Dramatic Wedding Culture Between Neighbors

Viva India!

· Sari

Probably the most popular traditional Indian dress worn by women is the sari. It usually consists of a long piece of cloth wrapped around a woman’s body and symbolizes chastity and femininity of the Indian woman. These days however, you can bring more life to the sari as a wedding gown, by fusing it with the latest wedding fashion designs that suit your tastes. You can also add more color and vibrance to this outfit by using a bright red fabric adorned with intricate patterns, so as the cultural influence remains present.

China

If you want to see where bright red weddings usually take place, then China is the place to go. Brides wear the traditional crimson cheongsam when committing themselves to their groom, since red is the color of love, prosperity, passion and good fortune. The closed-neck cheongsam dresses have become a popular wedding dress especially during the sixties. Thus if you choose to wear a Chinese cheongsam, you not only fuse two different cultures, but as well two different fashion genres in special event.

Malaysian wedding dresses

Thai wedding dresses can be a silk wedding dress or traditional handwoven cotton wedding dress or even made of modern synthetics.

Spice Up with a taste of Southeast Asia

The countries of Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam are known for their own set of traditions and practices, as well as their intricate designs and patterns which reflect their culture.

Japanese Kimono Wedding Dress

Indonesian patterns suit well to your gown, especially when you opt to wear a corset. They can also be donned on a Japanese obi, that is if you opt for a truly Asian-inspired wedding. Malaysian outfits on the other hand deal more with Muslim designs and patterns, while Thai and Vietnamese motifs are best suited with water-garden weddings. You can also see the brides shine like red rubies during their wedding day.

Vietnamese wedding ao dai

So, since fusion is the it-word in today’s wedding fashion trend, then why not fuse these influences to spice up your wedding? Not only will you have the most memorable wedding event, you’d sure be walking down the aisle as a red hot bride!

I am planning for my wedding and dare to be unique. The groom and bride would like to have the dress in RED and GOLD Asian fabric. I will need various web-sites to choose the fabric that will suit me. Please, I am open to any suggestions. Thank yoy

Is it a taboo to wear a red wedding dress? If not, why are so few wearing them. Is it against a religion? Is there a negative stigma attached to it. Red is associated to love and romance isn't it?
