What to Wear
Overview
For many of us, this may be our first Indian Fusion Wedding. We would love to provide insight on what to expect for attire and also give you suggestions on where you can easily find the outfits!
Outfits Terminology:
• A colorful saree, which is an elaborately tied drape of fabric that is worn from the shoulders to the ankles, covering one or both of your arms. This may be very difficult to wear if you are not used to it.
• A lehenga is another popular option, but unlike a saree, this is typically a two-piece outfit consisting of a crop top and full skirt. This is a more simple option compared to saree and super easy to wear!
• A sharara, which is a type of suit featuring wide-leg, palazzo-style pants and a matching tunic top (sometimes called a kurti or kurta). The set is typically decorated with sparkly beading, brocade patterns, and embroidery. Similar to a lehenga, this is also very easy to wear.
Men can wear either a long-sleeved tunic (kurti) or a knee-length jacket (called a sherwani) with matching pants. Both men and women’s clothes come in dazzling, bright colors with lots of patterns, embellishments, and prints.
Even if you don’t choose to wear traditional Indian wedding attire, bring out your best jewelry and body adornments—bling is a big component of Indian fashion. For women, this could include bangle bracelets, ornate earrings, beaded handbags, or a bindi.
