The Mehandi, one of the earliest events in the wedding program, frequently sets the tone for the celebrations that come after. The Mehandi, a laid-back opening ceremony for the celebrations, is the ideal occasion for brides to deviate from the traditional extravagant look and try something new. We don’t blame you if you’re worried about your Mehandi dress because building a successful bridal wardrobe is a huge effort.

Lehengas are the clear choice for brides who can’t get enough of twirl-friendly attire. But experiment with more modern styles that you couldn’t wear to your other events, like the sangeet or pheras. Consider wearing a contemporary cropped shirt top with a conventional Benarasi or Lucknowi lehenga. Mehandis and cape lehengas go together like peaches and cream in terms of fashion; the attire doesn’t interfere with henna application and is comfortable to move around in.

Jumpsuit

An ethnic jumpsuit is a way to go if you want to be on trend. In addition to keeping you comfy so you can dance all night, a jumpsuit with plenty of embroidery and embellishments will make you seem stylish.

Palazzo and crop top set

Indian-Western is now in style. Choose a shrug over a crop top and a palazzo set instead. As it could be difficult to carry the shrug while holding Mehendi, you can also remove it.

Lehengas

Prevent overly decorated lehengas and go for a plain bandhani lehenga to avoid going overboard at a Mehendi ceremony. With borders and simple decoration, you may also add your own distinctive touch.
