION REVEALS THAT THE CONTEMPORARY INDIAN BRIDE IS EMBRACING THE TRADITIONS WITH PANACHE BUT GIVING THEM HER OWN INDIVIDUALISTIC STAMP. APARNA GUPTA SPOKE TO SOME ACE FASHION DESIGNERS TO DECODE THE BIG TRENDS FOR THE UPCOMING WEDDING SEASON

The overall look is more structured and stylised. What gives the bride a contemporary edge is how the ensemble is put together and styled on her. The bling gets a vintage look. Bronze and copper are popular hues for traditional embroideries.
Make-up is going natural. Exit bright red lipsticks, and enter rosy shades. Eyes go more dramatic.
Cakey foundations make way for flawless bases.
Silhouette of the season:
Sherwanis or jacket kurtas in rich
fabrics such as brocade, raw silk,
jacquard teamed with cigarette
pants or a fitted churidar.
 
Brides are slipping into designer
gowns for the Cocktail Evening or even the Reception. Hauté colours: Champagne, silver, midnight blue, wine and even emerald green.
Cholis get a makeover. More attention is paid to their fabrics,
texture and fit. The necklines are intricate, whereas the back is
plunging southwards. Flaunt those toned arms in sheer sleeves
with interesting trimmings.
Instead of mere embellishments,
the drama is brought by a play
of colours and textures. Mixing of
4-5 hues in one ensemble might
be the new trend. While for the
wedding traditional colours such as rusts, reds, pinks continue to rule, for related festivities emerald green, navy or midnight blue and wine are designers’
favourites.
