A Week of Fashion Revelry
India Couture Week ICW 2024, a dazzling eight-day affair, has just wrapped up with a spectacular finale by Falguni and Shane Peacock. From July 24 to July 31, New Delhi became the epicenter of bridal fashion, showcasing a plethora of fresh and innovative trends.
“Corsets Reimagined”
This year, corsets made a grand comeback with a modern twist. As seen in Sonakshi Sinha’s stunning look for Dolly J, corsets were not just sensuous accents but central pieces of bridal couture. Designers like Jayanti Reddy and Tarun Tahiliani incorporated hand-embroidered and embellished corsets into sarees and lehengas, proving that this classic silhouette has a new lease on life.
“Drama with a Capital D”
Get ready for the Met-Galafication of Indian bridal wear! ICW 2024 embraced an extravagant, art-deco-inspired aesthetic featuring sculpted details, pearl-encrusted veils, and ornate headgear. With designers like Gaurav Gupta and Amit Aggarwal pushing the boundaries, bridal couture has never been so bold and theatrical. This maximalist approach is perfect for brides looking to turn their wedding into a personal red carpet event.
“Cocktail Glam Reinvented”
For the sangeet night, the traditional sequin gown is getting a chic update. Rimzim Dadu led the charge with her quirky blazers and sculptural asymmetrical skirts, making cocktail attire anything but ordinary. Brides-to-be, it’s time to stand out with avant-garde pieces that bring a fresh twist to the eveningwear scene.
“Grooms Get Glam”
This season also marked a notable shift for grooms. With metallic bustiers making waves—think Zendaya and Kim Kardashian’s previous looks—Indian designers like Gaurav Gupta and Roseroom have introduced sculpted versions that are nothing short of spectacular. Metallic accents are no longer just for the ladies.
“Timeless Red”
Amid all the innovation, red remains a perennial favorite. From JJ Valaya’s opulent designs to Asal by Abu Sandeep’s traditional lehengas, the color red continues to dominate, proving that some classics never go out of style.
India Couture Week 2024 has set the stage for a new era in bridal fashion, blending tradition with bold, contemporary twists. For those planning their wedding wardrobes, this season’s trends offer endless inspiration.
