Mohey's Silk Lehengas: Timeless Elegance Meets Modern Charm
Silk lehengas have been an integral part of Indian women's celebration wear for generations, and our collection beautifully captures their enduring allure. With roots tracing back to ancient India, where a three-piece attire consisting of the antriya, uttariya, and stanapatta was worn, the lehenga has evolved into the stunning ensemble we know today. Silk lehengas in particular have remained a favourite for their elegance and durability.
We blend traditional craftsmanship with contemporary designs to create silk lehenga designs that suit the modern Indian woman. Our silk lehengas for women incorporate cultural heritage through the use of region-specific embroidery techniques like gota, shisha, zari, and zardozi. The result is a collection of traditional silk lehenga designs that celebrate India's diverse textile traditions while catering to current trends and sensibilities.

FAQs
What are the different types of silk fabrics used in lehengas?
Some popular silk fabrics used in lehengas include art silk, brocade silk, raw silk, Banarasi silk, and net. Each fabric has its unique texture, sheen, and draping quality, lending a distinct look and feel to the lehenga. While brocade silk offers rich patterns, raw silk provides a matte, sophisticated finish, and Banarasi silk exudes opulence with intricate weaving.
How should I care for and maintain a silk lehenga?
Silk lehengas require delicate care to preserve their beauty, texture, and longevity. Always opt for dry cleaning instead of regular washing, as silk is a sensitive fabric that can lose its sheen and softness if exposed to harsh detergents or water. When storing your lehenga, keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading. Wrapping it in a soft muslin cloth adds an extra layer of protection against dust, moisture, and discolouration. Avoid hanging heavy silk lehengas for long periods, as this can distort their shape—fold them neatly and store them flat. Additionally, keep moth repellents nearby to safeguard the fabric from pests.
Are silk lehengas suitable for all body types?
Yes, silk lehengas are versatile and can be styled to suit various body types. Choose a lehenga style that flatters your body shape – A-line lehengas suit most body types, while mermaid-style lehengas accentuate curves. Pair your lehenga with a blouse style that balances your proportions for a flattering look.
Can silk lehengas be customised in terms of design and fit?
Yes, silk lehengas can be customised to match your unique style and fit preferences. Many designers and boutiques offer bespoke tailoring services, allowing you to choose everything from the fabric and embroidery patterns to the silhouette and embellishments. Whether you prefer intricate hand embroidery, modern cuts, or traditional motifs, customisation ensures that your lehenga aligns perfectly with your vision. Additionally, adjustments can be made to the blouse design, dupatta draping, and overall fit to enhance comfort and elegance, ensuring a flawless look for any special occasion.
What occasions are appropriate for wearing a silk lehenga?
Silk lehengas are a timeless choice for a variety of grand occasions, exuding elegance and sophistication. They are ideal for weddings, engagements, receptions, and festive celebrations like Diwali, Navratri, and Eid, where traditional attire is cherished. The luxurious fabric and intricate craftsmanship make them perfect for events where you want to make a statement. For daytime ceremonies or pre-wedding functions, opt for lighter designs with subtle embroidery, while heavily embellished or brocade silk lehengas add grandeur to evening receptions and formal gatherings. Their versatility ensures a regal look for every special occasion.
