WEDDING SAREE

Wedding is a very important part of Indian traditions and so is the clothing. In a country like India, where you have a confluence of different religions and traditions, sari stands out as an important wedding attire bringing the much desired synergy.

Be it a traditional Tamil Brahmin wedding or a pompous Gujrati shaadi, saree has to be a part of the bride’s attire. Though a lot of designers have lehenga in their bridal collection, yetsari hasn’t lost its charm. It is still preferred over a lot of other Indian traditional wear like salwar kameez, ghaghra choli and lacha.

Ardently formulated in exquisite creations, the wedding collection mostly features rich and vibrant colour.Red is primarily the wedding colour followed by pink, maroon and orange. Until recently,the wedding sarees used to be an exclusive piece of Banarasi silk or an exquisite Kanchipuram creation. But with contemporary designs making their presence felt, the heavy brocade and floral motifs have been replaced by Zari, embroidery, organza, zardozi, sequence, cut work, mirror work, patchwork, pearl work, kasab and kundan. Besides with designers coming up with Bridal Trousseau, each and every girl can now pick her own collection for her ‘The Day’.

The saree has changed a lot over the years. Now the designs are flashier and there is a lot of handwork that goes into it. The fabric is mostly georgette. But all said and done, it still adorns a bride as beautifully as it has over the years.
