5 Ways to re-style your Wedding Lehenga

Bridal lehengas are often the most exorbitant element in your wedding expenses, but let’s be honest, the beautiful look is worth every penny. With the current trend of scoring designer wear and couture outfits, most brides would love to re-use their lehengas after the wedding.

Have a look at these excellent ideas and re-style your look with the same lehnga, as many times as you want.

• Flip the charm

The smartest trick to wearing your lehenga casually is to wear the pieces as separates. Team up the heavy choli with a plain silk or brocade skirt or add a quirky quotient to your attire by teaming the lehenga skirt with a white collared shirt or a black backless choli.

• Minimally made up

As a bride, your makeup is conventionally heavy with a dressy veil and you can change that around. Ditch the red lips and opt for nude hues with light accents and minimal styling. For a  breezy and fresh look, let your locks loose with soft curls or a rustic french plait.

• Accessory wise

Go for subtle and simple jewellery when wearing your bridal lehenga again. Keep it basic yet elegant with a single diamond string or a plain gold choker. You can also opt for a single statement piece such as a paasa or earrings to keep your look right.

• Brand new tailoring

If you think that you cannot repeat the heavy look once again, you can also get new pieces made out of your lehenga. Work a sharara bottom or anarkali top made out of the skirt to give it a new avatar. Pair this with a matching kurti or pant and you’re ready with a completely new look.

• Contemporary Cuts

The heavy embroidery on bridal lehengas can be covered up away without hiding their elegant cuts and tailoring by adding a clever jacket, dupatta or long kurti. Wear a long and flowing jacket over your skirt and you’ll be ready for a formal luncheon or wedding function.
