After experimenting aplenty with saree blouse back designs, and even going an extra mile with blouse lengths – with peplum blouses and long choli-style blouses – the saree blouses and lehenga cholis’ domain seems to be settled on the shoulders and sleeves design variations. Just a look at your favorite celebs and the latest television or Bollywood trends – and you are sure to spot the rising love for this style.
Whether it’s the avid fashion lover Sonam Kapoor, television’s favorite bahu Anika or the just-arrived Badrinath ki Dulhaniya – every fashionista can be seen sporting this fabulous style. The fashion-forward ensembles in the film Badrinath ki Dulhaniya have already created quite a stir. The film’s posters are a proof that this Dulhaniya is hooked onto the cold shoulder blouses! The peppy, pretty dulhaniya Alia Bhatt – in her real life – was also spotted sporting this trend, during the film’s promotions as well as for one of her famous (glittery grey-silver saree at Ambani party)) ethnic appearances.
With the size zero and extreme thinness obsession, finally and thankfully, fading – the women are no longer scared to show off their womanly curves. Happily, the focus is now zoomed on toned, athletic and statuesque shoulders/ arms. The trend of cut-out shoulders, cold shoulder designs, off-shoulder style and shoulder-baring designs is on a high! A visit to ethnic apparels’ leader Asopalav’s latest wedding and designer-wear store revealed that the glittering bridal lehengas and traditional wedding lehengas too are quickly catching up on this trend. And why not – after all – this is the chicest blouse designs trend on the block – and is haute as hell!
Here, have a look at 4 gorgeous wedding and party-wear bridal lehenga cholis from Asopalav’s latest range – so you are aptly inspired – and don’t get a cold shoulder from the fashion fraternity –
