Finding that all those perfect outfits for the number of ceremonies preceding a BFF’s wedding is definitely a massive feat, especially when the big day is just around the corner. How to figure it all out, you ask? By not leaving it for the eleventh hour and getting prepped well in advance. Speaking of preparations on the sartorial front, nothing could be more failsafe than taking a leaf out of your favourite Bollywood celebrities’ wedding guest-ready closet. And we have proof!
Bollywood Inspired Outfits For Your Friend’s Pre-Wedding Festivities
From a lavish mehendi OOTD to one for that cocktail party, it’s all in here. Scroll for the sartorial inspiration that will ensure all eyes are on you!
The Haldi
That yellow is the go-to colour for this pre-wedding ceremony is a fact well known but if you are treading that way, make sure that you give way to interesting silhouettes in your outfit. Choose a contemporary dress like Alaya F’s embroidered dress or go the Indian wear route with a saree and a new-age blouse like Mira Kapoor. Scroll ahead for looks and shoppable options.
The Mehendi
For those of you who wish to give solid greens a miss, experiment with related shades like teal and emerald. Make way for prints in an interesting co-ord set like Disha Patani’s stellar sharara or make heads turn by picking a glittering multi-hued attire like Janhvi Kapoor—it’s all about making a statement! Some striking beauty finds wouldn’t hurt either.
The Cocktail
We don’t blame you for wanting to pull out all the stops for this one in bold and edgy picks and just in time for you to take notes, we brought some stellar finds. Make heads turn in a high-octane red saree like Jacqueline Fernandez, adding a modern blouse and some jewels into the mix to further elevate it. And if its a black ensemble you would rather wear, we are vouching for Kiara Advani’s chic outfit with details to spare.
The Sangeet
A night (or day) of dancing calls for dressing up to the nines in your best and for that, we suggest going that extra mile. Ditch the dupatta for a fuss-free lehenga and blouse, adding an embellished jacket to the mix if you wish to stand out from the crowd. For a minimal approach, there’s always the option of replacing the voluminous separate with a printed skirt. Scroll down to take a leaf out of Ananya Panday and Sonam Kapoor’s stunning ensembles for your BFF’s pre-wedding function.
Miscellaneous
And because the big fat Indian wedding is a huge affair, keeping an outfit or two handy wouldn’t hurt either. High-octane separates and draped outfits as seen on Malaika Arora and Shilpa Shetty are bound to make for a great look—add either to the cart and be ready to step out in style anytime, anywhere.
Go on, plan your looks in advance.
