8 Bollywood-inspired Cocktail Outfits to Rock the Night Away

We’re sure you have a thousand ideas about all your outfits right from your Mehendi to your wedding lehenga and you can’t wait to just lock down on one look and just wear it already! Your wedding is the one occasion that is more than your outfits. It’s your culture, dreams, tradition and love that you will be wearing on those days which is why your cocktail gown is as important as the other outfits.

While you’ll have to stick to the tradition for the other outfits, the cocktail party is where you can be totally experimental to bring out the diva queen you’ve always dreamed of! Thus we bring to you a list of ultra-classic Bollywood-inspired cocktail outfits that will make you want to step out and dance away in style.

Our queen of fashion knows what she’s bringing to the table with her choice of fun and girly outfit that will eventually make you want to dance to ‘Girls just want to have fun’ at the end of the night. One-shoulders will always retain their place in B-town and glitter, of course, is here to stay!

2. Sonam’s Indo-Ethnic Choice

Call your designer and tell her what you have in mind already!

If you’ve been the girl-next-door throughout your life then this outfit will bring out a new version of you with this colour that is made for Indian skin tones. A little golden accessorizing here, a little side hair parting there and boom! You’ll rock the show better than Kiara I suppose *winks*

4. Priyanka Chopra’s Dreamy Dior

Anushka left us all in awe as usual with her demure yet stunning Sabyasachi sari that had intricate lace over mesh detailing that we simply couldn’t take our eyes off! Her hair and makeup were just perfect, setting a new standard for those who love saris but want to experiment with an edgy one. 

6. Kangana’s Baby Doll Attire

If you’re a bride that hasn’t got enough of the baby doll look, then Kangana gives you the kick to go ahead and devise a baby doll outfit for your cocktail party complete with the 70’s bouffant, winged eyeliner and dance the night away to ‘Baby doll sone di.’ 

7. Shilpa Shetty’s Sparkly Sari

Nothing beats this svelte attire that Shilpa Shetty adorned in glamour with the right accessories, 20’s side-swept waves and ruffles along the edges of the sari adding a ton of character to the overall getup. If you’re a bride that loves it all, go for this look! 

8. Deepika Padukone’s Floral Affair

This cocktail outfit is an option for the bride who loves her florals more than her husband! Florals, if stitched elegantly, could give you the look you’ve been dreaming of, but we’d suggest you ask your designer or Tailor to add some bling to it in the right places! 

We’ve given you our best and hope your designer does the rest!
