Visiting the likes of Chandni Chowk in search of the exact Sabyasachi lehenga replica is the right thing to do. While many vendors do solemnly pledge to have the exact copies of Sabya’s lehengas, many try and dupe the customers into believing that their designs are a copy of the designer. With so many designs in front of you, it is natural to get confused and give into believing their claim of owning the true Sabyasachi lehenga replica. But, in order to avoid falling into the trap and bringing back home a design that is not even close to resembling the creations of this ace designer, you need to know the rules!

Surfing through his Spring - Summer 2019 collection and jotting down the most recurring elements of his designs, we have listed below the most prominent factors that define a true Sabyasachi lehenga design. Simply memorise or scribble down the following factors that will ensure you find the right Sabyasachi lehenga replica like a pro, even when the vendor says it otherwise. Take a look!

1. Chanderi Patterns

Sabyasachi’s love for traditional handlooms and Karigari is what defines his signature style right. Among the many regional elements that the designer incorporates into his designs, Chanderi patterns and thread-work is something that dominates many of his wedding lehenga designs. Look out for polka-flower patterns, coin replicas, peacock motifs and geometric weaves in the golden thread; when looking for a Sabyasachi lehenga replica.

Another factor to look out for while seeking the Chanderi patterns is that his patterns are mostly of average size and repetition. If you find replicas wherein the patterns are oversized or too small, then that’s not the lehenga you’ve been looking for.

2. Dual-Toned Lehenga

We have spotted this trend recently at many stores and studios of Chandni Chowk and South Extension market, but not all are a Sabyasachi lehenga replica! You are looking for dual tones that are distinct in shades but still contrasting and complimenting each other in complete harmony.

Another feature to look out for with these dual-toned lehengas is the immense usage of Gota Patti work that embellishes these lehengas beautifully. A broad border towards the floor and geometric pleat designs in dual tones are some of the factors dominating this style. Fuchsia pink and Cherry Red and are two colours that have been spotted in Sabyasachi’s freshest collection. So do look out for this fool-proof colour combination apart from military green and forest green hues when looking for a Sabyasachi lehenga replica.

3. Military Green Hues

Okay, brides-to-be, pay your finest attention to this one! If you want to amalgamate Sabyasachi’s creative genius with your personal wedding style then you are looking for military green-hued lehengas. We repeat. Military green-hued Sabyasachi lehenga replica only! The designer has put in a lot of efforts into producing some military green-hued designs both in lehengas and sarees.

The best part about these shades of green is that they compliment every bride-to-be flawlessly! To bring contrast to such Sabyasachi lehenga replica, you can search for a lehenga in dual tones of military-green hues and pay extra attention to the detail, as far as the threadwork or embellishment is concerned.

4. Sleeveless Blouse

Something borrowed from the older lanes of Calcutta (now Kolkata), Sabyasachi always includes sleeveless blouse designs in all of his collections. Be it a saree or even a lehenga, you should definitely consider getting altered a sleeveless blouse design to go with your Sabyasachi lehenga replica skirt. When it comes to stylising the sleeveless blouse, you will mostly see that Sabya either leaves the neck bare or adds on a heavy choker necklace to compliment his simple sleeveless crop top blouse design best.

Hence, when you are finalising on a Sabyasachi lehenga replica with a sleeveless blouse, take into account how sober or heavily embellished the blouse is. If the blouse is quite muted, then you should look out for a bridal choker necklace to go with it. But if the blouse is heavily embellished or embroidered, then we suggest that you only focus on a pair of statement earrings to balance the heaviness of the sleeveless blouse right.

5. Sorbet Hues

For your Mehndi or Sangeet ceremony, we suggest that you pick a replica of the Sorbet sub-collection by Sabyasachi Mukherjee! Muted neons in nature and in the same pattern and colour tone from head-to-toe, these lehengas are a breath of fresh air in the otherwise embellished and colourful world of bridal lehengas. We are talking about embroidered lehengas in Sabyasachi’s favourite sorbet colours as your Sabyasachi lehenga replica pick.

If you have a day wedding function, then do match a pair of retro-style sunglasses to go with this lehenga, while you strut your way around, meeting and greeting your loved ones. Leave your hands bare and simply focus on adorning contrasting choker jewellery set to complement the sorbet Sabyasachi lehenga replica like a pro!

6. V-Neck Plunge
