The Story of the Sabyasachi Lehenga

Apart from her groom, what's that one thing that almost every Indian bride wants on her wedding day?

[asiddi]

As a 90's kid, I am fascinated by Manish Malhotra over Sabyasachi, even though both are good.
Can't afford any of them 🤣🤣🤣

[pankajabhuyan]

Not "all indian brides" want sabyasachi lehenga😌.... We North- East people really very proud and happy to wear traditional bridal dress woven by the most talented weavers ❤️ we don't even want to look at those repeatedly same designed sabyasachi lehengas

[moribantarou]

Normalise not status signalling on weddings by not over spending on lehengas and use the money to buy what's important

[naushika]

another reason why title is misleading - we south indians wear silk sarees. people here dont care about sabyasachi lehenga lol. we dont even wear lehenga in wedding. so how can they say " all indian brides" ? even women from south are indians only lol.

[sangeetarao]

Whatever they say.. for middle class family and the poorer ones don't give a s**t to these lehngas...for them it is just waste of money..and that's actually right..it is nothing more than that.
Also his lehngas promote the idea of grand wedding, the purpose for which a girl's father spends his accumulated lifetime's wealth.👏

He truly is a humble human being. His stores are handcrafted pockets of old india, and the era of art.
His work is unique and gleams of our culture and history.
I get if u think it's too expensive but honestly if u observe it, every detail is worth it.
It's art. Pure art.

it's not about status... it's about wearing something unique, exquisite and personal on ur wedding day that u will look back upon forever after

normalise letting brides do what they want with their hard earned money rather than judging them I would say

[maanikroda]

Lol! This isn't what every middle-class bride thinks.
Maybe this is what every upper-class bride thinks or every heroine to be bride thinks.

[Truthisbitterrrr]

Sabyasachi has so many brides but in fact he is still unmarried.... Everyone wants to be sabyasachi bride but only for lehengas and jewellery 🙂

[kreata]

I wore a normal saree on my wedding day n invested the rest of the money in stocks..

[ashavijwda]

In South India..we don't wear it..I guess 90% who can afford doesn't wishlist it..Don't normalize it as "almost every Indian bride "..I got to know about this brand through band baaja bride..I respect his way of designing, details and his passion..even if someday I may afford it, I don't splurge on it

[samk]

And who made you the spokesperson of "all indian brides"???

[serendipity]

Not all the middle class girls dream about sabyasachi lehngas. They just want to look beautiful at their wedding day and a 30k to 40k lehnga is enough for that yes sabyasachi is one of the most talented designer of our times and yes it's expensive but that's because he put a lot of effort to make each masterpiece. From dyeing to hand embroidery to final dress. If someone can afford than obviously they had a beautiful taste. Nothing to be bitter about. We can clearly afford same lehngas within our prize range

Capitalism is the most successful ideology. Took the most important day of a h girls life and made it bout lenhga

[dr_himshikha]

I actually want to go to a courthouse and sign them papers. My introvert ass will be exhausted doing all this Jesus

[gardening-ftku]

As a south indian i had no idea who she is… we are proud to wearing kanchipuram silk saree!

[vesper]

I am so sick of these over the top, expensive brands... Often applauded for keeping or promoting culture and arts.
Arts and culture have been around for ages, these fancy celebrities and their posh designers did very little to further it, i'd rather support small businesses/artisans from the local community.

[choudhary_harsha_]

How amazing it would be if all girls can afford it🥺❤️ this symbolises Indian wear so why not every indian can wear it!

[indiangirl]

I am an Indian girl and I DONT want Sabyasachi or Manish Malhotra.. Just normal ..!! Remember by memories not clothes..

[alpanashahalpana]

And women who buy the original ones have a common, trademark picture in their wedding album with the lehenga hanging on the hook and the 'Sabyasachi' lable clearly in focus . And then pretend that they wanted something 'unique, exquisite and personal' 😂

[anisha_]

Is it just me and my mum who have wanted this lol ? Like I literally grew up watching band baaja bride and I loved it oml 🥺🥺🥺 and the lehengas are so prettyyy
