Elegant Shawls for Brides and Grooms: How to Compliment Your Wedding Attire

Shawls have been a part of Indian culture for centuries. They have been part of almost everyone’s attire in almost every culture around the world and India. From a common man to a king, to a common man, shawls are being donned by everyone. Similarly, they have been part of attire for special occasions, like wedding dresses and wedding gifts.

Parents of both the bride and the groom are known to buy and store Pashmina shawls years before their children are even thinking about marriage. Various cultural and economic reasons prompt this shopping pattern. Eventually they also look forward to the day of their children’s wedding so as to either drape the shawl on their daughter-in-law or son-in-law, or to present them as a wedding gift. Families safely treasure and keep these shawls for future generations, adding on to their collections by investing in new shawls.

If not as ceremonial or as gifts, in Indian weddings, shawls also play an important role in the bride’s and groom’s attire. In this blog, we will explore different styles and shawls that complement your wedding attire.

Choosing the Perfect Shawl for Brides and Grooms

A wedding dress is not just some attire, it is about tradition, elegance, and personal style.

For a winter wedding, a shawl is the accessory you would require. A shawl gives you warmth with a touch of sophistication and showcases cultural richness. So let’s delve into the world of shawls and find the perfect shawl that goes with your wedding attire.

Pashmina Shawls:

In Indian culture, a wedding is one of the most important and meaningful moments of a person’s life. So what can be more meaningful than a Pure Pashmina Shawl to wear along with your wedding dress? Pashmina Shawls are known for their lightweight and warmth, and that too with a touch of elegance and class.

Kani Weave Shawls:

These shawls are famous for their intricate designs and patterns. This weaving technique got its fame in the Mughal era and is now beloved by all. Most of the Kani weave shawls are made of Pashmina, which makes the shawl perfect for the wedding attire of the bride and groom.

Ari embroidery Shawls:

Any piece of fabric becomes a classic with the Ari embroidery work and when it is done on a Pashmina Shawl, it becomes timeless. The fine needlework lifts the look and style of the shawl to another level. The artwork, intricate patterns that include floral motifs or paisley, and the luxurious merino wool create something that becomes the perfect match for brides with a touch of elegance.

Sozni embroidery Shawls:

These types of shawls come with meticulous craftsmanship. Usually made from Pashmina, Sozni embroidery Shawls are renowned for their delicate designs and intricate patterns. This special shawl is a must-have for those bride and grooms who love true craftsmanship.

Apart from the shawls mentioned above, there are many more varieties of shawls available that come from almost all parts of the world signifying cultural and traditional values. In many cultures, a shawl like the Pure Pashmina Shawl is passed down like an heirloom. So, when you wear a shawl on your wedding day, you are actually representing your culture and your family’s traditions.

How to select the perfect shawl?

As mentioned earlier, different types of shawls come with different types of designs and patterns. For couples who want to coordinate their wedding attire, choosing a similar shawl can give the bride and groom a harmonious look. And when we say similar shawl, this doesn’t mean the same pieces or colour. This simply means choosing shawls with the same tone, design, pattern, or colour. For example, if a bride chooses an Ari embroidery shawl, to match her and have a harmonious look, the groom can pick a Sozni embroidery shawl. These two shawls feature delicate patterns and meticulous artwork, which ultimately complement each other.

Final Thoughts

Anyone would want the best shawl that goes perfectly well with their wedding outfit. So when you are selecting a shawl, always keep some things in consideration, like climate, traditional and cultural heritage, and your wedding attire. You’ll find a variety of shawls in KCS Kashmir Shawl Emporium in a variety of styles and designs with the facility of shipping worldwide.
