#Shaadi season is upon us! And while weddings are all about love and celebration, there’s always this pressure to look hot that comes along with it. In this episode of Girl Guppa, we reminisce about our younger days when looking like a Sabyasachi model was the ultimate goal—even if it meant freezing in our glamorous lehengas and sarees during the chilly winter months! We explore the uncomfortable reality of women’s traditional outfits vs. the ease of men’s sherwanis and kurtas, diving into the double standards of fashion. Have we finally evolved enough to prioritise comfort over everything? Join us as we discuss how our relationship with wedding fashion has changed, and why it's time to embrace the shift towards self-care and confidence. If you're curious about how to survive shaadi season without sacrificing comfort for glamour, this episode is for you!

ABOUT US:
Hey there! We’re Girl Guppa — 2 millennial ‘girls’ who love ‘gupshup’. Especially if it’s about things that women care deeply about. Whether we're chatting about the possibility of feminist marriages, having open and honest talks about sex, or unpacking complex issues like mental health, we do it with a blend of insight, warmth, and fun. ‘Girl Guppa’ is all about those raw and real conversations we have with our BFFs at 3 am or on a long drive home, about prevalent, important, or even completely frivolous issues. Our show is all about creating a space where no subject is taboo, and every woman feels seen, heard, and understood. While we’d ideally love to ‘enlighten’ you, we’d be happy if we can ‘entertain’ you to begin with. Join us for fun, non-judgmental, and enlightening conversations that empower and inspire.
