Soaking in the colours of tradition!

As they say, India is a land of varied culture, and each one of them has its own customs and traditions. This variety is often depicted on different occasions, be it festivals or special celebrations. Besides this, another instance which represents this diversity is their weddings, and their brides to be precise.

Well, traditional Indian brides surely look beautiful in every colour they don and each culture is colour specific when it comes to the bridal wear. However, each culture has its own “bridal norms” with its own meaning.

Standing distinguished from all other cultures, Indian-Christian bride takes her wedding oath in a beautiful white gown symbolising her gentle and kind spirit. A net veil along with a beautiful Tiara on her head and a flower bouquet in her hand, she epitomises a soul of praise. For jewellery, she usually chooses sophisticated pieces from silver or diamond collection. Sikh brides are known for their vibrant and peppy avatar. The most crucial elements of a Sikh bride are her choodas and kalire. While dressing up for her Anand Karaj ceremony, she chooses either a light coloured lehnga or an Anarkali suit pairing it with heavy jewellery. When it comes to Tamilan weddings, the most outstanding thing about Tamilian bride is her jewellery. She is decorated with heavy gold jewellery worn with bright and woven Kanjeevaram sarees. Her hair is usually braided or tied up in one of the most beautiful styles, along with the graceful Gajras.  

Somehow, Punjabi brides have been witnessed in many Bollywood movies and television soaps. She dresses up in the brightest way possible for her special day. Usually seen in a heavy lehenga from the red-pink colour family, she is covered with heavy jewellery, from head-to-toe. The nose ring and the henna being are essential to her bridal look. Going by the Assamese custom, the bride necessarily has to wear mekhla chadar, acream or off-white silk saree with gold work. She mostly goes with light makeup and is usually low on her jewellery, that too only traditional ones. Their Mang tika is considered to be the most auspicious jewellery piece and that is surely one distinctive ornament worn by the Assamese brides.

With every state speaking about their colours and cultures, Bengal sings its own traditional tune. A traditional Bengali bride wears a bright red banarasi silk saree or a lehenga with zari work on her wedding. What’s most important is the Alta that is applied to her palms and feet. It’s considered to be the most auspicious part of the bridal attire that adds to her divinity. Like every other culture, Islamic weddings have evolved too over time. A traditional Muslim bride is seen dressed in green during her wedding. One thing which a Muslim bride is known for is her jewellery, especially the headgear called the jhoomar. Her face is covered with the veil and is shown only after the Nikah is completed. Moving towards the west of India, Gujarat is known for its colours! And a Gujarati wedding is no less vibrant. Gujarati brides typically wear a georgette saree with heavy embroidery and sequence work, with the palla in front. In fact, there are two types of wedding saris; one is the Panetar which is a white sari with a red Bandhini border and the other is the Gharchola which is a red Bhandini sari with gold checks running across it and Bhandini motifs.

India topping the list in diversity, soaked in traditions, every state and their culture hold great prominence. With a splash of colour in their attires, each bride is significant and it’s the colour of joy and elegance that covers her face truly shunning the beauty of everything else!

While preparing for your wedding, immerse yourself in the colours of your tradition and pick the most brilliant piece from the Sareez huge array of the collection!

Alia Bhatt – Redefining the Modern Ethnicity

When we talk about classy fashion and impeccable sense of style, Alia Bhatt is one name we all will agree on. Be it her movie promotions, award shows or her BFF’s wedding functions, we have been fortunate to see her exquisite traditional looks and the last few months are hard to not to remember. She has laid hands on ethnic masterpieces and we can’t help but announce her as the ethnic trendsetter. She has been effortlessly donning glamorous lehengas, indo-western outfits, suits and more, all decked up as a traditional diva.

In fact, let me show you some of those looks which have compelled me to write this article dedicated to her ethnic fashion choices:

1. The one in shiny golden

I’m sure you’ll very well recall this look of Alia when she stepped in for Shloka and Akash Ambani’s pre-wedding engagement party. The actress wore a glittery golden lehenga-choli by a famous designer. She allowed her dress to do the talking while she chose to keep her makeup and hair light ─ simply perfect!

2. The one in bright green

Alia’s look for Sonam Kapoor’s reception will undoubtedly be remembered for all the right reasons. Carrying the neon green with such class, she made us all nostalgic of the long forgotten colour. She paired the Sabyasachi lehenga with diamond jewellery, keeping her hair and makeup light, ideally presenting a beautiful combination of simplicity and brightness.

