Q.1 what are the latest trends to swear by summer wedding 2016?
Weddings in India have always been an elaborate affair. This
season heavy embellished lehengas and saris in classic shades of red and maroon
are slowly getting replaced by florals, pastels and bright hues such as blue,
orange, mint green etc. Attires with delicate patterns, structured dresses,
off-shoulder blouses, crop tops and fringes with the right amount of gold and
metallic work are dominating the festivity. It is about lighter fabrics that
maintain the classic look but with a contemporary twist.

Q.2 Please elaborate?
Earlier, wedding outfits were dominated by heirlooms, now
they’re led by trends. There are wedding photographers waiting to capture your
once in a lifetime experience that gets shared with family and friends via
social media. Brides and bridesmaids prefer outfits that are on trend as well
as match their comfort level. In my opinion, it is best to go for something
subtly traditional- with intricate designs in delicate colours.

Nets, georgette, raw silk, chiffon are fit for all season
while velvet can be used for winter as it is a bit heavier than the other
materials.

Q.4 what tips will you give to brides-to-be in choosing
their outfit for that special day?
Don’t be overly trend-driven, a bridal outfit is for keeps
(and hopefully an heirloom you would like to pass along). Invest in something
that you connect with. Head over to a bridal studio and get comfortable with
your outfit, or wear it a couple of times before the wedding. Ensure that you
feel comfortable in it. It is your special day and an uncomfortable outfit
shouldn’t feature in it.
