"Indian maharani" outfit


Lehenga-choli-dupatta is ( in my opinion) the most beautiful Indian party anssemble worn on special occasions. Saying in plain English it is a set of a long skirt, a fitted blouse and a shawl. The fabrics used to made such sets are usually silk, brocade, heavy satin and chiffon which are further decorated with metal (sometimes silver or gold) thread embroidery, sequins or stones. On Saturday we were invited to a wedding party that took place in a rather posh place. So I figured my lehenga-choli outfit would be the right choice for the party. It is of black chiffon and the skirt is richly embellished with embroidery and stones which makes it pretty heavy. Wearing this outfit I really feel like an Indian maharani.



I found matching shoes, also black and decorated with some embroidery and stones, and a very matching evening bad made of velvet and embroidered in same style as the lehenga. I also wear bangles, a forehead decoration tika (or bindi) and a nose ring.



I realize that from our European point of view I maybe look like a Christmas tree, all sparkling. But that is the way women dress here for important events. And honestly, I like it and am happy for the opportunity. No way to wear something like this back in Belarus :)


Linking up with Patti's Visible Monday.
And here are a few photos from the event itselt

That's all for today. Have a great day!

  8. The South Asians do know how to embellish themselves and their garments so well. The colour of the gold goes so well with your hair.

    I just love the shoes. They also look like they would be comfortable.

    Also does the watch have a serpent on it? Wow.

  28. I absolutely agree with you! Lehenga-choli-dupatta is undeniably the most stunning Indian ensemble for special occasions. Your black chiffon lehenga with intricate embroidery and stones sounds breathtaking. It must have made you feel like an Indian maharani at the wedding party. The matching shoes, evening bag, bangles, forehead decoration, and nose ring must have added the perfect touch of elegance. From our European perspective, you might resemble a sparkling Christmas tree, but I believe it's a wonderful way to dress for important events. Embracing different cultural styles is truly enriching.
