Red Carpet Bride with Anita Dongre Part 2: Youthful Elegance

When the Red Carpet bride feature at the Anita Dongre studio was finalised, there was one outfit we KNEW we had to see on a bride. A floor length white  gown in gota patti work that is just elegance personified. And while a few of the girls scrunched their noses at the thought of wearing white, the minute this gown was slipped on Ruchira , we had a "We told you sooo" moment . She also got to wear one of our other favourites : a candy pink lehenga with intricate detailing paired with an orange blouse ! Shot by the super talented and young Monisha who runs The Photo Diary and with makeup by the super cute Fatima Soomar,

From the bride to be:

When we entered the Anita Dongre store, we were quickly whisked away into hair and makeup and we waited in excitement to see which outfit we would get to wear. Honestly, I loved all the  outfits that Ishita from the WMG team brought down but I secretly hoped and prayed I get the Pink lehenga as that was my absolute favourite and as luck would have it- that is the one I got !!! When I initially saw the white gown, I was a bit apprehensive of the color but the minute I put it on, it just fit like a dream. It was just too gorgeous- and I loved the gota detailing as well as how it fell on  me. Like a regal, elegant, timeless creation.  I wish I could keep them forever and now Im secretly convincing my parents to get me that gown ! I have to say so many of my friends were super envious  Lol ! The Hair do,  the makeup by Fatima and Monisha the photographer who just put me at ease  ! I more or less felt how I will look on my big day and  Jokes apart I feel so relieved and happy that I got this chance to get this experience . Can't thank u guys enough :) [handbook] The Photo Diary, Anita Dongre, and Fatima Soomar are all members of the WMG Handbook [vendor]
