Some brides may have the exact vision of their dream wedding look, from designer to silhouette. Some may have an idea about an aspect or two, whereas some may not even know where to start. Whatever the situation, finding all options under one roof can be a task. It’s why Divya Seth Suri opened doors to Bridal Trunk By Divya in January 2021. Today, the multi-brand boutique in London houses the latest collections from note-worthy Indian couturiers including Falguni Shane Peacock, Rimple & Harpreet, Anita Dongre, Dolly J, Payal Keyal, Papa Don't Preach by Shubhika, Aisha Rao, Ridhi Mehra and Seema Gujral among others.
“There is a lot of sentiment attached to the bridal outfit, and the designers we stock have a concept of producing designs that can be cascaded down the generations. They are not just trending pieces, but in a way, a projection of the bride's identity and empowerment,” shares Divya.
Ahead, we've picked some of the best traditional and modern bridal wear pieces from Bridal Trunk By Divya that you'll find at The Khush Wedding Show.
Traditional Picks
If you consider yourself as a bride who prefers all things traditional, consider classic palettes, designs and crafts. Speaking of silhouettes, lehenga still reigns supreme. When it comes to colours, you can’t go wrong with red and its secondary colours like maroon and orange. Gold and other jewel tones like emerald and yellow are fantastic choices too. Craft wise, resham embroidery, zardozi and aari work are time-honoured. The beauty about a time-honoured creation lies in its versatility and the fact that it will never go out of style. You can wear your bridal lehenga as is or mix and match the skirt and blouse for years to come.
Modern Cuts
Brides, who are looking to make waves with a standout look, the choices are plenty. You don’t have to go completely out-of-the-box—picking an unusual colour is the easiest way to make heads turn. From a metallic shade to pastel palettes, there’s no dearth of options. Jade green, beige, silver and ivory are some of the most flattering choices. Pantone Colour Of The Year 2024, Peach Fuzz is also a winner for a daytime ceremony. A printed piece is great for the bride who wants to prioritise comfort. Go with a ballgown skirt or a mermaid style for something more modern. You can also opt for playful sleeves.
"Our concept is style-based shopping, where we provide personalised one-on-one bridal styling service. We believe in creating exclusive brides, by understanding our clients' vision and planning their looks keeping their mood board, budget and trends in mind.
