The ever-evolving landscape of Indian bridal fashion witnessed a dynamic shift as India-born artist Alaiia Gujral wore a sculpted corset for her wedding celebrations in Udaipur.
Gujral, a noted art collector, paraded a seamless merger of tradition and avant-garde fashion by adorning a sculpted corset custom-designed by Misho, a Mumbai-based label known for its artsy jewellery designs.
Gujral, a noted art collector and curator, envisioned her bridal attire to double as a wearable sculpture. She chose a custom-crafted 24k Misho couture corset to serve as her wedding armour, pairing it with a classic ivory skirt and cape.

“An art collector and curator, Alaiia wanted a wearable sculpture – something she could wear on her special day that could become a sculptural piece she could display and add to her collection after,” Misho’s Creative Director Suhani Parekh said.
The bridal outfit was not just a depiction of Alaiia’s love for art, but also an embodiment of a legacy passed down from her mother, Feroze. The gilded gold masterpiece was accentuated with an heirloom Temple necklace – a precious gift from her mother that added an immersive emotional depth to her ensemble. This fusion of sentiments and contemporary aesthetics ensured her outfit doubled up as a memorabilia and an artifact.
To further elevate her bespoke look, Alaiia paired her couture corset with a pair of handcrafted baroque pearl earrings.
Alaiia’s choice is another testament to the fashion evolution in bridal wear, reflecting how modern brides are inching towards outfits that are an extension of their personalities. Alia Bhatt and Parineeti Chopra‘s move to wear ivory wedding outfits also suggested the same, and so did Indian-American entrepreneur Sanjana Rishi’s pantsuit look for her big day.
