7 things not to wear to a wedding

Deciding what to wear to a wedding is not an easy task. Everyone wants to look good, but if you really want to steal the limelight, you have to plan your wardrobe carefully. A suitable outfit for a wedding guest will be an amalgamation of traditional Indian or contemporary forms. The choices are aplenty like a custom nine-yards sari, lehengas, shararas, anarkalis or maybe even pre-stitched saris and gowns.

Deciding what to wear to a wedding is not an easy task. Everyone wants to look good, but if you really want to steal the limelight, you have to plan your wardrobe carefully. A suitable outfit for a wedding guest will be an amalgamation of traditional Indian or contemporary forms. The choices are aplenty like a custom nine-yards sari, lehengas, shararas, anarkalis or maybe even pre-stitched saris and gowns. Do not take out anything that spells casual. Bell-bottoms and cap sleeves should be restricted to weekend attires and must not be tried at weddings. Don’t even think of donning a pair of jeans and a T-shirt in a hurry. There is no excuse for such choices, whatsoever! Makeup has to be appropriate to the time of the function, season, venue, type and scale of the event. Do not go overboard with foundation in summers since the heat can play quite a devil. Take professional help in case you are not sure about what goes well in the weather.

You can’t really deviate more than this for a suitable outfit for wedding or related functions. More importantly, you have to understand that some things are a strict no-no when gettig ready for wedding. Let's take a look.

Don't be a plain black or white!
No matter how much these colours are in vogue, going to a wedding in plain and boring white or black outfit is not the best thing to do. While men can turn out in black tuxedos, women can sport cheery colours like orange, red, pink, mauve and more!

Avoid figure hugging outfits
It is great if you have a well-maintained body and if you can show it off in skimpy clothes. But, weddings and family gatherings are not the right occasions for this. Liberate yourself from tight fitted blouses and suits, and rather drape yourself in flowing pretty fabrics with beautiful borders and crystals.

Go for seasonal comfort
Wear clothes comfortable for your body type and the season. Don’t wear a fabric that does not go with the weather like velvets in summers can be disastrous. Make sure you check in advance if you need any alterations to avoid problems on the day of the function.

Heel deal
Please wear comfortable sandals. Remember that weddings are a bit longish and you might have to stand the entire time there. Moving around in high heels can be quite difficult especially if it is an outdoor venue. Pencil heel digs into the grass at farmhouses. So, check the venue before putting your best foot forward.

Anything chaotic is a no
Do not take out anything that spells casual. Bell-bottoms and cap sleeves should be restricted to weekend attires and must not be tried at weddings. Don’t even think of donning a pair of jeans and a T-shirt in a hurry. There is no excuse for such choices, whatsoever!

Blush blush
Makeup has to be appropriate to the time of the function, season, venue, type and scale of the event. Do not go overboard with foundation in summers since the heat can play quite a devil. Take professional help in case you are not sure about what goes well in the weather.

Don't be an attention seeker
Do not wear anything that calls for too much attention. Select your bags, jewellery and accessories carefully. Let the bride enjoy all the eyes on her. Steer away from clothes that are loud and garish. If it is a close relative’s function and you are keen on repeating your wedding dress, do it after calling some changes.
