A bridal gown, also known as a wedding gown or wedding dress, is a formal and often elaborate dress worn by a bride during her wedding ceremony. It is typically white or ivory in colour, although brides may choose dresses in various colours to suit their personal style and cultural traditions. Bridal gowns are designed to be elegant, beautiful, and reflective of the bride's individual taste and preferences. Bridal gowns come in a wide range of styles, shapes, and designs. Common features include a fitted or flowing silhouette, various necklines (such as sweetheart, V-neck, or strapless), different sleeve lengths or styles, and intricate embellishments such as lace, beading, or embroidery. The length of the gown can range from floor-length to tea-length or even shorter for more informal weddings.

The bridal gown market in India have experienced significant growth due to several factors. The growing influence of Bollywood and celebrities plays a significant role in shaping fashion trends in India, including bridal gowns. When popular celebrities choose bridal gowns for their weddings, it influences the choices of brides-to-be and generates demand for similar styles in the market. Additionally, the increasing influence of Western culture and weddings in India has led to a preference among brides for incorporating Western elements, such as bridal gowns, into their wedding ceremonies. This trend contributes to the expansion of the bridal gown market. Furthermore, the rising popularity of destination weddings in India has created a demand for bridal gowns suitable for exotic locations. This trend further fuels the growth of the bridal gown market as brides seek gowns that align with the destination wedding trend.

Although the bridal gown market in India is flourishing and lively, it is not without its obstacles. Firstly, there is a lack of awareness and education among potential customers regarding the available styles and options in the market. Bridal gown brands and retailers need to invest in educating consumers and creating awareness about the range of designs and customization possibilities. Secondly, size and fit issues pose a challenge. Bridal gowns often require multiple fittings and alterations to achieve the perfect fit, and addressing individual body shape concerns can be challenging due to the absence of standardized sizing guidelines and infrastructure for alterations. Thirdly, the retail infrastructure for bridal gowns is relatively limited compared to traditional bridal wear.

The India bridal gown market faced challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic, including disruptions in supply chains, leading to delays in production and delivery. The market also witnessed a shift to online shopping as physical stores closed, prompting retailers to strengthen their online presence. Safety concerns resulted in a preference for contactless experiences, forcing retailers to implement safety protocols and adjust in-store operations. Adapting to these challenges required businesses to embrace digital strategies, enhance safety measures, and provide alternative shopping experiences to ensure the market's continued growth.
