Rahul Mishra: Is white ever right for the desi bride?
Designer Rahul Mishra thinks not everyone needs to flaunt bright colours on their special day.
Not everyone needs to flaunt bright colours on their special day. Inspired by the multitasking woman, this ivory lehenga from Rahul Mishra uses chintz and age-old craftsmanship to dress up his perfect bride of the season.
The result: a modern, progressive, graphic style. “It is a testimony to our commitment to handlooms,” says Mishra. “The hand-embroidery is the outcome of efforts to reverse the migration of craftsmen, and a new step in producing slow fashion.”
How you can work it
Celebrity stylist Rishi Raj says brides are no longer hesitant to break rules in colour. “Lighter pastel shades teamed with floral or multicoloured jewellery, work beautifully for a day wedding,” he says.
Makeup to go
Vidya Tikari suggests smoky bronze brown shadow with natural eyebrows and a stone brown matte lipstick to rock the look.
Wedding wow
Avoid traditional, heavy pieces with such ensembles as they kill the delicacy.
