What a long name for a mehendi design you say? Lace Glove Henna is the new fad in mehendi designs these days! Looking pretty and pretty sexy, we really needed to know all about this hot trend before we hopped on the bandwagon. So all the goss about this new mehendi design is up for grabs, read on...
What exactly is Lace Glove Henna?
Remember those vintage-y cool lace gloves and half-gloves western brides wore for their weddings? We got them all reinvented into mehendi designs that imitate them. Before you leap and say "What an idea, sirji?", we'd like to add that these mehendi designs really go into intricate detailing - the delicateness of the lace, the thinness of the design and the romantic elements that make it pretty are all copied beautifully into these mehendi designs.
What kind of designs should I opt for?
Go for the simple ones if you want to stay on the subtler side - just a jaali design on the hands or just the fingers. Some actually go the whole hog and do up the entire hand as a glove - pretty bold. But what's really popular these days is the lace glove that starts at the ring finger and goes all the way to the wrist - that's really intimate and it's totally #trending. Shade the insides of the design to make it look like a boudoir lace glove, that's extra brownie points.
Will it require any additional care or help?
Not really, but get a mehendi artist who is really open about the design. Make sure she keeps your design fuss-free and delicate - nothing ruins this trend like particularly thick mehendi lines. This needs a deft hand and this design needs to be as delicate as possible. The lace design can also be embellished with swarovskis or interesting beads to make it shine!