3. The one in classic white

Ah! The royal and classic woman in white. She wore this famous designer’s embroidered ivory piece at the IIFA red carpet leaving us all stunned of the classiness she brought up with this look. Not to mention, we all loved her light makeup paired with a high bun, taking the standards of elegance to the stratosphere.

4. The one in shimmering grey

Another ‘Alia-in-ethnic’ look which we loved was this shimmery and sequenced grey saree from our favourite wardrobe collection. Unlike the usual, this time she went for smokey eyes along with a little bindi (quite a combination, isn’t it?) giving us major goals for bridesmaid look, she truly made our eyes go glit glit glittery.

5. The one in shiny yellow

This floor-length Anarkali piece made yellow the colour of the season for us. For a day event, we couldn’t think of any better colour than this. Alia truly mesmerized us with the brightness she had, both on her face and dress, making a complete justice to this brightening outfit from Manish Malhotra collection.

6. The one in pink

Alia look which we adored was this pink and white saree designed by her favourite designer. The embroidered saree with golden prints looked absolutely stunning when paired with heavy jhumkas and gajra (who wouldn’t like that?) The actress carried the conventional traditional look with such poise, making us fall in love with sarees and gajra all over again.

7. The one in orange

Undoubtedly, Alia looked drop-dead gorgeous in this pretty Anarkali. But, what caught our attention most was the green earrings she paired well with a low bun. Well! Only she could have dared to pair green with orange and white, and look so breathtaking!

P.S. Which Alia look did you like the most and when are you wearing a similar one? Get some of these stunning pieces from the Sareez online store and make a mark. While Alia continues to turn heads with her mesmerizing outfits, you can do it as well providing what outfits your purchase and from where! It’s time to shine! Shine on…

He looked dashing in the red Kanjeevaram sherwani – a cross of south Indian fabric styling for a north style wedding by Sabyasachi again – a true fashion genius; jewelry that is reminiscent of the occasion – layered with emeralds, diamonds & garnets something overshadowing his bride and both the parties had the best footwear that went with the colour red to celebrate the reunion – customized well-crafted juttis from Christian Louboutin: popular French Brand.

Palazzos with long kurti:

If you truly wish to rock the casual chick look at the office, ditch your tight leggings or pants for a breezy pair of palazzos and wear it with a colour coordinated kurti for an oh-so-stylish look. We all have loved Deepika Padukone in this look in the movie Piku. You can team this look with a bindi and a messy ponytail to replicate her gorgeousness. For a little laid by look, don’t wear a dupatta, and that’s it! How effortlessly stylish this look is.

Pick a kurta in pastel colours with subtle work, add some accessories like a choker necklace and classic heels and you would turn heads at any corporate event!

Experimental styles:

If your style is boho and you are not afraid to stand out, add a personal taste to your salwar kameez by wearing an angarkha style kurti or dhoti style pants. If your kurti is loud, make sure to pair it with subtle bottoms and vice-a-versa. You can even wear a simple long Anarkali like a kurti dress, or a long shirt-style kurti and just play around with different styles of carrying a dupatta and scarfs.

Anarkali is best for wedding or party wear. It has a lot to flaunt in a simple yet elegant makeover. If your body type is hour-glass or you are tall then it has the best match in Anarkali. This salwar kamez design has taken over a mass market share in Middle East and Asian countries sales graph.

A-line floor length salwar is also much on demand. A line high low salwar kammez design is good for regular wear or party wear as well. With cigarette pant or churidar it looks great. Being ethnic it accompanies a smarty look with aesthetic and elegance.

Silted salwar suit! Inclining to the western makeover it portrays an ethnic look. Side slit or two front slit is the pulse of this season.  Flaunt it with palazzo or petals pant is good to go. The tie and knot with latkan flaunted at side add to the exuberance.

Replacing the salwar, customized pant has taken away the market

Palazzo is ruling the market for last three years. Flairs and flaunts has entrenched its exuberance. For regular wear or party wear, it has no parallel. Not just young age group, the elderly women folk have replaced their saree or salwar rack with palazzo and kurti breed. Catching the market pulse it is on height.

Short leggings, petal pants, cigarette pant are comfortable and gorgeous too. Harem, Afghani pant, sharara, skirt and lot more has altered the concept of salwar kammez but yet adheres to the root.
