5 Brands That We’re Loving For Minimalistic Brides Right Now!
Because not all brides like to dress up like a christmas tree—some prefer dressing up like a dreamy sunset on a lazy Sunday afternoon!
We’ve seen all kinds of brides—brides who honour their roots through heirloom pieces, brides who look like they’ve stepped out of a period drama, brides who chase trends before they go mainstream, brides who keep it conscious and sustainable—and then there are brides who choose quiet over loud, and simplicity over drama. The minimalistic brides. Brides who do not want to look like a Christmas tree, and keep things very understated. Brides who do not want to be weighed down by their outfit, but to be embraced by it. Their beauty lies in their simplicity—clean silhouettes, rich fabrics, effortlessness, and attention to detail. In a world of “more is more”, these brides remind us that you do not have to be loud to make a statement. It could be anything, from a new, pristine handloom saree, to a decade-old red saree her grandmother wore to her wedding, or a basic Kasavu saree, or a simple khadi lehenga. Or even a handwoven kurta. It doesn’t matter what a minimalistic bride chooses to wear, as long as she resonates with the outfit. Extra brownie points if she’s being mindful towards the planet while she’s at it!
Our Picks For The Top 5 Brands For Minimalistic Brides
If you are one such bride, and would like to embrace minimalism on your big day, here are the top 5 brands to look at.
Aikeyah
Aikeyah is our favourite brand when it comes to minimalistic, easy, and romantic Indian outfits. But mind you, it is an acquired taste! If you have a penchant for seemingly simple garments with surprisingly elaborate details, we would suggest this dreamy, incredibly feminine brand.
Raw Mango
If you’re dreaming of a minimalistic bridal look, there is a pretty good chance you’ve already considered handloom sarees and lehengas (we highly recommend it if you haven’t already). Raw Mango is the brand for the It-brand that does handloom garments for the modern minimalistic bride.
Akaaro
Akaaro by Gaurav Jai Gupta might not be a conventional choice for brides, but we strongly recommend it for brides who want to keep things super cool and fuss-free. Not to forget, it’s always a good idea to embrace sustainability and slow fashion as a bride!
Re-ceremonial
Speaking of sustainability, another brand we’re loving for the conscious bride is Re-ceremonial. Upcycled textiles, plant-based dyes, and locally sourced fabrics, you can not miss are-ceremonial as a minimalistic bride who wants to embrace slow fashion.
Anavila
Slow fashion and quiet luxury lies at the core of Anavila. Back when all we knew was extravagance, Anavila introduced India to festive linen sarees .Not only is this brand mindful, but incredibly dreamy in terms of aesthetics!
