Doesn’t matter which religion you come from, Mehandi & Sangeet are ceremonies without which an Indian wedding is just not complete. So, what should be worn for these important events? How can you forget the beautiful green lehnga worn by Kajol in Dil waley dulhaniya le jayenge? Green is the colour that we love for mehandi ceremony. But, you can wear any colour that you want. If you ask the favourite colour of Bollywood, then its pink. Just make sure that the colour that you choose is of such colour which can hide the stains of heena, if in case it gets clumsy. Apart from green, colours like dark brown, red, maroon, khaki can be a part of your choice list.
Being a bride, your heena is going to cover whole of your arms, so make sure that your dress has either short sleeves or no sleeves at all, you wouldn’t want to spoil your new dress with mehandi, would you?
If you mehandi and Sangeet isn’t happening together, then buy a dress that makes mobility easy for you to enjoy your sangeet ceremony. A salwar kameez is something that we like. Its comfortable, it gives you mobility and it looks good on everyone!
Now coming to the lingerie, which builds the foundation of your mehandi and Sangeet dress, let’s see the things you should be keeping in mind while buying them.
- Comfort: For mehandi, You are going to sit in one position for hours with your hands and legs busy, make sure your lingerie doesn’t create a trouble for you. COTTON! For mehandi choose cotton, no matter what! Cotton suits everyone, and it will make sure that your whole focus is only on the beautiful design of your heena and not on itchy skin.
Comfort matters a lot during sangeet also. Make sure the lingerie fabric is soft on your skin and it doesn’t restrict your mobility. Cotton is again something that you should prefer before any other fabric.
- Stylish: Cotton isn’t always boring! Choose something that’s comfortable, yet stylish.
- Colour: If your dress is not thin, then play around with colors.

- Shapewear: Since now the cameras start to remain focused on you, you should wear a shapewear. Choose the one that goes well with your dress.
