  •  With plunging necklines, long-trail skirts, capes and ponchos making waves on the runway, you have a wide-range of designs to opt for your wedding.
  • Red is the classy and traditional color most brides go for. You can choose otherwise and go for something different like pinks, pastels, burgundy or even metallic colors. Choose a color that suits your skin tone.
  • Choose your outfit according to your body type.
  1. If you are pear shaped, then wear an empire-waist lehenga gown that puts the emphasis away from your hips.
  2. If you have an hourglass figure, go for a well-fitted cocktail gown.
  3. If you have a small waist then go for a crop top and skirt.
  4. If you wanna flaunt your neckline or shoulders, go for something strapless or off-the-shoulder.

Rock a gown or a pretty crop top and skirt. Keep it elegant and chic! If you’re wearing red for your wedding, then avoid it on your engagement. Instead, choose pinks, pastels or royal blue. If it’s an evening affair then go for metallics or a poofy engagement gown.




2. Statement Cocktail Dress for Rehearsal Dinner

Though it’s not your actual wedding day, you still want all eyes on you. It’s almost like ‘the’ day! You want to look all pretty and stand out but also make sure you don’t overshadow your wedding dress. So, you can opt for a classy gown with unconventional embroidery or a side slit.

Choose a metallic bubblegum pink or a silver cocktail gown for an attractive look. A ruffled Indo western wedding dress in pink or blue would also look vibrant and peppy!




3. Royal Destination Wedding Dresses

Destination weddings are always an exotic affair. With beautiful and enchanting locations, you don’t want to compromise with your outfit.

Fort and castle weddings are magnificent and beautiful. Hence, opt for a heavy embroidered lehenga gown. To give an Indo western feel to your attire, opt for a sheer poncho or cape instead of the dupatta. Royal colors are perfect for a destination wedding dress like royal blue, red and gold. Go for a rich fabric like velvet, silk or brocade.




4. Peachy Pastels for a Beach Wedding

Beach weddings are always fun. Opt for light pastel colors like peach and white for a sundowner wedding. And purples and oranges if it’s an evening wedding. Also, try ruffled gowns to match the waves of the sea. Off-shoulder gowns and plunging necks look really sexy for beach weddings.
