This warm and inviting colour is very refreshing and totally acceptable for a bride who does not want to wear the traditional colours, red or maroon. In general, most women in India have a warmer skin tone, which means you can pick any shade of orange without a doubt. Plus, you would love that instant natural glow that it adds to your skin.

Colours to mix and match

To make your wedding outfit even more interesting and chic, you can opt for the double dupatta style. Keep the heavy one that comes with your outfit, for draping over the shoulder. Choose a lightweight dupatta in complementing colours like yellow, pink or red, to drape over your head. This way, you can have both styles as well as comfort.

Orange is a slightly difficult colour to work with, so you have to be very careful with the colours you choose for your makeup. Chandni Singh, one of the most sought after makeup artists from Delhi, recommends a classic style makeup with intense smokey eyes in the shades of copper, brown or gold, with a lot of kohl and winged eyeliner.

For lips, she suggests a peachy orange shade of lipstick and peach blush for the cheeks. And, girls who can carry off bright lips with ease may try out bright orange lips with slightly softer smokey eyes. A classy chignon, simple bun or a messy updo would be perfect to complete your look for your wedding day.

Apart from following all the above-mentioned guidelines, here are some additional tips that you need to keep in mind if you plan to wear an orange lehenga on your wedding day:

  • Avoid wearing orange from head to toe. For example, if your lehenga has gold or copper embellishments on it, then pair it with a choli in the same colour. Or, choose a complementary colour, like yellow or fuchsia pink, to break down the monotony.
  • Ombré lehengas are also quite popular today. So, if you are not too confident about the pure bright orange shade, then you can pick one in this orange ombré colour.
  • Orange is a great shade for the brides who are going to have a daytime marriage ceremony.
