2. Embroidered Net Lehenga

Net fabric with handicraft embroidery in silk threads and pearly or white beads will help you slay. Pair this with a red dupatta embellished with the same white beads stitched into it and complete with the golden border. You can simply drape the dupatta over your head with middle part bun and let it fall, making it into a cape cum dupatta. Secure it properly with pins, and you have a new look for pairing that golden lehenga with red dupatta.

3. Simply Chiffon

Another idea for styling the golden lehenga with red dupatta is picking lovely quality chiffon and pairing it with mid-sleeved choli. Add can-cans to your lehenga for an ultimate swirl. Drape your head with a golden dupatta. Sounds a little monotonous? Break the monotony with a rich red velvet dupatta and drape it sideways on your shoulder, whichever hand you're comfortable having it over. Team this ensemble with Kundan jewellery.

4. Art Silk & Bootiyan

For this look, you can go for a golden lehenga studded with red Bootiyan on the lower part of the lehenga like a cluster of small and big stars. Put it on with a choli in same golden and red combination on the lower part of the sleeves, along with red net dupatta with golden Bootiyan. This is yet another unique way of styling your golden lehenga with red dupatta.

5. Printed Organza With Brocade

Organza is the fabric of the season! Go for golden organza with floral print in coral pink and orange. Add brocade on the hem of the lehenga skirt, till knees and pair it up with mid sleeves blouse along with a dupatta in red chiffon and brocade. Drape the dupatta like a Gujarati saree Pallu in a loose style and let it fall back from one shoulder. Secure the look with Maang Tikka and dewy bridal makeup.

Pair this with a red net dupatta with plain texture golden embroidery at the ends. Drape it over the head and one front through one shoulder while letting it drape loosely behind the other. On the bare shoulder, you can go for a shawl or drapery in a contrasting fabric and colour.
