No matter how much the Indian women love wearing western outfits, the traditional ones are still preferred when it comes to their bridal attire. That is the reason; lehengas have always been and still are one of the hottest choices of most Indian brides. However, if we take a look at the colour choices that our gorgeous brides make these days for their wedding lehenga, they are not restricted to the conventional red, pink or maroon, anymore. Rather, they are seen making some really experimental, unconventional and exciting choices.
So, for all the soon-to-be brides of this wedding season, it is time to think beyond the age-old colour palette of the bridal wear as we bring to you some of the hot and trendy colours of this wedding season.
Let us begin with something which is quite close to the family of traditional colours, like red, hot pink, maroon, etc. So, look vibrant on your wedding day in the tasty tangerine colour. While nothing beats the combination of gold and tangerine, you can add a twist to this combo by using the colour of a toasted almond instead of gold. You can take inspiration from Priyanka Chopra (right), who walked the ramp in Manish Malhotra ensemble. The lehenga has beautiful work in dull gold, and the subtle dupatta is just balancing the entire outfit perfectly well.
