Traditional costumes are likely to have a monopoly when it comes to the sartorial line-up on your big day. It’s reasonable to say that after embracing traditional finery for your wedding ceremony and the celebrations leading up to it, brides’ desire to slip into an ensemble that bears their personal imprint is understandable. Whether you choose a ball gown for your princess moment, a magnificent lehenga in an unusual color to make a statement, or a curve-hugging pre-draped sari to create a show-stopping silhouette, the wedding reception is the perfect opportunity to personalize your clothing. If you’re seeking inspiration, go no further than celebrity weddings.
The celebs have already given us much to ponder, from Anushka Sharma’s traditional reception attire to Sonam Kapoor Ahuja’s experimental take on the classic lehenga and Deepika Padukone’s gorgeous crimson gown. On December 21, 2017, Anushka Sharma wore a vermilion Sabyasachi Benarasi sari to her wedding celebration in New Delhi’s Taj Diplomatic Enclave. In an interview, Sabyasachi Mukherjee said, “I don’t think Indian brides feel complete without wearing the color red is one of their functions.” Anushka chose crimson for her wedding reception. And it would be a crimson Benarasi sari, much to my joy.
For her reception, Sonam Kapoor Ahuja wore a bespoke creation by Anamika Khanna, a monochrome chevron striped cape lehenga set as she is known for her non-conformist sartorial choices. For her reception, Deepika Padukone wore a floor-length crimson gown by Beirut-based designer Zuhair Murad. The Padmaavat actress wore an outfit with a detachable skirt and a red veil to make the appearance more theatrical.
