In a recent interview, Tarun Tahiliani said about his bridal designs “I think the key bridal trends for 2022 are the long sheer veil, which is a Tarun Tahiliani staple, but now people are on the lookout for veils with trails. The second fun trend is that brides seem to be coming up with their own baraats. I think there is no more ‘kanyadaan’, there is only ‘kanyamaan’, so in an assertion of their own independence, brides are totally coming further and coming as they wish. The last trend that I have noticed is brides looking natural with their hair open and wearing one piece of jewelry as opposed to the overkill that has happened so far. They are looking more and more like themselves, which is a beautiful trend.
