Curate your bridal looks inspired by the timeless icon, Madhuri Dixit. Take notes on how to dress up elegantly from the legend herself!
If there’s one woman who is ageing backwards and slaying every ensemble, desi or western, it’s Madhuri Dixit Nene! Whether she’s wearing a timeless saree or glamming up the contemporary style, her graceful fashion sense is out of this world. And let’s be honest, if anyone can make a pastel lehenga or a ruffle saree look like an absolute bridal fantasy, it’s her! So, on her 58th birthday, the Wedding Affair has brought you some of her best outfits that you can add to your bridal trousseau!
Timeless Sarees
When one thinks of Madhuri Dixit, one thinks of the iconic sarees she has worn and continues to wear as well as the elegance with which she carries them. Be it her saree look from Hum Aapke Hain Koun or the music video Kaate Nahi Kat Te, she’s defined decades of saree goals, each look more graceful than the last. Her legacy of these iconic sarees continues to appear in contemporary looks as well. From shimmer drapes to romantic florals, her saree looks are a whole mood.
The silver glam saree has a modern edge, making it perfect for brides who want to go bold yet sophisticated. Ideal for Sangeet or a cocktail night, pair it with diamond jewellery and bold eyes to complete the look. Her floral organza saree is perfect for mehendi or day time engagement and you can opt for her gold shimmer saree for the reception.

Elegant Lehengas
Lehenga is the perfect celebration of drama and grace, everything that Madhuri Dixit is. So, what better way to look for inspiration than from her closet itself! Whether it’s a richly embroidered piece for a grand celebration or a lighter silhouette for post-wedding dinners, the diva of Bollywood has looks to serve for everyone.
For a daytime wedding ceremony or roka function, you can go with the regal ivory lehenga with intricate sequin and thread embroidery, and for a mehendi or sangeet night, you can go with the pastel multi-coloured lehenga with heavy jewellery. This will bring out a playful yet luxe vibe to your overall look. If you want a lehenga inspiration for your reception or engagement ceremony, go with Maduri’s lavender and white embroidered lehenga that’ll give you a soft, romantic and dreamy look.
Contemporary Dresses
Ditching the desi, the modern brides are also opting for western dresses for their various wedding functions. These give you an effortless glam look and are perfect for cocktail nights and post-wedding celebrations.
The lavender off-shoulder gown is an ideal outfit for a DJ night. Its satin bodice gives you a highly sophisticated look paired up with glam. You can go for Nene’s classic red draped gown for your reception night or pre-wedding photoshoot and wear the black dress for a bachelorette or an after-party. Brides looking for a contemporary and bold look can take inspiration from these mesmerising outfits.
Classic Indian Suits
For Indian suits, take cues from Madhuri Dixit. From flowing anarkalis to chic straight cut suits, she is a walking inspo-board for every desi wedding function! Just like our cutie, Indian suits beautifully combine tradition and versatility, making them a must-have for every bridal wardrobe!
If you’re opting for a suit for your mehendi ceremony, go with a mirror work suit that’ll give you a playful vibe, appropriate for the function. You can opt for the embroidered anarkali for your engagement ceremony or the reception brunch, which’ll give you a regal look without being overly heavy. For a family gathering or post-wedding lunches, go with the rich brown embroidered suit that’ll give you a timeless look. Style your hair in loose waves with neutral makeup and you’re good to go!
