Mehndi Dresses for Brides: Ghararas, Lehengas and Frocks

Frock, gharara or lehenga for the mehndi

If you picture a frock for the mehndi, the closest shapes are the angrakha frock, which wraps across the bodice and falls long over a lehenga, slim trousers or a shalwar, and the long peshwas, a full-length frock worn over a lehenga. Ghararas are fitted to the knee and flared from a gathered joint, in the farshi cut to the floor. Lehengas pair a choli or kurti with a full skirt. Explore the wrap shape in our angrakha frocks for brides, or the skirted styles on the mehndi lehenga page.

Which colours suit the bridal mehndi outfit?

Yellow and mustard are the classic choice, and greens run from mint and pistachio to sage, emerald and bottle green; the mehndi sharara page is where to compare ghararas in mehndi colours. Peach, orange and nude pink suit a softer mehndi look. Ivory, off-white and gold ghararas are made for the nikkah, so start with the brighter shades for the mehndi itself. Embroidery comes in rose gold, silver or gold, built from dabka, salma sitara, nakshi, kora and zari, with sequins, pearls, gota or tassels.

Questions about bridal mehndi outfits

How does sizing work?

Every design is stitched after you order, either in a standard size or in Custom Size, made exactly to the measurements you send. Our workshop works in inches, with centimetres shown for reference, and if you fall between two standard sizes, choose the larger one. Our team contacts you after ordering to confirm your measurements.

Can I see my outfit while it is being made?

Yes. For bridal orders you can ask for progress photos and close-up videos during production, which helps if you are matching jewellery or shoes. If you want a design change, tell us before you order; changes that add fabric, embroidery or labour are priced and agreed before work starts.

Do you have a shop in France?

No. We sell online only and have no showroom. Each outfit is made in our own workshops in Pakistan and couriered directly to your address, anywhere in France. If you have a question about a design, colour or size before ordering, ask us on WhatsApp.
