Indian weddings are transforming the world of fashion and knowing what to wear and how to style yourself as a guest can be daunting, especially for those who have not yet experienced such festivities. Events can be super extravagant, and there is an incredible array of gorgeous saris, mesmerising lehengas, stylish salwar kameez, sherwani, kurta pyjamas, and more.
Whether you are a seasoned attendee, or this is the first time you’ve been invited to an Indian wedding, you’ll want to get it right, so we have consulted Amrika London, the online fashion emporium who specialise in seeking out luxury designers from both Europe and South Asia. They have pulled together five perfect pieces for the ultimate wedding guest look for 2024.
A PRE-DRAPE CHIFFON SARI
You never go wrong with a sari, especially a colourful silhouette that is elegantly finished. We love the fringe details on this coral/orange piece by Mahima Mahajan as the metallic threadwork really lifts the look. It's so stunning you basically don't need to worry about any additional accessories, perhaps just a jewelled necklace for that extra touch.
AN EMBROIDERED KURTA
If you are looking for something a little more understated but equally beautiful, this Kurta set from Payal Singhal offers a classic silhouette and the contemporary design is finished with a coral lace border Dupatta. Super chic, easy to wear and something you can go back to time and time again.
A BOLD SARI
When it comes to finding something different, look no further than this leopard print sari by ITRH. This stunning ensemble is a contemporary twist on a classic which is so different. We love the magnificent matching blouse
TURN HEADS IN AN ORGANZA SET
If you really want to make a statement, this silhouette has proven to be a best-seller time and time again. The Maelyn by Ridhi Mehra in this fantastic fuchsia colour, cinches the organza overlay jacket with a stunning jewel belt and is rich in beautiful detail.
A SHOWSTOPPING JUMPSUIT
You can never go wrong with something blue at a wedding, and especially a jumpsuit. This stunning powder blue number by Ridhi Mehra is one of our all-time favourites. We love the one-shoulder design, the maxi dress silhouette, the embellished jewelled belt and all of those ruffles.
