Your wedding dress is probably the most thought out and more often than not, also one of the most expensive outfit of your life. But what happens to it after your wedding day? Almost always, it is carefully stored in a box and locked up in your cupboard. Well, it needn’t be anymore because there is a plethora of sustainable ways to recycle and reuse the wedding lehenga and we have compiled the top ways to do just that! We are listing below just for you the ways in which you can reutilize your Lehenga and avoid making it a once in a blue moon outfit.
So, simply do not hesitate to invest in this dreamy attire as with our list of sustainable re-uses of lehenga, all you need to worry about is to choose from the choices we have for you!
This is not an idea for the brides only but for those who invest in this ethnic piece for a friend or relatives' wedding. Just like other Indian outfits, the Lehenga holds a special place in every girl's heart, either that be Bridal crop top lehenga or regular lehenga suit. Even when you do not repeat your outfit.
If you have a lehenga with a lot of flare, get rid of some of the excess volume- since you don't want to be competing with the bride! That will also make the lehenga lighter and easier to wear, plus will not give it such a bridal look. So, you can begin with removing the Can-can of the lehenga to make it a little lighter, and you can drop one out of the two dupattas you wore on your wedding and instead only use a single dupatta by draping it in a trendy manner. Club this look with light or minimal jewellery to tone down the look and make subtle and chic at the same time!
Mostly bridal lehengas are pretty, but not so trendy in terms of silhouettes. So, you can get a trendy plain blouse stitched and rock that lehenga skirt again- say with an off-shoulder or strappy blouse!Or, you can pair it with a shirt, wearing a shirt with a lehenga immediately makes the outfit look both casual and trendy, it also is a perfect way to balance out the bling - add a white shirt and wear it. A simple hack here is to get a white shirt as it goes well with every pattern, colour and fabric. To further jazz up the look, you can go for an unconventional shirt, maybe with some tassels and pleats.During the wedding, if you were not able to experiment as much as you wanted to, then here is your chance. Pair your lehenga with a crop top, a bodice or tops with unconventional necklines. Any funky top can be used if the colour combination is good.
You can team your Lehenga with a long Kurtis and find that you can still wear your bridal Lehenga. Only that it is in a different context and style. This style is in vogue right now in the fashion world. Plus, if you have not put on much weight and you can still wear your Lehenga choose this trendy style. Chiffon net Kurti with a front slit teamed with your Lehenga is a stunning look and one way to reutilize your bridal Lehenga.
You can stitch the blouse along with the skirt and wear it as a floor-length Anarkali. This completely changes the look of the outfit. This way of transforming your bridal Lehenga is a unique one that is attractive as well. It is simple to achieve this floor-length Anarkali style by tailoring your choli to the Lehenga.
Who said you have to wear the entire lehenga set whenever you do? Style it with a leather jacket or wear the skirt with a long kurti- play around with options a bit, and you might come up with something you like! Heavy dupatta with a plain salwar kameez, the embellished skirt with a plain blouse and heavy blouse with a plain saree or raw silk skirt like a crop top and skirt- voila!
