It’s no surprise that despite the alarming smog levels, wedding season continues to boom as if nothing ever happened. Sure, we all complain about the endless functions and the baggage they bring (P.S.: the aunties constantly asking, “So, when is it your turn?”), but let’s be honest—fashion enthusiasts like us secretly live for this! There’s something magical in the air: the whoosh of twirling lehengas, the saree drapes elegantly sweeping the dance floor, and each event feels like our own mini-Met Gala.
But if you’re expecting us to serve up another predictable set of “been there, done that” outfits, think again. For this feature, we dug deep to curate a lineup of muted-toned ensembles that perfectly suit the season. These pieces won’t steal the spotlight from the bride, but they’ll ensure you stand out with their distinctive silhouettes and subtle flair. It’s all about making a statement without overshadowing the celebration—think understated elegance that lets you shine in your own unique way. Scroll down for the wedding guest guide of the season.
This Misha Lakhani pinched skirt with a wrap stole is the outfit of our LITERAL dreams. The wrap boasts kashmiri embroidery while the skirt adds the contemporary edge we cant get enough of.
This beige Faiza Saqlain outfit with intricate embroidery on the borders paired with a crisp plain silk shirt and embroidered organza duppatta is a perfect wedding guest outfit. Also, that potli bag is such a cute addition.
Picture it: A stunning sundowner against the winter sun on a lush green landscape with understated elegance being the anchor to the event, this Ammara Khan cream kaaftan will fit right in with the mood.
This Ansab Jahangir saree is redefining old world glamour while living up to the contemporary old money requests as well. The details, the fabric, the aura- this one’s a head turner.
So, as you gear up for this wedding season, remember that style isn’t always about the loudest colors or the boldest looks. Sometimes, it’s about a graceful drape, a unique silhouette, or a muted tone that lets you stand out while blending into the celebration.
