## Kiara Advani’s Wedding Season Wardrobe: A Modern Twist on Tradition
Kiara Advani is the ultimate style icon for those seeking to embrace Indian wear with a modern twist. As the wedding season kicks into high gear, her wardrobe is a treasure trove of inspiration, offering a fresh perspective on traditional silhouettes.
Corset Tops: The New Blouse
Say goodbye to the mundane kurta and blouse! Kiara has embraced the corset top as the new essential for destination weddings. Her structured and figure-accentuating sari at Manish Malhotra’s Diwali soiree featured a velvety dusty pink textured mini corset, proving that traditional attire can be both elegant and edgy. She further elevated this trend with a corset bodice paired with a pre-draped skirt designed by Pakistani designer Faraz Manan at Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s Shubh Aashirwad ceremony. This dazzling creation, adorned with glass beads, pearls, and crystals, is perfect for cocktail parties and sangeets.
Pre-Draped Saris: Effortless Elegance
The sari remains a universally flattering silhouette, but the traditional draping can be time-consuming and cumbersome. Enter the pre-draped sari, a convenient and stylish alternative for destination weddings. Manish Malhotra’s pre-draped saree, featuring his signature sequins and shimmers in hues of gold, adds drama with an elongated pallu. For a more demure look, consider ASAGA’s emerald-toned pre-draped outfit, which combines mirror work and sequined blouse with a plain skirt in the same jewel tone.
Lightweight Lehengas: Redefining the Wedding Essential
Lehengas are a staple for wedding attendees, but the heavy cancan and intricate embroidery can often be overwhelming. Kiara’s choice of lightweight lehengas provides a refreshing alternative. Monika Nidhi’s sublime yellow lehenga set features a V-neck plunging blouse with mirror work and a weightless skirt with minimal Aari embroidery and mirror work. For morning festivities, Anita Dongre’s multicoloured printed lehenga, adorned with flamingo and lemon motifs, paired with a printed blue and white spaghetti strap blouse and oversized meenakari chaanbali earrings by Tyaani, is the perfect choice.
Comfortable Cape and Jacket Sets: Lazy Lass Approved
Cape and jacket co-ordinated sets are a favorite for their comfort and style. These three-piece sets typically include a flattering cape or jacket, a bustier-like blouse, and sharara, dhoti, or palazzo pants. Ridhima Bhasin’s ivory co-ord set, featuring timeless tone-on-tone embroidery and pearl work, is a versatile addition to any wedding guest wardrobe. Rishi and Vibhuti’s shrug set, with a floor-length shrug adorned with navy sequins and tassels paired with floral printed flared bottoms, is ideal for a bohemian beachy occasion. For a bolder look, the sultry multi-coloured bikini-styled blouse is a statement piece with varying sequins, embellishments, and tassels in a range of colors.
