Are wedding bells on the horizon? Diva'ni’s latest Gudya Bano collection is exactly what you’re after. Their gorgeous bridal wear is inspired by the celebrated heritage of the undivided Hindostan, and is iconic of our regal past. The tiniest glimpse into the boutique will have you crushing on their royal vibe! With every celebrity worth their salt getting married in grand fashion, this year has practically revolved around beautiful and arresting wedding looks. If that sort of grandeur is what you’re looking for, read on…

Of Folklore & Regal Heritage

The ensemble sets here are masterpieces steeped in legacy with intricate handicraft work, finely woven fabrics and rich colour palettes of deep maroons, reds and golds. Reviving the lineage of pre-partition Lahore, the masterpieces of Gudya Bano look timeless. Diva'ni’s season’s signature bridal ensemble such as the Laal Gumbad lehenga looks vibrant in its hues of vermillion, and with the antique art of Tilla (gold and silver thread embroidery).

Choose from exquisite drapes—from pure, handwoven tissue, organza and shaneel to nostalgic silhouettes in handwoven pure silks. Whether it’s multi-panel farshi ghararas, shararas, seamless circular 100m diameter lehengas or classic sarees, they’ve got it all!

Keepsakes For Life…

Move over Bollywood heroines–you’ll slay your style and inspire ethnic fashion in draw-string sleeves and churidaars with kasab latkans (zari tassels). The emphasis on reviving traditional craftwork is clearly visible in the collection. The odhnas and dupattas are ornately decorated with sona and rupa zari kirans. Diva’ni’s signature zardozi techniques of kutki and farisha draws inspiration from the Mughal and Persian architecture, and lends an old world charm to this collection.

#LBBTip: Even if you don’t plan to purchase an ensemble right away, do consider stepping into  Diva’ni flagship couture, if for nothing else but to be mesmerised by the charming embellishments and drool over some artistic gems (not limited to the beautiful outfits).

So, We’re Saying...

Browsing through Diva’ni is like turning the pages of your grandmother’s beautiful wedding album–an experience filled with emotion and authenticity. With such fine craftsmanship shining through in every piece, the collection comes surreally close to a woman’s dream wedding trousseau.
