Definition of bridal wear changes in India, says designer Gaurav Gupta

Gaurav Gupta’s couture collection inspired from the “sculptures found in the realm of a mythological forest”, with actress Aditi Rao Hydari as showstopper was the finale at the latest India Couture Week (ICW). As per Gupta, the collection has been inspired by nature, forest and like a parallel world which is happening on the moon in a fairytale way.

It is all these art like sculptures made into garments which are wearable sculptures. It’s just about celebrating fantasy, Gupta explains. He believes India has couture “thriving” as it is one of the places in world which consumes couture. It’s only been consumed in India or the Middle East.

Using his signature fabrics like chiffon, crepe, tulle, net and lace, the collection had pieces with exaggerated shoulders, fishtail gowns, and body hugging dresses and much more in colours like grey, blue and green. Gupta said many of the brides he designs for wear gowns on their special day, or go for an amalgamation of a gown with something Indian. There are new silhouettes, colours and a lot of experimentation within that and nowadays brides only wear bridal on their wedding day, for the rest of the days it is new global couture.
