8 Bridesmaids Outfit Ideas To Steal From Alia Bhatt

Like every other millennial, Alia Bhatt has a girl gang she’s completely devoted to. If you follow her on social media, you’ve probably seen her take on the bridesmaid role more than once effortlessly, setting some serious maid-of-honour fashion goals.

Her traditional wear vibe is fun, easy-going, but vibrant and statement-making. She likes to keep it minimal but experiments with colours, cuts and textures. From a sequinned tone-on-tone sari to a pastel pocketed lehenga, here are the top eight looks from Alia’s bridesmaid closet that you can recreate.

1. Handwoven Sari

If you’re planning to take the ethnic sari route, pair a handcrafted sari with a basic blouse and ditch the heavy jewellery for a simple maang-tikka like Alia in this look.

2. Embroidered Gharara

For functions like Haldi, where there are rituals involved, go for an uncomplicated silhouette like this all-yellow set of gharara with minimum embroidery. Style it with a pair of jhumkas and a good braided hairdo for that additional touch of glamour.

3. Printed Kurta Set

Easy-breezy floral kurta set with chandelier earring makes for the perfect roka ensemble. It’s traditional yet contemporary and will look exceptional against all backdrops for those group images.

4. Monotone Lehenga

Go all out for the actual nuptials. If you’re taking the heavy embroidery route, go easy on the volume, but if you’re selecting a monotone outfit, you can twirl away in a big and spacious skirt. Pro tip: Keep your hands free by accessorising a tiny potli bag around your wrist and experiments with your dupatta drape like Alia did.

5. Statement Sari

Get reception ready in a jewel-toned solid coloured sari, or pick any other darker hue of your choice. Pick one with a surface ornamented border and blouse for that festive feel. Swap the earrings for a fitted jadau choker and a mang-tikka, creating a new jewellery combination.

6. Floral Lehenga

Floral marries perfectly with day-light functions like Mehendi and sundowners. Instead of a regular lehenga, wear a flouncy floral skirt with pockets and club it with a ruffled cropped top. Introduce this effortless look for the next time you play the role of a bridesmaid and have a thousand tasks to do.

7. Bejewelled Lehenga

Not better excuse to bring out the gold than the sangeet. Dance the night away in your preferred choice of bling. Gold, metallic or silver, any of these colours will complement the theme of the event. Pair it with minimal jewellery, and you’re good to steal the show.

8. Corset Style Lehenga

Give one of your ensembles for an evening event a fusion spin. Go for an embellished corset and style it with a matching skirt. You can further elevate it with a transparent cape or dupatta, taking a cue from this modern look by Alia.
