Dupattas, Pocket Squares and bright colors: Sonia and Ramit

Sonia says : " For the sangeet, we both wanted bright colors. While my lehenga had three different colors, we co-ordinated the color of the dupatta to his kurta.  His pocket square incorporated the rest of the colors of my lehenga, and his nehru jacket was kept neutral so it didn't get too matchy matchy. It was a nice way to look good in photos together"
