What is the ideal time to start browsing and placing the order for the lehenga?

Started visiting the store (or stores) about 6-8 months before your wedding. They require at least 3 months for the order and that's ideal for one to order from his latest collection as well!

So, can a Manish Malhotra lehenga be customised?

Now, this is where perhaps the biggest advantage is. While a lot of big designers like Sabyasachi might not customise lehengas- we mean in terms of altering the hues or the work or silhouette of the lehenga, or adding something to it. But Manish Malhotra does, with even the option of the designer making a bespoke creation for you. So you need not really wear the same lehenga as another bride has- if you like it, you can get it altered and customised to make it your own special lehenga! But of course, customisations come at an an added cost.

Can you mix and match and make a lehenga?

And that's another yes! The label allows you to mix and match and pick your lehenga as well! So that's a big plus point!

What is the waiting time for a Manish Malhotra lehenga?

So the waiting time for just about any Manish Malhotra lehenga you pick will be about 2-3 months, which is even in the case of the Mehendi and Sangeet lehengas apart from bridal ones. The lehenga is curated as per your frame and size, and even as per choice! If you want to go for a bespoke creation, then it might take longer, depending on the level of customisation.
