Best Lehenga Shops On Commercial Street To Get Wedding To Designer Bridal Fits
Overview
Badsha Stores - The Silk Experience
The best thing about the store is that they have a lehenga suited to your budget. We asked for a selection that would come between INR 3,500 to INR 4,000 and we were shown a range of intricately embroidered lehengas - one particular stunning peach silk one with embroidered aquamarine blue flowers caught our eye. If you can’t decide on a lehenga yet, then do have a look at Badsha’s range of stunning cholis (goes up to a size 42).
These readymade blouses come in plush fabrics like silk and velvet and come with really delicate gold zardozi work and some interesting back details. You can find full sleeves, quarter or short sleeves too. Though the blouses are steep (anywhere between INR 2,500 and above), these are investment pieces and can work with any plain saree or even a solid toned lehenga.
Price: INR 3,500 upwards
Meraj
This two-floored store in Commercial Street is quite popular and you can select from heavy-duty embroidered lehengas here to simpler elegant versions too. You'll find that a lot of inspiration in their designs come from Bollywood cinema! This one is definitely for those looking for a dressy option. Apart from lehengas, we found some lovely crepe and cotton silk sarees in pastel shades and embroidered with pearl and silver sequin work. There is also a rack with unstitched salwar kameez sets in pretty pastel silks with palazzo style bottoms, and light brocade patterns and tassel details. They also do alterations.
Price: INR 3,000 upwards
Mysore Saree Udyog
If you’re looking for something really festive, but budget too, try Mysore Saree Udyog. The collection of Bandhej lehengas will work really well for any festival. In bright colours like red, green, orange and pink, you’ll stand out but it won’t be OTT at all. They also have a few chiffon, velvet and raw silk numbers which are high on class and low on bling. And the best part? Prices start at INR 2,500.
Price: INR 2,500 for lehenga sets, INR 800 upwards for blouses and INR 1,000 for material and skirts.
Koskii
Want to look straight out of a Yash Raj film? Head on over to Koskii for all sorts of special occasions. They’ve got grand lehengas with heavy hand or machine embroidery work on them, but those are for brides and her party. For friends of the bride, check out their blouses and skirts that can be bought separately.
From classic choli-style and crop tops to the halter neck and corset designs, you’ll get them all here. All you need to do is pick a skirt (from the flouncy chiffon to the more solid silk) and mix and match. If you’re picky, then they even customise embroidery at their studio, so unleash your inner designer on them.
Price: INR 4,500 upwards for lehengas; INR 1,500 upwards for cholis and crop tops.
