Imagine gliding down your mehendi or haldi function looking like a ray of sunshine! The bright yellow skirt with garden motifs and matching dupatta, compliments the top beautifully.
Anita Dongre set a new benchmark with her ready to wear line, all of which was made with eco-friendly fabrics. We loved that she included pockets in lehengas! It’s going to be a lifesaver for all of us 🙂
