Concept Draping & Shoot Styling

Coordination Features
- Couple Matching: Option to color-coordinate a male partner's stole or dhoti border with the female outfit for a cohesive frame (subject to inventory).
- Accessory Curation: Detailed selection of belts (Vaddanam) and jewelry to match the specific theme (Traditional vs. Indo-Western).
Fit & Logistics
- On-Body Adjustments: Ensuring the modified drape holds its shape perfectly for the duration of the shoot.
- Restoration: Includes the labor of deconstructing the styling and restoring the base garment to its original condition after return.
About Bespoke Styling & Alterations for Rentals
Why Settle for Standard Rentals?
Most rentals just hand you what's on the rack. Here, I want you to get exactly what you imagine—even if it's a rental. No more compromising when you find a gorgeous blouse but the lehenga isn't your style, or you want something special for your pre-wedding shoot.
What I Do Differently
- Bespoke styling: I help you put together your dream look, right down to the dupatta drape.
- Mix and match: Not stuck with one combo—pair that zardozi blouse with a different skirt, choose your own dupatta, or even blend styles for a totally new vibe.
- Custom tailored rental lehenga: If you need something totally fresh, I design and create it from scratch—even for rentals.
- Alterations for the perfect fit: Every rental is altered to your measurements, not just a “close enough” fit.

At our DT Bridal Studio, we handcraft many pieces with maggam and zardozi work, delicate embroidery, and custom touches like velvet blouses or cancan saree drapes. You get that designer feel without the buy-only price tag.

My Story
Hey, I’m Vijay, and Designer Trends is my baby. Always had a soft spot for maggam work and those lush silks – you know, our traditional stuff. Saw folks wanting to look fab for weddings, baby showers, but buying those heavy outfits for just one day? Doesn’t make sense, right? That’s why I started renting out designer pieces. Best part? Seeing someone’s face light up when they find ‘the one’. Once, we even whipped up a new skirt from a saree in two days for a shoot. That’s what keeps me going.
