After Alia Bhatt re-wore her wedding saree at the National Awards, everyone’s suddenly in a tizzy to re-use their own wedding wardrobes. After all, if Alia can do it, why can’t we? It’s actually kind of funny how we justify the cost of that dreamy wedding lehenga by saying or thinking, “Yeah, but I can totally re-use this later,” and then never actually do it. Post-wedding, that once super-precious lehenga is usually left forgotten in a closet, waiting for that mythical ‘one day’ to make a comeback.
