“An intimate breakdown of the pigments, techniques, and jewelry rigging behind one of our most celebrated bridal stories.”
A behind-the-scenes look at how bride Ayla’s Barat look came to life in the studio. From matching the custom ruby velvet lehenga to framing the gold forehead ornament with millimeter precision.
Every detail in this look was calibrated against the venue’s warm chandelier lighting. The eye makeup combined antique gold leafing with soft charcoal smoke to deepen the gaze without closing the eye shape.
