Pakistani Bridal Lehnga Biography

All sizes of Lehenga choli are available for women. Lehenga Cholis are the most attractive and favorite dress for Pakistani weddings. If we talk about history, it was Moghuls who brought this exclusive skirt and blouse combination from India. The trend has changed now as brides are more likely to choose Lehenga Choli for her wedding than a sari. Lehenga choli is also a perfect dress to wear for all ages of women. Women also love to wear Lehenga Choli for formal occasions and dress occasions.

Extremely good-looking and fit to all female figures, these Lehenga dresses are hand decorated. In ancient times, these Lehenga designs turned out to be legendary and were made with real gold, silver and precious stones.

Initially, the lehenga was just a bit of fabric tied around the waist with the ends of the cloth left loose. The fabric was tied around the waist with the help of a metal strap. However, as this dress gained its popularity, it went through special transitions to go well with the expediency of the women. The metal strap was swapped by stitching a piece of fabric to the waist of the lehenga called nepha.

The lehenga hit its highest point of development under the Mughal kings. Indian queens introduce this dress against the affluent Muslim pehsvaz dress of the Mughal royal women. The relations between the two communities became strong when Mughal kings organized bazaars where both the sellers and the buyers were women. The dupatta was a mark of respect for the women. It was usually two meters in length and one and a half meters in width. It was usually worn to cover the head and to enhance the loveliness of the lehenga. The material used for the dupatta was usually thin so lace and ornaments were added to give more weight to the cloth. The material used to make the lehenga is actually unchanged to those used in the era of the great Mughal King, Akbar; silks and brocades.
