Pimp up your dupatta in style and that too in such easy peasy ways for which you won't have to go back to the designer! These are things any tailor can add, and some of them are easy to DIY with a needle and thread as well if you know how to work it! Of course, most of these are representative images and designer wear, but they're uber cool ideas to get inspired!

A scalloped edge is very trendy these days, and it's easy to attach to any dupatta as long as you can source the right border that complements the lehenga!

Beads in dupattas are timeless- and really make the dupatta way more bridal, and they're so easy to get attached!
Lace Trims
If your dupatta is sheer and plain and you hate all that heavy work on it, just go light with some sweet lace trims. A broad or a thin lace border should do it!
