Womenwear Size Guide (inches)

size guide 1 1

This aqua reception lehenga choli pairs a cool blue-green palette with bright silver handwork, creating a reception look that feels calm, luminous and unmistakably bridal. With a fitted peplum blouse, a full crushed silk lehenga and a sheer ruffled organza dupatta, this aqua bridal lehenga choli gives real presence without relying on deep, heavy colour.

The Moment She Arrives

Daylight finds her first at the neckline, where silver beadwork glints against the pale aqua silk. She steps forward and the pearl-like drops at her cap sleeves stir, answering the fringe along the pointed peplum. Then she turns, and the lehenga opens into a wide circle, its silver-edged hem drawing a bright arc across the floor. The dupatta follows a breath later, gathering at her arms in airy, cloud-like ruffles before spilling into loose translucent folds. Against the calm blue-green fabric, every raised curl and lattice line on the bodice catches the light, so that she seems to glow softly rather than shine.

Design & Silhouette

This aqua reception peplum lehenga balances a closely fitted, silver-embellished bodice with the sweeping movement of a generously flared skirt. Intricate floral scrolls, geometric lattice and dangling pearl-like details lend texture to the blouse, while the sheer, dramatically ruffled dupatta surrounds the silhouette with soft, floating layers.

  • A wide boat neckline and delicate cap sleeves are finished with silver-toned embellishment and pearlescent bead drops.
  • The fitted bodice features raised ornamental curls, floral embroidery and fine repeating lattice patterns.
  • A scalloped peplum hem extends into a pointed centre-front detail, edged with dangling pearl-like beads.
  • The full aqua lehenga falls in vertical crushed-look folds, highlighted by reflective silver lines and a broad metallic hem border.
  • A deep V-shaped back is framed by textured lattice embroidery and decorative tasselled ties.
  • The translucent matching dupatta forms oversized cascading ruffles that gather and billow around the skirt.

Craftsmanship & Details

Every surface of this aqua reception lehenga with pearl embellishments carries layered, considered detail.

  • Embroidery: heavy zari, salma sitara, cutdana, pearl, resham thread and stone work in silver and tonal shades.
  • Placement: full front, full back, neckline, sleeves, daman and lehenga ghera.
  • Embellishments: tassels (latkan), beads, small stones, ruffles, frills and jaal work.
  • Blouse: silk, silk lined, with boat neck, deep V back, cap sleeves and a concealed zip with hook-and-eye closure.
  • Lehenga: crushed silk, 14 kali, with panels and cancan.
  • Dupatta: matching organza, 3.5 yards.

Made to Measure

Each outfit is custom stitched to your measurements, in a standard or custom size. Full custom design is available, so you can discuss the details of your design with our team before your lehenga is made. Matching jewellery and a matching potli bag can be selected from the add-ons.

Where to Wear It

You stay in control until it ships

Watch it being made

Ask us at any stage and we send photographs or video of your actual outfit — from the first sketch through the embroidery frame to the finished garment. Ask as often as you like on WhatsApp.

A complete video before it ships

Before the parcel is sealed we send you a full video of the finished outfit. If a detail needs adjusting, tell us then and we make the change where it is workable. Nothing leaves us until you have seen it.

Exactly what you see

The photographs and video on this page are of the outfit we make — the same fabrics, the same handwork, the same weight in the hand. A screen can only carry so much: it cannot show how the zardozi catches light as you turn, or how the ghera moves when you walk. That is why we send you a video of your own outfit before it ships, so you judge the real thing rather than a photograph.

Sizing & Measurements

Choose a standard size, or select Customised Size and we stitch to your own measurements at no extra cost.

Your size or measurement details are provided before checkout is completed, which is why production can begin the day after you order. If a measurement is unclear, send it to us on WhatsApp before you submit it and our team will confirm it with you.

Size guide and how to measure

Care

  1. Always put paper between the layers when you fold it away. Kora, dabka and nakshi are metallic wire, and the fabric underneath them is fine. Every time the outfit is opened or folded, a stitch on one layer can catch the layer pressed against it and tear through it. A sheet of tissue or plain paper between the layers keeps the wire work away from the cloth, and it costs nothing. Use plain paper rather than newspaper on pale or ivory fabrics, because newsprint ink can mark them.
  2. Store it folded, not hanging. A heavily worked outfit is heavy, and months on a hanger pull the weight onto the shoulder seams.
  3. Dry clean only. Hand and machine washing damages metallic embroidery. Tell your cleaner the outfit carries zardozi, dabka or similar metallic handwork so it is cleaned by hand rather than by machine.
  4. Keep it away from direct sunlight and damp. Perfume and hairspray go on before the outfit, not after.

Questions About This Outfit

Can the design be customised?

Yes. Most customers ask for the design to be made a little more modest — higher neckline, longer or fuller sleeves, more coverage at the back, a longer shirt. Tell us what you want changed on WhatsApp before you order so the pattern is cut correctly the first time. Colour, embroidery colour, sleeves, neckline and length are all adjustable on most designs.

Will the dress look exactly like the photographs?

It will be very close, and we do not compromise on the embroidery or the fabric. Two honest exceptions: the colour shade can look slightly different because of studio lighting and your screen, and because every customer's height and body type is different, a pattern may need to be adjusted so the design sits correctly on you — on a shorter frame, for example, part of the shirt pattern may have to be re-cut. Ask for the final video before dispatch and you will see the actual garment before it ships.

Can I return or exchange it after delivery?

No. Every outfit is cut and stitched for one customer, so it cannot be resold or swapped for another size. That is exactly why the review happens before dispatch: ask for progress photographs and video at any stage, and for the complete final video before your order ships. An order can still be cancelled before dispatch — the windows and deductions are set out in our return policy.

Is there any extra cost on top of the price shown?

No hidden charges. The price you see is the price of the outfit. The only additions are the ones you choose yourself: Rush or Super Rush delivery, and any paid add-ons such as jewellery. Each is priced clearly before you pay.

Can I get matching jewellery with this outfit?

Yes. Matching earrings, necklace and related pieces are available as paid add-ons on this product — select them before you add the outfit to your basket and they are made and shipped with the same order.

Can I get a matching hijab or an extra dupatta?

Yes. Both are possible. Message us on WhatsApp when you place your order and we will tell you exactly how to arrange it.

Is Rush or Super Rush delivery available for this outfit?

Yes, on bridal and groom wear. The Estimated Delivery Timeline box near the top of this page shows live dates for Free, Rush and Super Rush against today's date, so it is always accurate for your order.
