Indo-Western silhouettes have become a wedding wardrobe favourite. These ensembles allow you to stay stylish, comfortable and chic all night long, and without weighing you down. Whether you’re a bride-to-be or have a social calendar filled with weddings to attend, a traditional outfit with modern appeal is a wardrobe MVP. Searching for the perfect outfit and getting the right fit may seem like an ordeal in the present time. But who said you can’t mix and match separates from your wardrobe to create a stellar outfit? We suggest pulling out those lehengas and your favourite corsets to dial up the sexy quotient. Yes, wearing corset blouses with lehengas will ensure you’re on the right side of the hot list. If you’d like to join the bandwagon, take inspiration from these Bollywood celebrities.
A Royal Touch
Sara Ali Khan might be one of the newcomers, but her sense of style is on point. Elegant and sophisticated perfectly define her choice. Laying her trust in a Manish Malhotra ensemble, she adds a refreshing corset blouse to the otherwise conventional lehenga skirt. The dash of drama created with the sleeve makes the combination look anything but basic. A risqué blouse with a lehenga featuring huge floral motifs in the colour of the season will make your cocktail outfit a definitive winner.
Turn Up The Heat
Tara Sutaria has caught everyone’s attention with her impeccable fashion sense. The actor tastefully pairs every outfit to make it look unique. She gets the mercury soaring with this off-shoulder corset blouse paired with a delicate lehenga, both by Sabyasachi. Who thought something so simple could look so grand? Doubling up as the perfect bridesmaid outfit for a sangeet function or a pre-wedding look, it’s time to add this to your wardrobe.
Minimalistic Route
If you’re looking for an ensemble that brings together minimalism with a high fashion quotient, look no further than this Monika Nidhi number worn by Sonakshi Singh. A solid lehenga and corset blouse is paired with an intricately embellished cape adding grace. The best part? You can even mix and match the cape to create a new outfit. We’d place our bets on a mehndi occasion to ensure the outfit shines bright.
Understated Elegance
This effortless and fuss-free outfit on Shilpa Shetty Kundra makes for the perfect for a bridesmaids pick. Shantanu and Nikhil’s bright pink colour will ensure all eyes are on you, while its pre-draped edgy silhouette means you it is easy to move around in. If you wish to dress it up, statement earrings with a matching choker will do the trick. A corset bustier blouse with a sari is the perfect combination of modern and traditional.
Black Beauty
No matter what Diana Penty’s pick, she always stands out. Looking ethereal in this black lehenga, she shows us that keeping it basic is always a good idea. If neutrals is your preferred choice, then look no further. Punctuated with accents of red and silver, whether you’re a wedding guest or the sister of the bride, this one is a versatile pick.
Bling-It-On
Brides who don’t shy away from bold, eclectic choices, we’ve found you the ideal reception outfit. Scoring high on glamour, this Manish Malhotra silhouette is a crowd pleaser. Adding much drama is the off-shoulder sheer corset-style blouse—a silhouette that is sexy and sassy. We can’t decide our favourite, but can you?
