For those of us who are not used to the complex drape of the saree, the lehenga is a fine substitute. It has all the traditional opulence of, say, a Banarasi or a Baluchari silk, and has been great favourite with modern brides who want to achieve a look that is exotic and regal. The lehenga comprises of three pieces - a long loosely flowing skirt, a choli, and an ample odhni. The ensemble you see on this page is replete with all three fashioned from pure homegrown silk. It is the skirt that adds the most personality to a lehenga ensemble, and the one you see on this page would make you the subject of conversations everywhere.

The ample pleats alone would make this a statement addition to your wardrobe or even trousseau. Ample brocade-work graces its gorgeous length, filled in with a definitive variety of motifs - gold tendrils with paisleys against the dark blue of the foundation, an infusion of petals in gorgeous bridal pinks and oranges, and panels of lilies and lotuses in matching colours all the way down to the hem. The choli has similar gold motifs in matching dark blue. The signature pink dupatta complements the base colour of the lehenga. It is so long it reaches the hem of the skirt, while the translucent silk it is made from is dyed a colour no woman or bride could go wrong with.
