From tiny blouses that mirror bralettes to lightweight lehengas sans cancan—Kiara Advani is really the poster girl for Indian wear done with a modern twist. As wedding season is quickly descending upon us, with Diwali in the rearview mirror, Kiara Advani's wardrobe serves just the right amount of traditional silhouettes with contemporary swaps. Corset tops are the new blouse Let’s face it, regular kurta and blouses are as boring as they can get.
The 2.0 version of the sexy destination wedding-approved ensembles has discarded the typical traditional top wear for a fun corset. Kiara Advani’s structured and figure accentuating sari which she sported at Manish Malhotra’s Diwali soirée this year featured a velvety dusty pink textured mini corset.
The actor once again wore a corset bodice with a pre-draped skirt attached to it by Pakistani designer Faraz Manan for Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant's Shubh Aashirwad ceremony, the bedazzling creation was doused in glass beads, pearls and crystals making it an ideal choice for any cocktail or sangeet. Pre-draped saris for the win Saris are a universally flattering silhouette and a destination wedding demands a convenient alternative to the tedious drape that can take up to an hour to put together, enter the pre-draped sari. Manish Malhotra’s pre-draped number included his signature sequins and shimmers in hues of gold and the elongated pallu added drama to the look.
On the other hand, the demure emerald-toned pre-draped outfit by ASAGA comprises a mirror work and sequined blouse and pallu , at the same time, the plain skirt in the jewel tone harmonizes the look to completion. Lightweight lehengas Lehengas have become an unwritten wedding attendee uniform of sorts, however, the overbearing cancan and intricate yet heavy embroidery are often deterrents. Monika Nidhi’s sublime yellow lehenga set features a V-neck plunging blouse covered in an all-eyes-on-me mirror work and the weightless skirt has a combination of minimal Aari embroidery and mirror work.
For all the morning festivities, look no further than Anita Dongre’s multicoloured printed lehenga that features motifs of flamingos and ripe lemons amongst other foliage, styled with a printed blue and white spaghetti strap blouse the finishing touch was the oversized meenakari chaanbali’ s by Tyaani. Comfortable cape and jacket sets If there’s one traditional attire every lazy lass can’t get enough of, it’s the cape and jacket co-ordinated sets . Owing to its popularity over the years, these 3 piece sets are mostly paired with a flattering cape or jacket along with a bustier-like blouse and sharara , dhoti or pallazo pants .
The ivory co-ord set by Ridhima Bhasin is a takeaway in building a capsule wedding guest wardrobe as it includes timeless tone-on-tone embroidery and pearl work throughout the outfit. Juxtaposing the co-ord set, the statement choker was crafted in emeralds and pearls. Rishi and Vibhuti’s shrug set ticks all the boxes for a bohemian beachy occasion.
The floor-length shrug features slender strips of navy sequins along with matching tassels while the floral printed bottoms are flared at the end. The sultry multi-coloured bikini-styled blouse comprised varying sequins, embellishments and tassels in a range of colours.
