Indian weddings tend to become red carpet events or fashion shows as each guest is expected to look his or her very best.

People usually focus on how the bride looks, what she wears, her makeup and her jewellery. But when the bride has a sister, it is inevitable that people will also give her their attention.

The bride’s sister has the responsibility to show proper respect to the celebration and this means looking her very best throughout the whole wedding celebration. This can be both pressuring and enjoyable especially if the she loves dressing up. If you are the sister of the bride, check out some of these trendy outfit ideas to help you in choosing the perfect outfit for the wedding:

Floral Sleeveless Traditional Dress

If you want to take dressing up to a higher level and to really hold onto some attention, you can wear a lehenga or any curve-defining traditional dress. You can wear a one piece dress or a two piece dress. Floral designs are very trendy nowadays for Indian wedding outfits but you may also notice that monochromatic and lighter colours are also in.

Modest Wrap-up Dress

If you are not comfortable wearing a more revealing dress there are lots of other options. There are many beautiful designs for modest long sleeved traditional Indian dresses. You can pair it with a long gorgeous saree. Others use creativity by mixing and matching different sets of outfits in colour and style.

Venus or Any Long Gowns

You don’t always have to go for traditional outfits. A Venus gown is also an excellent choice. It will make you look elegant with less effort like a goddess. If not a Venus gown, of course there are various long gowns you can choose from. Take inspiration from the outfits worn by beauty queens in international pageants or look to Bollywood divas.

Modern Pastel Dress

If you don’t feel like going for the traditional dress and any long gowns or Venus gowns, a modern pastel coloured dress will do. It gives you more freedom in your movement while maintaining a gorgeous look.

Consider the Fabric, Color and Details

Whether you wear a traditional or a modern gown or dress, other factors will also matter. There are heavy types of fabric especially in traditional dresses. If you want a more manageable outfit, choose one with a lighter type of fabric like silk, chiffon, cotton or georgette. Monochromatic or minimal colours are most preferable with intricate details such as glittery sequins or gems.
