Mehndi Dress Ideas: Colours and Fabrics That Photograph Well

Mehndi is the most colourful and playful function of the wedding season. The right dress should be comfortable for dancing and look wonderful in photographs.

Colours that photograph well

  • Yellow and mustard for classic Mehndi glow.
  • Green and mint for a fresh, festive feel.
  • Coral, pink and fuchsia for bold, joyful photos.

Fabrics for comfort

Choose lighter fabrics such as organza, cotton silk and light raw silk with thread embroidery. They hold their shape and feel comfortable on a long evening.

Silhouettes

Shararas, short kurtas with straight trousers and farshi shalwars all move well. Explore our Mehendi collection, shararas and farshi shalwars.

Accessories

Floral jewellery, colourful bangles and a simple hairstyle complete the look. Comfortable flats or low heels are a good idea for dancing.

Plan your outfits

Match the Mehndi outfit with the rest of your wedding wardrobe. Read our wedding dress trends and, for brides, the bridal wear guide.
