2. Color of the lehenga

Based on your skin color you can opt for different color combinations. For say,

Very fair-skinned women can opt for dark and rich colors like red, vermillion, etc. Fair skin women can opt for neutral colors like pink, blue, pastel yellow, white, beige, etc. If you have dusty complexion use warm and rich colors like orange, gold, brown, shades of grey, or green. And dark undertones can opt for pale colors like shades of yellow and blue along with pure red and bright green.

One can also select the color of their lehengas based on location or occasion. If you are in a very hot weathered city opt for light colors and if you are in a cool weathered city opt for dark-colored lehengas.

Beware of the lights in the store because while you buy, it can happen that you want some color and you get other.

3. Embroidery of the lehenga

Embroidery and embellishments are the ones that give a perfect look for your lehenga apart from the color combination. If you are a bride and want to have a regal look opt for a heavily embroidered lehenga. If you are not a bride then you can opt for minimal embroidery on your lehenga. Zari work, stone, and many more are there which you can try for your lehenga.

4. The fabric of the lehenga

One of the important factors to consider while you buy a lehenga is the fabric. While some fabrics are stretchable that allows you to order your blouse as per your bust size, other fabrics make your curves more prominent. Firstly, know all about the fabrics available in the market and then choose it among the available options. But before buying it try it once because you are the one who will carry it for the whole day so take care.

5. Blouse look

A blouse has the power to make or break your entire look. Beware of trends on lehengas blouses. Don’t just blindly follow trends take a close look at the blouse fabric, its length, and its suitability to your body. Make sure to check the possibility of having blouse alterations in case you want to wear and use the lehenga for the future.

6. Aware of your budget

When you visit a store it may happen you like a lehenga but it crosses your budget. you don’t want to leave that lehenga but you don’t have another choice. it’s kind of disheartening. so firstly after visiting a store say to your salesperson about your budget and then thereon, he will show you the designs. shopping is made easy by simply stating your budget.

Here are some tips if you are specifically buying online :

Regarding lehenga cut, color, and designer filter out on the website. all the details about them are stated above.
Make sure to know your size. Take a good look at the size chart and see whether all the sizes like chest size, waist size, and hip size are clearly stated in the chart. Don’t compare the size of your casual everyday wear clothes with ethnic wear. If the size chart only provides generalized details about the size like petite, average, or long then try to gather additional information from the customer service executives of the site to get a better idea about the size.
Check out their return policies. When buying lehenga choli online in India, it is important to check out the return policy of the product on the site itself so that you can change it without any complications in case the outfit does not fit well, or you don’t like the design. The return policy also covers FAQs and details about shipping and handling and additional charges or fees for the return.
