Lehenga tendency For 2022 Brides

1. Anarkali shape
While there are several new trends in bridal lehengas like asymmetrical hems or bodycon skirts, the one design that will never go out of trend is the a-line lehenga or the 'Anarkali Silhouette'.
Traditional and stunning, this is a style several millennial brides have embraced due to their unending charm. Also, the feeling of twirling in this flared outfit is just extraordinary!

2. Technicolour Lehenga Choli
For all the 90s kids out there technicolour is a name that is bound to gather nostalgia. Not only is this retro trend close to our hearts but has also been verified to look like a million bucks when embodied in bridal lehengas.
Designer Amit Aggarwal particularly channels this pattern in his work and has been at the forefront of this trend. And we're convinced brides in 2022 will continue to take up these metallic technicolour silhouettes!

3. Stunning Trails
A broad lehenga trail, no issue with the length, can add a beautiful queen-like vibe to your marriage look. There are so many designers and couture brands nowadays that have begun expanding these sweeping trails in their lehenga designs.
And brides are all about them we're predicting a boom in this trend and hoping to see more dramatic lehenga trails in 2022.

4. White & Off-White Lehenga Choli
When it comes to Indian marriages, we're used to bridal lehengas in colours like red, pink, maroon and orange the most. Regardless, with time traditions have developed and so has the mindset of the people behind weddings. Therefore, we're witnessing a surge in brides' options to dress in white designer bridal lehenga for their weddings. Aesthetic and gorgeous, white bridal lehengas may be unique, but they sure do shine the most outstanding with their whimsical elements.

5. Printed Lehengas For Pre-Wedding Events
When it comes to selecting between style and comfort brides have been opting for the latter, particularly for their pre-wedding functions. Saving the big fairytale vibes for their marriage day, more and more brides are selecting printed lehengas for their pre-wedding functions like Mehendi, sangeet and haldi. And just because these lehengas are more comfortable doesn't mean that they're not stunning.
If anything printed lehengas manage to catch our eyes more for their off-beat colours and vibrant prints. Also, they're the easiest to reuse after weeding. So, we're wishing to see more brides select sustainable, printed latest Indian lehenga designs for their pre-wedding purposes in 2022.

6. Vibrant & Unique Colours
Bridal lehengas just keep shocking us again and again. Brides are either going for the traditional red lehengas or taking us by wonder with completely off-beat colours like yellow, orange or turquoise blue.
There's just no in-between anymore and artistic designers are performing everything they can to accommodate the new age bride with their stunning designs in unique colours. Entirely, if you're tired of neutrals, red or pastels, these different and unique colours are just for you!

7. Shimmer Stays Modern
Whether it's mirror work, sequins or metallic needlework, shimmer in every form is going to be a famous choice amongst brides in 2022. And the best part about these lehengas is that you can get yourself a custom made dress from almost every designer and couture brand.
You deserve to shine on your big day and that's exactly why a shimmering latest wedding lehenga should be your top preference!

8. Heavy Net For The Princess Look
Honestly, what's a bridal lehenga without a big amount of fluff and flair? And that's all thankfulness to the can-can stuffed underneath the skirt's layers. This simple net adds the perfect proportion of volume to your lehenga, giving you the perfect princess feel on your special day!
This trend gives an exhilarating effect to your outfit and goes best with flowy material like georgette, chiffon or crepe, allowing you to comfortably move about without the can-can causing regulation and letting you live in the moment gloriously!

9. The 'Blurple' Addiction
2022 is the year of the Pantone hue 'Very Peri' or as we mundanely call it, 'Blurple'! For the first time in 22 years, Pantone has created a whole new shade entirely and named it the Pantone colour for 2022. And this energetic colour is sure to make heads turn.
Now although not the same shade, we've already seen actress Anushka Ranjan wow us with similar colours on her wedding day and we're waiting for more brides to embrace this stunning pastel shade in the coming year!

10. Pastels & Floral Needlework
Pastel lehenga designs have been a raging tendency for the past few years and we know for a fact that it is here to stay. And pastel lehengas with floral embroideries are downright extraordinary.
While many brides in 2022 chose this mixture, we're expecting many more to rock pastel stylish party wear lehenga with floral embroideries, particularly for their pre-wedding functions!

11. Maximalist Outfits Reign Supreme
While minimalism is something that western brides cherish, Indian brides are more inclined toward maximalist ensembles that give them a majestic vibe. With the pandemic, the visitor list has shrunk and the decor and the theme of the weddings have humbled down as well, but the lehengas and the jewellery that looks after them are all about showing off the maximalist style of Indian culture.

12. Gold Lehengas
Gold is going to work really generously for 2022 brides because it's something that can carry you from your wedding to your afterparty. Relatively than the dozen events that made up a wedding, couples have started downsizing their celebrations to more meaningful, intimate ceremonies.
And golden lehenga is a versatile outfit that a bride can carry straight from their mandap to their reception without having to change their dresses.


Wedding Lehenga Best Material

Selecting the best fabric for lehenga, you can never go wrong with silk and velvet for a winter wedding. Both of them add a magnificent touch to it. The best part of these fabrics is that they look beautiful with less embroidery too because of the fabric’s nature which is too glossy itself.

  • Lehenga fabric should be suitable as per your venue.
  • Fabric must be suitable as per climate types too.
