Best bridal lehengas for pear-shaped body type

The owners of pear-shaped body types should keep in check that they don't opt for something that is voluminous in the bottom area. Try to stay away from extra flares in the lehenga skirt and opt for something that is plain and flowy. Fish-tail lehengas are a big 'no' for the pear-shaped body type, and you have to let your blouse do all the talking. As in a pear-shaped body, the lower portion is narrower, one should keep in check that they balance it out by opting for different kinds of cholis than the regular ones, such as the ones with paddings, or cape-style blouse, or high necks can be the best options.

Best bridal outfits for apple-shaped and inverted triangle-shaped body types

Talking about the apple-shaped body types, sharara cut lehengas and high waist lehengas can be the best. One has to keep in check that the top is covering the hip area, and if you want to experience short choli, add extra frills at the bottom to balance it out. Velvets are a big 'no' for the apple-shaped body types, and one should go for fluid fabrics. Talking about the drape, keep it in a vertical manner, to make you look the best.

For the owners of the inverted triangle-shaped body types, the best tip for you is to opt for something very minimal in the upper portion and pair it up with something that is flared and flowy at the bottom. Try to keep the neckline wide but deep necklines, off-shoulders, and sleeveless should be avoided. Keep the dupatta tucked in one shoulder so that it gives a leaner effect on the upper portion.

Flared outfits can always be the best for the owners for rectangular-shaped body type

Talking about the rectangular-shaped body type, the best fit for you is to opt for flared bottoms. Make it balanced out and opt for a lehenga skirt that has a lot of layers, ruffles, and pleats. The best combination of these lehengas is short choli for the rectangular-shaped body type, and try to volumise the upper portion with a unique drape style.

Amp up your style with a twist of customisation and the addition of accessories
