Unique and Trendy Ways of Styling Heavy Bridal Dupatta
Over the years, fashion designers have been playing around with the draping styles of the bridal dupattas, and brides quickly joined the bandwagon. Some brides set themselves as trendsetters with various styling tips. Here are some handpicked styles for draping the heavy bridal dupatta on the D-day.
Sari style drape
The sari-style drape has become a popular choice for the brides and the attendees. The drape is a hassle-free option and got its name from resembling the look of a sari. The drape starts from the back, going across as a pallu on one shoulder. The ease of the drape makes it a popular option for styling a heavy bridal dupatta.
Pakistani style drape
If your bridal pallu has a heavy border, the Pakistani-style drape is the best option. The flowy layers of the dupatta cover parts of your facial and neck area, diverting all the attention towards the bride's face.
Double dupatta style
Wearing a double dupatta is a modern concept, and almost every bride opts for the style. However, if you are looking for a regal look, you can drape two dupattas- one covering the head and the other one draped like a sari. Alternatively, you can drape one dupatta in the Nivi style, pull the corner at the front, and the other, in the Gujarati style, and place it on the head.
The Gujarati style
Nothing can beat the Gujarati style draping when traditionally styling your bridal dupatta. It is an elegant way of styling the dupatta, highlighting the intricate work on the dupattas. To make a style statement, pair your heavy bridal dupatta with a light blouse, and complement the look with the traditional draping style.
