Indian wedding dress ideas for the bride’s mother
The lehenga
If you think the lehenga is just for the young girls, you’re mistaken. There is a lehenga for every woman – hence there is lehenga for your mother as well. Long structured lehenga skirts with an embellished blouse and dupatta can make the perfect Indian wedding dress for the bride’s mother.
Go for darker shades in color if yours is a winter wedding, else pastels, and printed lehengas are also good alternatives. The velvety royal blue lehenga worn by Neeta Ambani at her daughter’s wedding can give you the right inspiration.
Take a look at another wedding lehenga by Neeta Ambani in a pastel shaded lehenga. She definitely rocked the perfect ‘bride of the mother’ look.
You can even go for a Rajputi poshak instead of a lehenga set. Exclusive royal Rajasthan rajputi dress is available in alluring colors and motifs that match the grandeur of a wedding.
Sharara sets
Shararas are the talk of the town these days. Ace the ‘mother of the bride’ look in a stylish sharara set with an ornated dupatta. Gota-Patti work sharara sets not only adds to the glamour quotient but is super comfy. For a bride’s mother, this can be the perfect attire for the wedding.
Graceful drapes
Sarees are the most graceful Indian attire and there is no reason required to drape yourself in one of these beautiful wedding sarees. From Kanjeevaram silk sarees to light and breezy chiffon party wear sarees, the sky’s the limit when it comes to picking a saree style. Belted sarees, pattu sarees, ruffle sarees, half and half sarees, lehenga sarees, and the list goes on.
You can style them in the way you want or follow the style of your favorite Bollywood celebrity mother. We loved Hema Malini’s look at her daughter’s wedding in a traditional silk saree.
Anarkali suits
Anarkali suits are glamorous and stunning. Floor-length anarkali with a heavy banarasi dupatta or an anarkali gown can be the perfect pick for you. They are flattering for almost all body types. An anarkali suit with high slits rank higher in terms of comfort and style. Go for unique color combinations when picking an Anarkali suit. Neutral or pastel shade anarkali with a bold heavy dupatta looks heavenly.
Gowns
Ethnic or traditional Indian gowns are for the mothers of the millennial brides who are not afraid to experiment with bolder and edgier style options.
Cape-style gowns or jacket-gowns can add the sophistication factor to the look. Gowns are perfect for cocktail nights and receptions.
Mothers have all the rights to look as beautiful as their daughters on the wedding day. With so many varieties and color options available in Indian wedding dresses, you don’t need to look far when it comes to selecting the ‘best wedding outfit for the bride’s mother’.
