With all the festivals approaching, keeping our wardrobes updated has become essential.
Whether for gifting or buying it for yourself, we’ve got you covered (quite literally).
To avoid last-minute hassles, let us have a quick look at all the trendy things that you can own this festive season.
The festivities are about to begin! Here’s all you need to know about how to be at your ethnic best.
Hakoba Blouse
Hakoba is a beautifully embroidered fabric and is a favourite among those inclined towards intricate detailing in their outfits.
Traditionally, the fabric has been seen in saris and salwar suits, but it is comparatively new in the blouse industry.
Hakoba blouses have become popular in a very short span of time due to the elegance it adds to the attire.
Ruffle saree
The Indo- Western pattern of ruffle sarees adds a Bohemian touch to the outfit. It is a modernised approach, yet it stays ethnic at its root.
The ruffled fabric will make you nostalgic about your carefree childhood days when you flaunt your favourite frilly dresses and frocks. Ruffled sarees also work magically with a beaded waist belt.
Digital printed lehengas
Digitally printed lehengas create an illusion of heavy work without them being heavy. They are cost-effective and are available in varied designs and colours pan India.
They are an excellent option for women who love to experiment with the traditional and the chic when it comes to ethnic wear.
Chunky Chokers
Chokers are all about a combination of textures, patterns, materials and colours.
Chokers made with heavy chains, brass, stripes, jewels and pearls all have made their way into fashion once again.
Ranging from lightweight to heavyweight, they can easily be coordinated with the outfit and the occasion.
Hathphool
It has an exquisite feel to it and makes a quirky fashion statement. This trendy accessory is now making headlines in the international fashion field and is being considered an exotic statement piece.
Traditionally being one of the integral parts of “Solah Srinagar”, it is finding its way into modern, contemporary fashion.
Some of these accessories live up to their name as they are made by stitching real flowers together, and others can be made by sophisticated work on metals.
Handcrafted belts
These are like the Indian equivalent of corsets but are made of metal, stones or beads. They can be worn with traditional wear ranging from sarees, Kurtis to kaftans.
The cinching effect created near the waist adds to the grace and prevents the outfit from getting crumpled.
MEN Wardrobes
Chikankari Kurta
Lucknowi chikan embroidery based on light pastel kurtas is well known among women, but it is emerging as a fresh fashion trend among men.
One of the most prominent features of chikankari work is the neatness and perfection every stitch is done with.
Due to its impeccable craftsmanship on fabric and its light and breathable nature, the demand is ever increasing.
Print on Print Pattern
The idea of print on print may seem weird to few people, but it sure is a twist in the existing print on plain trend.
It doesn’t need heavy ornamentation or additional accessories as the trend is complete in itself. The look sported by so many celebrities on the ramp today exudes confidence.
Lapel Pins or Brooch
Brooch with textured detailing can be paired with silk jacquard kurtas, and they also add a touch of royalty to outfits paired with Bhartiya printed turbans.
It is considered to be a statement piece symbolising class and elegance.
Pearl Necklace
Traditionally believed to be women’s jewellery, pearl necklaces have emerged as a fashion statement among men.
They complement kurtas beautifully, adding the exotic touch needed for getting dressed this festive season.
With these chic accessories and fits, you can step out in style.
