This new style saree will be a great choice for an engagement ceremony or a Haldi ceremony of the wedding.

Our Queen Victoria of sarees, Ms Kangana Ranaut, decided to take saree across continents as a part of her Cannes red carpet looks. Who better than the couple duo Falguni & Shane Peacock to understand the Indo-western demand in hand and westernise the saree to fit the fashion palettes of Indian fashion fraternity as well as the western counterparts.

A pure gold Kanjeevaram saree got a makeover with a debonair peplum bustier, that made Kangana look like a true queen hailing the red carpet of the film festival. Yes, we haven’t forgotten to mention the velvet queen’s gloves that are justifying accessorisation of this look impeccably. Wear this style to your grand Sangeet ceremony or the cocktail night and see heads turn as you walk around holding a glass of wine in hand; just like royalty!

3. Resort Saree Drapes

If you plan on having a beach wedding, then your clothes also need to be filled with extensive resort wear. Case in point, this beautiful new style saree by Sabyasachi, that Alia Bhatt was spotted flaunting to celebrate 20 years of Sabyasachi’s being in business. The printed organza saree with a slim sequined border lace is a breath of fresh air from his otherwise couture heavy designs that we all are well versed with.

The one-shoulder blouse teamed with statement Chandbali earrings turned out to be a match made in heaven. If that was not enough, Alia wore a waist belt in the same print as that of the saree, with just Sabyasachi’s signature belt buckle working as the breaker of the monotony like a charm!

4. Embroidered Saree With Extra Long Pallu

Anamika Khanna doesn’t create designs, she creates dreams. One such dreamy design of hers was recently worn by Deepika Padukone to grace a social gathering. Covered head to toe in pristine white embellishments, this new style saree can be called the shining diamond amidst a party of other couture red carpet show-stops.

Special attention to be drawn towards the trail-making Pallu style which has been given a generous length by Anamika, ensuring that the wearer gets to make a gala entry at any given party. This saree style gives us a cocktail evening vibes but you can very well adorn this for your wedding reception as well!

5. A Ruffled Dream

This salmon new style saree by Sonaakshi Raj will bring life to any party, instantly. Shilpa Shetty is known for adorning stunning variations of sarees and this style has to be one of the many elegant saree styles that she has worn till date. Layered ruffles around the skirt area with a super-fluffed up Pallu and a one-shoulder bustier-style blouse in the same fashion is what gives this saree the vision of being an ode to a ballgown dress.

We love how Mrs Kundra has accessorised the saree with a seriously bejewelled waist belt, a diamonds and rubies studded necklace and partially side-swept curls to conclude the look. This saree is a guaranteed stunner at a Sangeet party, a cocktail night and the reception function of the wedding without question.

These couture new style saree trends are surely going to make you the ‘heroine’ or the lead actress of your wedding movie. But when you decide on adorning any of these new style saree designs, make sure that you consult the designer to suggest accessorisation options as well. Many of these saree styles will look flattering with a metallic waist belt wrapped around, thanks to Sabyasachi Mukherjee and his signature waist belts collections for that.

In case you still wish to accessorise the sarees further, you can pick up a jewel or two or can visit a statement hand-clutch boutique to find some bejewelled hand accessories, to go with every saree look. Experts also advise that a saree wearer should invest in a pair of heels to give a better structure to the saree and its drapes.

Hope our list of new style saree designs has got you dreaming about adorning one of these designs (at least) at your wedding as well. Let us know which one is your dreamiest pick!
