All of us want to shine out at a wedding without looking too over the top. If you’re also more of the handloom, heirloom-loving wedding guest, instead of the usual Swarovski and sequin lover, we’ve found the best brands to shop at.
Parisera
This Chennai-based brand is you go to for hipster linen sarees that won’t burn a hole in your pocket! They have a large collection of designer sourced nine yards that are completely handcrafted. They have Kanjivarams, tussar silks, jamdanis and even banarsis and the designs are timeless and traditional.
Suta
They have the lightest, comfortable sarees in all the colours off the colour wheel! Paired with a quirky blouse these sarees can help you outshine at any family gathering!
Purple Panchi
This brand’s lehengas and suits are made for times when you want to dress up without looking too dressed up. They’re bright and versatile enough to last way after the wedding shebang is over.
Aria Ethnic
This Gurgaon-based brand has all weaves such as ikkat, khadi or Arunachali weaves! You can pick up amazing saris at prices that won’t kill you.
Via East
Their classic silks and ethereal chanderis are simply to die for! Their latest collection of saris is just the right amount of festive, and are very reasonably priced. For smaller functions, like haldi or mehndi we find ourselves liking this range.
