You cannot deny the fact that lehenga design is all about flamboyance and larger than life looks. The flare, the detailed work and the amount of fabric which goes into making a lehenga, can leave anyone awestruck. And of course, when someone twirls while wearing a lehenga, well, that is indeed a sight for sore eyes. Of course, the saree has its own grace and charm, but there is no way it can be compared to a lehenga.

We see saree designs changing, along with their lengths and their styling ideas, every year. However, lehengas always remain the same. Of course, we have more variety to choose from in the current market, but the three elements of lehenga, choli and dupatta are still the same.

Mermaid or fish cut lehengas used to be a rage among women in the earlier times. However, some people still prefer these lehengas as they accentuate your figure.
