A guest outfit has a different job from a bridal one. It has to survive a long day, a dance floor and a seat in a car, and it should not compete with the couple. These are 36 pieces from designers’ own websites, with prices in rupees, grouped by the kind of day you are dressing for. Most are ready to ship, which matters when the first muhurats are only days away.
