Lehenga Wedding Dress Biogarphy
Source(google.com.pk)In India the original sari form is still widely worn by Indian ladies in every part of India. This is essentially the same style of dress as worn by ancestral Indian women hundreds of years ago. Whilst younger women favour western dress especially jeans and tops, many wear traditional dress too.
Teenage girls wearing traditional Indian dress don a pared down version of a half sari - a langa (skirt), a choli (blouse top) and a scarf/stole. saris are usually worn over a petticoat (called ghagara, pavada, chaniyo and shaya according to the region).
A sari is worn with a blouse top called the choli, which is also called ravika. The sari is worn with short or long cholis or the Kurti top.

The Sari CholiWhere women wear saris they also wear a top called a choli, which is like a blouse but allows for a bare midriff. You can see examples where women don saris and wear the choli all over India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.
Choli Top & Sari - Vibrant Fashion Week Gujarat India 2010The choli is an under bodice that like the Ghaghara petticoat acts as a foundation for the top layer of the sari, but unlike the Western petticoat, the Indian choli can be quite visible.
The choli can be cropped short and snappy, almost like a built-up bra and finishing under the bustline revealing bare midriff flesh. A U-scoop neckline is simple, and can be cut to be revealing or not making it easy to wear and easy on the eye.
The cropped design is suitable for the hotter regions of the sub-continent, but the choli can also be longer to cover more flesh rather as an over-blouse does. The choli top can have a V, round, boat, sweetheart, square, wrap-over, button front neckline or shoestring strap. It may be, with/without sleeves, one sleeve, one shouldered, short or longer or so brief it's almost a bikini bra top.
The traditional silk choli complements the sari fabrics very well. Shimmering contrast warp and weft yarns create fabulous pattern effects like this designer choli left. The choli can act as the accent that pulls the outfit together in the way that a western woman uses a great coloured bag or belt to achieve the same effect.
Modern designer cholis are often simple bandeaus and bra styles. Cut-out keyhole backs and modern knit materials are all part of the newer choli designs.
