Just in time for the wedding season, the couture shows this season came bearing some of the most distinct, contemporary trends for occasion wear. If you're tying the knot or are a guest, keep these trends in mind when choosing your outfits.
Capes: Ditch the fussy dupatta for an embellished cape. Perfect for winter weddings, capes are great options to stay warm at an event where you will be photographed a lot without freezing. Add drama to it with a statement necklace.

Embroidered jackets: There's something instantly regal about wearing a full-length embroidered jacket. They are ideal for cocktail events where you can socialize, hold your drink and move around with ease. Pair it with a pair of cigarette pants with your hair slicked back for maximum impact.

Gowns: If you're the dreamy sort who loves a good floor-scraper, add a gown when shopping for your trousseau. Play with skirt volumes, necklines and prints (never all at once) for a crazy night of revelry.

Palatial bride: If a destination wedding at a palace is your scene, then it’s essential you dress to go with the vibe. Think deep maroons, double dupattas, zarodzi embroidery go all out.

Sheer Florals: Wear your floarls with a hint of sexy. Dare to go sheer for after parties but still stay in the ethnic vien with a floral skirt or a sari.

Vintage colours: Take a break from sun colours and go with pale blues, mint green, beige and tones of blush for a fresh look. This works great for sangeet and mehendi events.

Weaves: Go back to your roots and add some textile to your look for the big day. Try jamavar lehengas and chanderi dupattas to add a touch of old world elegance to your ensemble.
