Bridal fashion trends this season

The Indian wedding has undergone sweeping changes and, therefore, wedding dresses have also witnessed a sea change. Gone are the days when brides used to shop for their trousseau from a local shop in a single visit. Now, it's a different story. Brides, and even grooms, are choosy, and the collection of local shops finds it hard to please them.
The selection of bridal wear eats up a hell of a lot of time, as the bridal ensemble would play an important part on that crucial day. This is the reason brides today turn to designer wear and fashion designers are in great demand when the wedding season is in full swing.
There is no doubt that a wedding demands a lot of preparation and, hence, many expenses. While your groom and your wedding planner are leaving no stone unturned to make the D-day memorable, you are also topsy-turvy as to what you should wear on the big day.
But, your worries end here. Some of the famous fashion designers are here to tell you about your bridal dressing, what is hot and not in Indian wedding dressing. Moreover, the biggest myth about bridal dressing is about to be shattered.
Colors and Trends
Forget what your friends wore in the last season. This year, everything is new from colors to trends. However, it's a back-to-basics culture. Brides are just crazy for traditional colors. US-based fashion designer and founder of SilkThreads, Ruby Bhandari, says, "I think that brides are finally going back to the traditional colors of reds, rusts, and maroons in the winters and pinks, creams, and golds in the hotter weather. For a little while, brides were trying to be 'high fashion' and chose colors like purples, blues, and greens, but now, I think that new brides are beginning to realize that the more traditional colors are what make them look and feel like a queen (which they are on their wedding day)".
"The colors to watch out for this season are metallics like antique gold, platinum, pewter, champagne, bronze, and copper," says Anita Dongre, a Mumbai-based fashion designer. This is a very neutral color palette and suits all skin colors. Bright colors are also very much in fashion, like raspberry, aubergine, crimson, tangerine, and brighter pastels like aquamarine, salmon, mint, and butter yellow. A hot trend to follow is ombre shading for saris, skirts, and dupattas for a more stylish look.
