For a bride...
For brides embracing florals this season, stylist Khyati Busa recommends, “If you’re a bride who loves prints, choose daisy-inspired pastels with minimal embroidery for a soft look. For something more playful, go for floral appliqués in bright colours, highlighted with gold or silver embroidery. It adds a unique charm while still being bridal.”

"Florals are always a summer favourite. They’re simple yet versatile enough to experiment with. If you’re attending a wedding, you can opt for a floral sari paired with an embroidered blouse or a printed lehenga for a more playful vibe."
— Khyati Busa, celebrity stylist
"Florals are inherently romantic and full of character, making them perfect for weddings. Floral embroidered lehengas are timeless and elegant. They work across occasions – be it haldi, sangeet or the big day. Florals will never go out of style."
— Isha Bhansali, celebrity stylist
"Floral motifs are timeless, but for summer weddings, they offer a beautiful synergy of elegance and ease. My suggestion is to embrace fluid, breathable fabrics like organza, mul, or linen — these allow floral prints to flow effortlessly and keep you light on your feet through long celebrations. The key is to let the print breathe — choose silhouettes that move with you."

How to style floral prints
When it comes to silhouettes, opt for styles that feel effortless yet make a statement:
• Nothing rivals the grace of a six-yard sari, especially in botanical prints. It’s a free-size investment and a canvas of self-expression Look to hand-painted fabrics
• A lehenga paired with a sheer cape in place of a dupatta lends a modern edge while staying rooted in tradition
• A floral-print kaftan is another stylish, dance-friendly option — perfect for mehendi brunches or poolside celebrations
