Our country’s
busiest season for getting hitched has arrived — The Wedding Season. The
to-be-brides must be super excited, tensed and hyper at the same time with
bookings, shopping, invitations, gifts and the most important her trousseau. The word trousseau comes from
the old French word trusse that means
bundle. This bundle is known as a romantic collection of stuff
that a bride collects and takes with her when she furnishes her new marital
life. Families spend months amassing the inventory of must-haves for the
to-be-bride. A girls family typically her mother prepares for her new life by
collecting bed linens, clothes, sleepwear, cushions, sexy lingerie,
table-linens, toiletries, luggage bags, nice holiday dresses, tops, and most
important of all suits for every occasion.
Being a newlywed Indian bride,
you surely must have the most outstanding suits when stepping out for dinners
or formal gatherings. The functions and dinners followed by the
wedding day require as much importance as the other functions. You being the
couple of the hour at every occasion you go for at least the first year of your
marriage are expected to look the best.
