Have a look at these blouse back Designs ..

Yuti Designer House has some wonderful designs and here we have compiled some of their outstanding designs on blouse back. There are many designs that they have posted on their page, we have just picked some of the blouse back designs we thought to be different. 

When you are done with selecting the saree for the wedding day, the next question is the blouse design. The back of the blouse is one area where you can try some different elements of design. The front portion is covered by the saree and only the right side of the blouse will have some simple work to corelate to the back neck embroidery work. 

Patterned back designs are in trend. So why fall out of the trend?

The embroidery work used here is a common one with scatter pattern, beads  and crystals etc. One of the the design element that we want to focus on is the shape of the back opening. Instead of the usual circle and oval, a different temple style opening is given. Handworked alphabet latkan of the bride and the groom is a good one instead of adding the full names. 

The sleeve design is the usual style and the back neckline is embroidered in florals and cut worked. The matching bulky latkan is a good element. The main attraction is the hangings on the back of the blouse. Two normal chains and a pearl chain is given here. 

This is heavy handwork. Yuti design house is known for their intricate detailing works. The elephant on the back of the blouse in a varied design opening is simply a class apart. The hanging has elephant and bird alternating. Probably the saree has both these designs on the highlight. 

This is not a much complicated design ,but the uneven cut back opening is worth mentioning. The neckline has been intricately outlined and heavy work adorns the sleeves. 

The heavy beads used on the back of the blouse is the design element we wish to bring to the viewers. These are rather in trend. Similar hangings on the sleeve can compliment the look. 

One of my favorites, where a totally new look has been created with a central piece and chains that hold this piece. The piece is a heavily curated one with exact precision. The add on the beauty factor of the blouse is the usage of multicolor work in the centre of the flowers giving a life to the beige colored blouse.

Latkan Designs Lehenga and Dupatta Ends

 Latkans or hangings have become a necessity for simple lehengas to bridal ones. Bridal lehengas are now mostly worn with double dupattas and then you have to add some element from the skirt latkan. 

The choice of the latkan is a very easy task. One thing we do in our boutique lehengas is that we dont tend to repeat designs. This gives us the advantage of non repeating designs. Here in this write up I will give you a simple classification of the types of latkan and some hints on how to use it.





Starting with custom name latkans. These look good in diamond shaped latkans with the name of the bride and the groom. If you are looking for more personalization like the lehenga of the bride's sister, use wordings accordingly " Dulhan Ki Behen" or so. or "Team Bride". Will give a simple "Advice" here, make sure you use the square latkan with some other elements like the thread tassels or beads or some black squares with simple stone work etc. This will give a rich look to the tassel as a whole. 


If you do not have time to hand make the extra elements, you can easily use store-bought pom-pom hangings. You can easily make the name cusotmization while doing the handwork of the skirt or the blouse . Point to note: make sure to add the name on both sides.

The Vintage Wedding 2021 Sabyasachi Collection

 Lets take a look at the dresses in the Sabyasachi Collection 2021




Peach has become a common color for Reception functions. This lehenga is rather subtle as the shade has been kept simple. Both the dupattas are peach. If you are trying to custom make your own sabyasachi style lehenga, you can rush to get  a tassel border dyeable dupata. The use of broad border for the odni dupatta was a good move. The skirt has simple gota work. A good one for an evening event. I am not sure if this one has the mantra work on the lace border. 


What is designing without a combination of red and white for a Calcutta based Bengali. The red and cream combination brings the livid impact of Indian culture. The bag with the trending lace border is an add on element. The embroidery work on the blouse sleeve is so classy and rich and with such perfection. Do not miss out on the " Aayushmati bava " lace on the border in a lovely lavender shade. Sabyasachi dresses have always given the courage to try something different with colors. 

This is my personal favorite. Most lovely element is the flairs. It has beautifully folded in and the broad border has been achieved by adding several layers of borders. The dupatta as the earlier design has been tasseled. 


Iam not so good at keenly noticing menswear. But this one caught my attending with the out the cliche pink colored sherwani beautifully carried . The post has over 7000 likes in 24 hours. Why should only the women wear the ornaments and the banarasi. The borders and the banarasi has given the royal look to this otherwise simple costume. 
Probably everyone should shift from wearing double dupattas in different color shades. The odni dupatta has some simple buttas in it and the other one has been kept plain for the different factor. Also note the tassels. The skirt is intricately crafted with laces. You can simply pick a good combination of laces in varied sizes to serve your purpose. The lehenga fabric will be out in the market sooner or later. but before that means, you can get it embroidered. 

Peach again. The jacquards have been a great fashion of the yesteryears and bringing them back, Sabyasachi collections have done some splendid job. Pair it up with some good stash of borders and an organza dupatta. Keep a note of the accessories. And the must have sabyasachi clutch bag. 


Baby pink organza self embroidered saree. The killer look is the Jaguar on the purse. The blouse sleeve is the king element of the outfit. 



This is a lively mix and match of peachy pink, red , orange and green. A play of colors for an enthu Indian bride. Different fabrics have been used for the blouse body and the sleeve, would you dare to wear one like this if not for Sabyasachi? 



Loved the shade of the saree. Self design organza sari with the lovely sabya borders and accessories. Have finished the look. When you are designing your dress with a Boutique near your place, you can request them for a matching potli bag. Most of them will help you create one to match your outfit. 

A step away from the usual panelled heavy sabyasachi lehengas, this one is umbrella cut with a running design. If  i am not wrong these are digital printed or embroidered. And if it is embroidery, hats off to the man on the machine. 

This is another variation of the previous design with several colors in a design. The skirt is a Mughal style design. The heavy sleeves match that of the skirt. 


A unique piece in a unique shade with beautiful detailing. a good combination of borders have been used.
