Decoding Athiya Shetty's Bridal Look

Pastel appears to be the new red for the modern bride. Like many others, Athiya Shetty too opted for an antique rose lehenga. Athiya's lehenga was desined by none other than the famous designer Anamika Khanna and it was adorned with chikankari design all around. (Image Source: Instagram)

Speaking about creating something special for the bride, Anamika told Vogue India, "Athiya’s got extremely fine, subtle, and beautiful taste. I wanted to develop something special for her that was resonant with the fact that she was going to be the bride, but she was never going to be that bride for whom everything else takes over. She has a very strong personality, and I think she’s acutely aware of it." (Image Source: Instagram)

Anamika further shared the details about the chikankari lehenga adding, "We created an extremely fine piece of Chikankari, as well as jaali ka kaam and Zardozi. In terms of the colour, it is an old-rose colour and even the metallic colours that we’ve used on the lehenga, is slightly burnt and old-world. It’s got that subtlety to it. Nothing is screaming for attention, and yet, it's just so her. Safe to say that it is not an outfit she will get bored of even in the coming years." (Image Source: Instagram)

"We’ve used silks for her main outfit and we’ve also used silk organza for her veil and her dupatta. The outfit is a labour of love. It took approximately 10000 hours to make", the fashion designer concluded. (Image Source: Instagram)

Her overall look was filled with a slew of gems, including a hefty polki and pearl necklace, earrings, and a maang-tikka. Additionally, she chose beautiful bangles and personalised cascading charms. (Image Source: Instagram)

With a heart full of gratitude and love, we seek your blessings on this journey of togetherness." (Image Source: Instagram)
