Days after Minal’s Sept. 10 wedding, Abrar gave a deeper insight into the creation of her dress, taking to his Instagram stories to share videos and pictures of artisans at work. “Making of Minal’s bridal. Stunning shade of cranberry red with deep maroon applique incorporated with kamdani and zardozi,” he shared.
Abrar also shared that the elaborate bridal had 38 kalis (panels) which gave the dress the perfect twirl-worthy volume. “Over 55 artisans worked day and night to create this magical piece of couture,” he said, likening it to a ‘creative village’ at work.
We have to say, the hard work really shone through at Minal’s big day as she twirled and posed away in her one-of-a-kind bridal couture.
