To help you navigate through the world of Lehengas, we've curated a comprehensive fashion guide with Lehengas that are perfect for a lot of occasions that our customers often go to. So, let's dive in and discover your perfect match!
Weddings
Lehengas are a staple attire for brides during Indian weddings. An intricately designed lehenga with heavy embroidery would be ideal for weddings. The color can be traditional red or any other bright colours.
Engagement
Many brides-to-be opt for a lighter and more comfortable Lehenga during their engagement ceremony, as it is less elaborate than the one they wear on the wedding day. This also applies if you're attending an engagement ceremony.
Usually, a lighter and more comfortable lehenga with elegant embroidery and pastel / trendy color is worn at engagements.
Sangeet
Sangeet is a pre-wedding event filled with music and dance performances. Lehengas with vibrant colors and designs are preferred by women to dance freely.
A vibrant and colorful Lehenga with a flare that allows easy dancing is ideal for Sangeet. It can have fun elements like tassels or mirror work. In addition, Kurthi is also an excellent alternative as they are much lighter than Lehengas and are perfect for dancing. Let us know if you're interested in Kurthis.
Mehndi / Mehendi
Mehndi is a traditional pre-wedding ritual where henna is applied to the bride's hands and feet. Lehengas worn during Mehndi ceremonies are usually bright and cheerful, often featuring floral patterns.
Usually, the dresses include bright and cheerful lehenga, sari or Kurthis with floral motifs. Yellow, green, or orange are popular colors for Mehndi.
Reception
After the wedding, couples often host a reception to celebrate with family and friends. Lehengas for receptions are usually grand and glamorous.
Lehengas in Receptions are quite grand and glamorous with modern designs and sophisticated embellishments. These Lehengas are heavy and usually have cancan underskirts attached to the Lehengas.
Although, Lehengas in receptions can be sophisticated, you can also wear Lehengas that have trendy colors if you don't want to wear heavy Lehengas with cancan underskirts. Talk to us if you're unsure about anything.
Festivals
During Indian festivals like Diwali, Navratri, and Eid, women often wear lehengas to add a traditional touch to the celebrations.
Usually any Lehengas, Sari or Kurthis can be worn in these festivals. However, a traditional lehenga with cultural motifs and bright colors to match the festive spirit of the occasion would be ideal.
