20 Banarasi Lehengas we have fallen in Love with!

“Banarasi is a not only a fabric, it’s a legacy”, don’t you think? There’s something totally regal about a bride decked in a banarasi lehenga. We’ve been eyeing more and more brides opting for a banarasi lehenga off-late and they look breathtakingly ethereal.

I understand the fascination too, as the lehengas are rich, classy, timeless and have an understated glamour of its own. Also, Banarasi silk is very light and flowy, which makes it suitable for all seasons. Unlike net, velvet and silks which can be irritating in hot climate, Banarasi silk is easy to wear and looks comfortable yet stylish.

Have a look at some brides and bridesmaids who totally rocked a Banarasi lehenga:

Before we start with Banarasi lehengas, let’s talk about Banarasi ‘gowns’ first! These sister-duo spotted these oh-so-stunning Banarasi gowns and we can’t get enough of these! The best part, they paired them with a pair of cool white sneakers  and slayed the look like it’s nobody’s business! Perfect for a bride’s mehndi, and apt for all bridesmaids!

Love how she has paired her all red banarasi lehenga with jewelry with green gemstones. Also, the way she has draped the dupatta across one shoulder is totally stunning and refreshing at the same time.

Pink Banarasi lehenga with a dark sheer pink dupatta is a stunner. Although, the way this bride has styled it makes all the difference. The layered necklaces, the kamarbandh and the oversized nath.

This one does not have that all – banarasi feel to it, given the golden work on the lehenga, but Sagarika Ghatge sure knew how to slay this Sabyasachi creation.
