4 Lancha Pattern Ideas You Won’t Be Able to Take Your Eyes Off From!
A lancha is one of the most popular outfits in recent times! If you want an interesting silhouette that makes you look great, pick the right lancha pattern and walk into any function knowing you’ll look the best!
With brides continually on the lookout for trendy designs and funky silhouettes, an old outfit called lancha has now come back into fashion. The lancha is a garment with a kurti-like blouse paired with a skirt. In many ways, it’s the lehenga choli’s conservative cousin. The kurti’s length can either stop at the waist, or it falls below it, extending all the way till the ankle at times. Both brides and guests are seen wearing this garment during weddings as it is a very dressy outfit. It comes with a dupatta that often matches the lancha pattern, making this very similar to its predecessor.
Choose the right lancha pattern and this outfit will never let you down! The following are a few designs that you should check out for inspiration!
1. Grey and silver lancha with sequins!
This gorgeous lancha pattern is one that will catch the light when you dance, making sure that all eyes are on you. With a medium length kurti that’s cinched in at the waist with a silver belt, the bride has done a great job of accentuating her figure. She’s even gone ahead and secured her dupatta with the belt, ensuring that it doesn’t slip and slide as she dances. The thick silver borders paired with the light sequin work make this a garment that is perfect for your Sangeet.

As the predominant hue in this is silver, be sure to get intricate silver jewellery from Dariba Kalan! Not only will it look great, but it will also mark you as different when compared to all the other women wearing gold jewellery!
2. Peach and gold lancha with a pink dupatta!
Peach, being one of the colours of the season, makes an appearance here as well! With a short length kurti that extends just below the waist and a skirt that flares out from below, this is a great bridal outfit, especially if you are getting married in a Gurudwara and want a subtle look that is appropriate for the Holy place. The neckline and hemline of the kurti both have a thick gold pattern that helps create a separation between the kurti and skirt. This is because the lancha pattern is the same throughout.

Colour blocking is a great fashion tool that can help you create unique ensembles with different garments. One of the most popular combinations when it comes to this style is red and deep blue, and you can achieve this with your lancha quite easily.
