The Indian wedding landscape has evolved over the recent years, and so have the fashion trends around it. The conventional lehengas have taken a contemporary approach. Modern brides are ditching the traditional red colour in favour of whites and pastels and vibrant prints. Brides are also switching lehengas for traditional sarees and gowns on the big day. However, the quintessential bridal lehenga is far from being outdated, as it can be worn at any wedding function.
If you are a bride tying the knot this year, a bridesmaid or even attending a wedding as a guest, these 2022 designer lehenga trends will help you uncomplicate your hunt for a lehenga.
- Sweeping Trails
Ever since the beginning of 2022, one lehenga trend that has been doing the rounds online is one that features the dramatic skirt or dupatta trails. A number of brides have opted for long trails to add grandeur to their entry to the wedding venue and we cannot deny, that the trail makes the wedding shoots even more stunning.
- White Lehengas
Lehengas in neutral hues such as white, off-white and beige are gaining popularity. These shades offer an understated, elegant and luxurious feel. Hence, not only bridesmaids but also the brides themselves are opting for these shades, as opposed to the conventional reds and pinks.
The Autumn Leaves Lehenga by designer Anita Dongre makes for a graceful pick to be worn at the wedding by the sister of the bride or the bridesmaids. The whimsical motifs all over the skirt and the bralette style choli can be enhanced by adding gold jewelry.
- Printed Lehengas
Printed lehengas are not only in trend but they are extremely comfortable too, as they come without heavy embellishments that tend to weigh you down. These lehengas are available in a variety of prints including floral and geometric and can be re-worn on many occasions other than weddings. When paired with the right type of jewellery and makeup, printed lehengas make for the perfect outfits for wedding functions.
Featuring wildflower-printed lehenga and a subtle choli, the Flamingo Paradise Lehenga Set by designer Anita Dongre is made of sustainable fabrics and can be worn on Mehendi or Haldi function. It also has pockets to help you store your essentials so you can enjoy the celebrations with ease.
- Vibrant and Unconventional colours
Modern brides are taking the traditional lehengas up a notch by selecting vibrant and even multi-coloured bridal lehenga designs. The lehengas preserve the traditional touch with their embellishments even when the colours are experimented with.
