The two-day showcase that was the third edition of the FDCI Manifest Wedding Weekend brought with itself all things weddings, luxury, and a whole lot of fashion. With the crème de la crème of designers coming together, this was the one-stop destination to shop for everything for your (or your loved one’s) big day.
Owing to its impeccable lineup of designers and jewellers, we saw some of the most exquisite pieces that made us want to get married!
And when the best of brands come together to showcase their latest pieces, you are bound to get a pretty clear glimpse of all the trends that will shape the year ahead. So, here are the top trends we spotted at the FDCI Manifest Wedding Weekend!
Top 5 trends spotted at the FDCI Manifest Wedding Weekend
Corsets

If you are following one trend this year, let it be this one! From Roseroom by Isha Jajodia to Tarun Tahiliani and Varun & Nidhika, every designer had their own take on the good old classic, but everyone had them nonetheless! The best part about corsets? They’re flattering on every body type!
Drop Shoulder

Of all the necklines, this one is the most elegant and feminine of them all, in our humble opinion. Petite girlies, wya? BRB, going to channel our inner Belle from Beauty and The Beast!
Pearl
While we saw a lot of interesting types of surface ornamentation this year, one trend that we anticipate becoming huge is pearls (lots of it!). There are a number of ways to embrace this trend. While Suneet Varma had a blouse with pearl embroidery all over it, Tarun Tahiliani chose to have a pallu made entirely with pearls!
Sheer

From corsets to skirts to capes, we saw a lot of sheer at the Wedding Weekend. We’re particularly crushing over Ritu Kumar’s sheer embroidered skirt paired with an embroidered bodysuit.
Red
Not that brides have ever needed a reason to wear red, it's good to know that red isn't going anywhere. From Amit Aggarwal and JJ Valaya to Jayanti Reddy and Rohit Bal, red was hot at the Wedding Weekend this year. While we saw colors like emerald green, ivory, and black, most designers seemed to have embraced red. Even for the menswear, might we add.
