Anand Kabra’s collection, ‘Kumari’, is a tale of the two faces of a woman–one of a ‘goddess,’ the other of a ‘temptress’. The major theme of the collection was asymmetry which you could see in the skewed hemlines, shoulders, buttons, etc. The color palette of ivory, white, turmeric pewter, ash and sindoor red was easily a background for bridal wear. Kabra used beautiful ethnic motifs to display an (almost) ready-to-wear collection. See the collection after the jump.

Ahmedabad designers Bhumika and Shyamal Shodhan unveiled  a magnificently Indo-Mughal themed affair as their Spring/Summer 2010 bridal collection on September 18, 2009. Perfect for a royal-themed wedding, the color scheme is superbly rich thus making it  perfect for a fall or winter wedding! Working off of a rich color palette of burgundy, chocolate, orange, green, brown, midnight blue and stark black hues, the designers infused velvet, velour, and brocade fabrics with zardozi, chikan, gota, marodi and aardi work. The collection consists of opulent ghaghra cholis, silken saris and stunning kurtas–jewel-encrusted cummerbands and all.
