Tarun Tahiliani brings 'lightness' to Indian bridal wear

New Delhi:  Fashion designer Tarun Tahiliani's finale show at the India Bridal Fashion Week (IBFW), which saw model-actress Lisa Haydon walk the ramp thrice, focused on "lightness" that was still laden with the weight of



As part of Man of the Hour, Tahiliani showcased an interesting blend of contemporary wear for the grooms-to-be. He mad draped dhotis out of kanjeevaram saris and intricate sherwanis, kurta and bandhgalas. There were also sherwanis in velvet with jewel embroidered necklines and cuffs.

The veteran designer said: "The concept of the show was all about draping and Indian embroideries, but I wanted to work with lightness. So everything has volume, but it is all very light.

"Everybody shouts that I use very light colours, but I feel when you're wearing rubies and emeralds, then I think if you wear shocking pink, it just gets too much. So I think there should be lightness and sophistication and something which is easy on the eyes, and which is contemporary (in your wedding wear)."
