8 Stunning Choli Design Ideas for the Millennial Bride Who's Not Shy to Rock Her Style

Millennial brides are adventurous, independent, resourceful, smart, and passionate. They are aware that all eyes - and cameras - will be on them on the D-day, hence they don't like to miss out on even the minutest detail. When it comes to their outfits, they prefer to take risks and achieve super stylish looks that could blow anyone's mind. If you too are a millennial bride-to-be, who's going to wear lehenga-choli on at least one of the functions, here are some stunning choli design ideas!

1. Deep Cut Neckline

Modern brides are ditching modest looks and opting for necklines that evoke their sensuality. A choli design with a deep neckline is a must-try for brides who don't like to play it safe. Keep your neckline low or deep enough to look sensual but high enough to maintain grace. If you're too shy for a deep neckline at front, opt for a low neckline at back. A low neckline can take attention away from problem areas, such as a bulging tummy.

2. Tiny Choli

If you have the figure to wear, flaunt and rock a tiny choli, why shy away! This choli design isn't suitable for all body types but is trending among health freak, millennial brides. If you're slim, proudly own washboard abs or have an envy-provoking hourglass figure, definitely consider it. This chaniya choli design requires a ton of confidence, for sure.

3. Off-the-Shoulder

Our obsession with off-the-shoulder outfits isn't restricted to just western wear. Indian brides can very easily go for an off-the-shoulder choli with their lehenga. This choli design will add an effortless modern twist to their ethnic bridal outfit. This trend is suitable for pretty much every body type, especially if you have toned shoulders. It is also an excellent choice with an engagement lehenga.

4. High Neck

Yes, this style is a little tricky but looks so sophisticated and unique when done right. If you are bored with the same old necklines of cholis, go higher! This choli design is apt for girls with a thin neck or a small bust. It also helps accentuate narrow shoulders and a long face. Pair such styles with elaborate jewellery to create the effect of a jewelled neckline.

5. Illusion Elements

Here is a modest way to wear a sheer choli. A sheer net on the neckline, sleeves and even at the back can help create a sexy look, even when the fabric is pretty much there. When used on the neck, it helps create the illusion of an off-the-shoulder choli. This style is apt for all body types and works for brides who don't want to show too much skin yet desire to look stylish.

6. Peplum

Peplum is a breath of fresh air in the world of midriff-revealing cholis. A peplum is an easy way to create the illusion of a smaller waistline while accentuating the curves at the hips. The peplum style works for every body type and is an ideal choice for plus size brides too. This style helps create a statement choli and demands to be styled correctly.

7. Sleeveless

This style is popular among spring/summer and young brides. It is a must-try for girls who do not miss arm day at the gym. Don't forget to pay heed to your underarms when opting for this style as nothing can ruin your wedding pictures like unkempt underarms. If you do not have the heart to go sleeveless, an addition of little cap sleeves is recommended.

8. Personalised

In order to make your wedding trousseau more memorable, add at least one - or several -personalised details to your choli. We recommend getting your wedding hashtag embroidered on one of the sleeves. For a more dramatic look, embroider or paint your love story at the back of your choli. Another excellent idea? Get your love story etched at the border.

When it comes to wedding outfits, every bride wants to put her best foot forward. From experimenting to personalisation, millennial brides are not leaving any stone unturned and it reflects when their pictures go viral on social media. Don’t forget to keep your overall look, theme, budget, ambience, and season in mind before finalising your choli design(s).

Pro tip: If you don't like the choli fabric that came with your lehenga so much, just leave it. Pick a new one from the market for an Insta-worthy choli that everyone would love to copy.
