Lehenga With Long Blouse Ideas To Stand Out This Wedding Season
A lehenga with long blouse can look absoluitely exquisite, provided you pick the right length of blouse for your look! Keep reading to know more!
Heavily embroidered lehenga skirts and choli blouses seem to go hand-in-hand, don’t they? No! This misconception is the real reason why millions of women freeze during winter weddings! You don’t always have to wear a midriff-baring top with your lehenga for your wedding look to be legit. Wear a lehenga with long blouse if you want to rock a very regal bridal look that is like none other!
How long should your long blouse be?
A lehenga with long blouse, also called a wedding lancha, can be found with varying blouse lengths. Picking the right length depends entirely on your body type and the vibe you want to create. Many women wear blouse lengths that stop just at the waist (like a typical t-shirt would). This look can help accentuate the length of your legs if your blouse is a figure-hugging one. However, if you end up wearing a boxy blouse, it may not exaggerate your length at all.
Similarly, many women prefer wearing a lehenga with long blouse that redefines the word long. One can easily find blouses that reach one’s ankles, knees, or the mid-thighs. If the look you are going for isn’t a model-esque long-legged one but a very regal one, then longer styles are perfect. If you opt for a very heavy blouse along with a crepe crinkly skirt, you can look absolutely stunning! If you’re doing so, do go for a sheer dupatta because your statement piece is the blouse and you don’t want to overdo it with adding layers of heavy fabric.
Now that you know how to pick your blouse, let us take a look at a few real brides and guests who wore a lehenga with long blouse to a wedding:
1. Beige and gold ensemble

Beige and gold make for a great combination during the wedding scene because nothing looks as elegant as a neutral-toned outfit. If you are the bride, pick something that has ample zari embroidery that will glitter when you take your Pheras. As a guest, you can go with something with lesser embroidery to tone down the look.
Style tip: Match the tone of your jewellery with the embroidery!
2. Purple bridal lehenga

This dual-toned purple and gold ensemble is a great pick for a bride. Her lehenga with long blouse comes with a sheer dupatta that makes sure that all eyes stay on the blouse (and the bride’s face). Pick something with a collared neckline if you want all the attention on the blouse!
Style tip: if you are wearing a collared blouse like this, make sure you browse a few choker designs to accessorise the same with!
3. Hardcore bridal look!

Now, we’ve been talking about pairing your lehenga with long blouse with lighter accompaniments to keep the attention on the blouse. However, if you want to go all out, pick an equally heavy dupatta to enhance your bridal look. You’ll need a slightly lighter skirt (now whether that means light in terms of the shade or the embroidery, that’s totally up to you!).
Style tip: Pair an equally heavy Rani Haar with this look!
4. Slit long blouse with sheer sleeves!

When your blouse is the hero of the outfit, you can get pretty creative with it. Here, we see a bride wearing a lehenga with long blouse that makes no bones about where the spotlight needs to be. From the heavy embroidery to the sheer sleeves, this blouse is one that’s here to be remembered.
Style tip: A slit blouse that opens slightly in the front will bring attention to the skirt of the lehenga. So make sure it’s a great one!
5. Saree style drape with a long blouse

The Lehenga saree look is a really popular one this season, and this bride has taken it to the next level by wearing a lehenga with long blouse that’s paired with a contrasting dupatta that’s draped saree style. She’s also worn a second dupatta on her head to prevent the orange from feeling too out of place.
Style tip: If you’re worried about pulling off a contrasting look, make sure your bangles carry some of the accent shade to keep the look cohesive!
6. Tarun Tahilliani’s lehenga
Looking for a designer lehenga with long blouse? This piece by Tarun Tahilliani is a gorgeous one, and we’re totally digging the pearl latkan detailing at the hem of the blouse.
