Things to keep in mind while selecting the Lehenga

#1 Check for the Inner-facing of the Dupatta

Yup, most of the time, we forget to give importance to dupatta and often just see the front. But, the right way to select the best lehenga that looks great on you is to look at the details. Check for the inner facing, and the fabric. Always choose a bright colour of facing, as colour like midnight blue will make you look darker in the pictures.
