We don’t know about you, but we are in our comfy era. We’re loving outfits with easy, relaxed silhouettes, like kaftans, oversized kurtas, and pre-draped saris. Another thing that we’re loving right now is subdued, minimal embroidery. And you what the best wedding function for channelling this effortless energy is? Haldi! Colours like butter yellow, warm ochre, and mustard, and even bright chrome yellow, amalgamated with easy, comfy silhouettes, look super stunning. If you are a bridesmaid-to-be looking for your haldi outfit right now, read on.
When it comes to dressing for a haldi, you can not go wrong with a kaftan. Our pick is this beautiful, effortless muslin kaftan from Sureena Chowdhri. We’re loving how elegant and subdued it is, with an easy silhouette and minimal threadwork embroidery.
Speaking of things you can never go wrong with, you can also opt for a classic, plain sari with a broad border. Our pick is this pretty silk sari from Vinita Bhansali. We would style it with a sleek middle-parted updo, minimal make-up, polki jewellery, and an embroidered potli bag.
Or, if you’re looking for something more fun and glam, we would suggest this concept sari from Aisha Rao. We love the iridescent effect on the drape, and the quirky, playful bralette.
Another great option if you want to take the glam route, is this beautiful corset and skirt set from Dolly J. We really like the visible boning and contrast embroidery on the corset, and the relaxed silhouette of the skirt.
If you want to take the indo-western route, we would suggest this set from Anita Dongre. It’s minimal, effortless, and sexy. We also love how delicate and intricate the motifs are.
Our next pick is this beautiful anarkali set from Ridhi Mehra. It comes with a front slit, fine embroidery, and a skinny dupatta. The best part though? It’s backless!
