How to Pick the Right Colour

Certain tips should be kept in mind so that you can pick the right saree colour. First and foremost, always match the saree shade with your skin tone. Deeper colours, such as green and maroon, for fair women, colours like peach and mustard for women with medium skin tone, and earthy shades like brown, rust, and olive green for dark-skinned women.

Sarees in dark shades look amazing during night weddings, whereas light hues are a perfect option for daytime events, giving a natural and radiant look. To stay updated with the latest fashion trends, take inspiration from the trending bridal lehenga colour options and make your choices accordingly. Last but not least, always check the colour in natural light as colour may look different under artificial lights.

Easy Styling Tips

The right styling tips give the royal Banarasi sarees an uber classy look. Opt for blouse styles like backless, off shoulder or halter neck, inspired by designer bridal lehenga cholis and give your sarees a unique look. Choosing a contrast blouse is also a great option to give a modern look. 

Choose your jewellery depending on the colour of the saree. Gold and kundan jewellery blend beautifully with colours like red, green, or orange, while pearls enhance the look of sarees in pastel shades. Opt for soft make-up that complements the colour of the saree and makes you look like a stunner.
