Wedding Fashion: The Latest Choli and Saree Blouse Styles

With Wedding season in full swing it's time to pull out your traditional party wear or better still shop for the seasons latest styles. With sarees and lehengas being the preferred attire for most women at Indian weddings I thought I'd share the seasons latest Choli/sari blouse designs.

The Indian choli is a short midriff-baring top worn with either sari or lehenga alos called a blouse. It can be quite a versatile garment, which can be adapted to a variety of styles. Since usually the front of the blouse is covered using a dupatta or in the case of a saree the Pallu. So essentially Choli's have elaborate backs which can also be quite revealing and sexy.

But first for those of you not very familiar with what a choli, lehenga or sari is learn about it in: Indian Traditional Wear: A Glossary to Indian Attire
