Fancy Lehenga choli for Brides

Can anyone escape the elegant lehenga cholis? Similar to sarees, lehenga cholis have now dominated the wedding scene. Brides are now open to the idea of wearing a lehenga choli, rather than a saree to walk down the aisle.

The lehengas have been in existence since a very long time. Where the tribals wore a shorter length lehenga, the middle class opted to wear it long and the aristocratic class very long! Each type being unique, a longer lehenga adds to the sophistication and grace of the bride adding flow! The bride now has a variety of cuts to choose from in her bridal lehenga cholis. Even a lehenga saree is not as graceful as a lehenga choli.

The old ‘Umbrella cut’ lehenga has now given way to new designer cuts like traditional straight cut, Kali ghaghra lehenga, A-line cut or the latest Mermaid cut, fish cut or panels! A lehenga is the best option for a bride to hide or flaunt her curves. Every woman can look her best as a bridal lehenga choli can be worn without hassles! Slim women could go for a lehenga with more flair, whereas a heavier woman should opt for a straight fit as it hides the weight!

Brides today, want a different look, which looks elegant; what better than a bridal designer lehenga online? Lehenga cholis are made in silk, chiffon, cotton, tissue, georgette, net and more which gives the bride to wear it in any season. These lehenga cholis are further highlighted with mirror work, stone embroidery, zardozi, brocade, appliqué work, thread work or tie and dye pattern to make the bridal lehenga stand out from others.

Bridal lehenga cholis are generally coloured in red, maroon and green.  A conventional twist to the bridal lehenga would encompass colours like blue, pink, wine, rust, and even bright yellow! Team the outfit with bangles or heavy kadas, high heels and chunky jewellery; even a traditional nose ring!

Recently, cholis are being made short, just covering the breasts to longer size for bulkier women. A bride is incomplete without a dupatta on her head; a bridal lehenga choli has dupattas which are embellished to highlight the bride. It can also be worn on the side or across the neck.

With so many styles, a lehenga choli is a ‘Must wear’ for brides! Go for that lehenga choli online; get your best look!
