The bridal Lehenga is decorated with many ornaments, to give the appearance of a very rich and luxurious. In most cases, heavy embroidery (with silver or gold thread), stones, crystals and beads used to decorate the bride Lehenga and give the feel of the kingdom.
The dress comprises of a lehenga (skirt), choli (blouse) and dupatta/chunni (stole). The lehenga is an ankle-length skirt, which is draped around the waist, while choli is a midriff-revealing blouse, usually with tight sleeves, shirt sleeves and low neck and back. The dupatta/chunni is just like a stole, which might be slung around the neck or hung from one of the shoulders.
Earlier, Lehenga used to be worn by women on an everyday basis. These days, it is reserved for special occasions only, like wedding or a festival.
