We get it, the wedding season’s here in all its glory and the shopping carts and wish lists have been subjected to enough tyranny by the self-proclaimed sartorial maestros of the household. While price, style and theme can be deciding factors, they can also be the limiting factors that could dampen the experience. But it’s also the lack of inspiration that doesn’t get talked about much. Not everyone had a sketchbook with collages of lehengas and saris growing up, pfft.
In case this is a quandary you’ve been facing, we have a roster of celebrity-approved outfits that will lend just the right amount of inspiration to flesh out the mood board this wedding season. Skim through for all the eight looks:
Kareena Kapoor Khan in Anamika Khanna

Elegantly rustic, this deep purple number by Anamika Khanna melds seamlessly with the oxidised jewellery and tops our list with the practicality aspect in question. No unnecessary frills, or tacky add-ons. A must-have this wedding season.
Sobhita in Satya Paul

No one does saris like Sobhita. All eyes on this ‘safari noir’ Satya Paul sari drape that puts all fur coats (faux ones please) and animal print cowl dresses to shame. It’s a statement sans being too brash and the choker brings the whole thing together effortlessly.
Isha Ambani in Sabyasachi

Easily one of my favourite standouts from the grand wedding, this meticulously decked Sabyasachi lehenga is a masterclass in acing the aesthetics of the bygones with a contemporary flair. Impeccable artistry, perfect for the requirements of the wedding season.
Triptii Dimri in Ekaya Banaras

For those infatuated with the sepia-toned filter and vintage glasses, this ’70s Bollywood ‘esque Bhawna Sharma X Ekaya Banaras sari donned by Triptii Dimri could just be the antidote to your ‘what to wear’ woes this wedding season.
Sonam Kapoor in Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla

Shoutout to this body ornament by The Vernacular Modern, worn with a khadi lehenga and dupatta by Abuj Jani Sandeep Khosla – this evocative ensemble would be an obvious hit with those willing to experiment. Albeit slightly more audacious than our usual wedding wardrobes, it’s the star factor that makes it a frontrunner.
Kriti Sanon In Kunal Rawal

While the masses are still conflicted about the look, I lend all my support to this tailored red sari by Kunal Rawal. The half bandhagala blouse and immaculate draping do earn brownie points and warrant the attention of those with a penchant for minimalist designs.
Bhumi Pednekar in Itrh

Bhumi knows her silhouettes well and this velvet cape and ornate choli corroborates this very trait of hers. Well suited for functions like the mehendi or sangeet, this comfy ensemble will serve as the ideal danceable outfit for this wedding season.
Sharvari in Manish Malhotra

A classic MM sheer drape – what’s not to like? For those willing to forgo the colour-me-happy mandate and swap it with the Coco Chanel-approved shade.
