The most traditional accessory that women used to wear with lehenga choli was a Bindi, but nowadays, the Indian fashion industry has replaced the trend of wearing bindis with a Matha Patti or Maang tikkas. It was considered that Bindi shows the energy and the strength of women, but now, women avoid this accessory because of the time that it takes in the wearing and the right placement of the accessory. This is also because of the fear that it may come off during the function.

However, if you want to achieve a traditional look, you should always go for Bindi, and should select the size carefully, after considering your face cut. If you don't want to have to worry about it coming off, Matha Pattis and over-sized Maang Tikkas are also an option.

Bangles

Bangles are the most important and noticeable accessory that goes well with a lehenga. Thus, the selection of bangles should be according to your attire. If you are planning to wear Silk or Jamawar Lehenga, then, Silver Kada bangles should be your first choice. If the lehenga is flared, and is in chiffon material, wearing a thick layer of matte metal bangles with the matching shade of lehenga will look absolutely exquisite.

However, if the lehenga is really heavy and embellished, you can wear Kangans, a chura and some heavy rings. However, if you do not like heavy ornate jewelry, and want to keep your look simple, you can go for simple diamond bracelets or bangles as well. This can also help you rock the stage.

Footwear

Drape Nicely

Nothing changes up your look faster than a dupatta drape (nothing non-surgical anyway! ;) You could have worn your anarkali/ lehenga once and had your photos all over Facebook but change up the drape the next time, and it will look like a spanking new outfit. Even for brides - adding a net dupatta, or re-draping an old one is a sure-fire way to stand out.
