What to Wear to a Winter Reception
Receptions run late and the halls are cool — dress for both.
The evening edit
Floor-length gowns, cocktail dresses and reception wear — with express alteration so it fits perfectly on the night.

Tell us where you are going — we will show you what to wear.
Fresh from the atelier this month.

Complete the look
The gown, a quilted clutch and strappy red sandals — everything for the night in one go.
From a knee-length cocktail dress to a gown that sweeps the floor.

Express alteration
Tell us your height and the heels you will wear. Our tailors hem and take in your gown before it leaves the atelier.
Last pieces from the season at lower prices — until the timer runs out.
The atelier called to ask my height. That is service.
Scarlet Ruffle Dress
Wore the ruby gown to my cousin’s reception — the hem was perfect with my heels.
Cobalt Cape Dress
They altered it in two days and delivered the day before the wedding.
Onyx Ruffle Ball Gown

The atelier
Chandni began as a small atelier in Banani that dressed brides’ sisters and best friends. We still drape every gown on a form, finish the seams by hand and fit each order to the height of the woman who will wear it.
