Not just a Fashion Cliché

In the past when one thinks of a thick, functional though not fashionable coat for any weather or unpleasant outdoor situations, the Barbour coat comes to mind, as for a long time it was the most used coat in Britain for just such situations, used by royals and regulars alike, but the image of this clothing has been changing, remained functional but becoming more fashionable as well.

Now and Then

Barbour has always portrayed an image of steadfast reliability and functionality, though often its clothing and particularly its famous coat has not portrayed a positive image when it came to stylish attire. Through in recent trends it has become of greater demand to have clothing that is not just stylish but also functional and durable, especially when it comes to Britain's often windy and wet climate and erratic weather, and thus a niche formed where this brand of clothing could slip into. This thus provided the increased demand for the functionality of trends and while still keeping its influence's of classic and iconic traditional styles, which has made the clothing so durable and likeable in the past and has now created the comeback of this brand in the present.

Top of Fashion

This iconic jacket and the other clothing and attire available by this well beloved and recognized British brand has truly become a current and top contender at the height of fashion, its popularity returning as it has become a fashionable trend to be worn by both the British Royalty, aristocrats and regulars alike. The coat especially has had great success and grown as a brand, especially in the form of being a great attire addition in outdoor activities and is now excepted as a functional jacket that can be placed over anything, from a causal pair of jeans and t-shit to that skimpy and sparkly evening dress that does not do every well in the rain. It has now become the essential way to keep out the rain and wind, whatever the occasion.

New Generation Popularity

The Barbour brand produces clothing and accessories that cater for men and women, as well as children of all ages. It has come back from being simply a necessity in clothing to highly fashionable and influential stylish attire to complete any outfit in outdoor activities and helping to tame that iconic British weather that made it so popular in the first place.

Bridal Lehengas For The Killer Looks on D Day!

Killer looks are something you cannot do without for the lady who has already made the kill on her D day. You simply cannot imagine a bride without one of the finest and heavily decorated lehengas hugging her stature like there is no tomorrow. There are bridal lehengasfor the different occasions that go to complete the entire function that we call as marriage.

Be it the Sangeet ceremony, or the main wedding or the reception etc., there is a bridal lehenga designed and made to suit the occasion in the most appropriate manner. It is simply amazing the level of embellishments that you can add to your lehengas. Not that it is any less attractive in its most basic form. Still, the more the merrier.

Lehangas are legacy from the Mughals!

Lehengas comprise of the long umbrella like flowing skirt like garment, the choli and the dupatta. This was how the Mughals left their legacy and till today, the lehengas including the bridal lehengas have retained this age old format . Even design and style wise, there is hardly any major change that has come through and the valued clientele continue to lap up the finery turned out by the traditional artisans as well as the more established brands (who fall in the organized sector) continue with the age old patterns and stylizations.

It is very interesting to note here that centuries ago, women of all ages used to wear lehenga cholis in the same way they do so today jeans and T-shirts. It was a daily wear for them.

Bridal lehengas by their very definition and more heavy and serious affairs. Women plan, brain storm and discuss for months on end before they are finally happy with the choice of the bridal lehenga arrived at for their wedding.

Jar dozy, sequins, zari work, latkans (something similar to tassels), bead work, form the decoration that you can liberally look forward to splashing on your bridal lehenga. The material, of course, has to be very high quality silk, or a mix of synthetic materials. Brocades and heavy embroidery are, of course something that forms the basic character of your bridal wear.

Red, beige, saffron, or a heady mix of three or more colours form the obvious and much sought after colour choices. The Artistic Mehendi Party Lehenga is something that we would recommend strongly here.

The would bride need not even step out and do her wedding trousseau shopping. Online retailing of bridal lehengas and other bridal wear and accessories is big business in India with several web portals doing roaring business out of it.
