She paired it with a skirt featuring a 3-D floral pattern across the midriff, a body-con fit and a thigh-high side slit. Showcasing the richness of artisan craftsmanship, the beautiful floral pattern on the skirt was embellished with intricate gold detailing.

As far as accessories are concerned, Bhumi kept it chic and edgy. She styled her look with a multi-coloured necklace consisting of a gold choker, a chain and a pendant necklace. With a bracelet on her wrist and rings on her fingers, Bhumi completed her look perfectly.

Her makeup look was flawless featuring a smoky eyeshadow look with smudged eyeliner, kohl eyes and mascaraed lashes. She contoured her cheeks with a touch of blush and picked up a shade of nude lipstick. With her long luscious curls left open in the middle part, cascading beautifully down her shoulders, Bhumi finished off her glam look.

The modern and contemporary bride can be served by the wedding couture pieces in his line. The designs keep a major emphasis on excellent handwork while being dreamlike, adventurous, entertaining, and edgy. The collection aims to resurrect and highlight the exquisite craftsmanship and fine detailing that genuinely distinguish bridal couture. Bhumi
