DIWALI 2021 OUTFIT IDEAS
PRINTED KURTI/ TUBE TOP PALAZZO PANT SET
One of the most trending outfits is Kurti, or a tube top paired with palazzo pants. It is one of the finest, comfortable, and elegant options for this Diwali. Opt for earthy tones and pastel hues, such as Mustard Yellow, Indigo or Beige, Powder Pink, Mint Green, Ivory. Compliment it with a matching or contrast dupatta. You need to ensure that the kurta or the top is neither too simple nor too heavy. It must seamlessly blend in with the occasion and should be comfortable enough for you to manage the workload. Play around with accessories and hairstyles to add an everlasting grace to the entire ensemble.
LEHENGA SET
Now is the perfect time to free your wild explorative mind and start experimenting with your lehenga. To proffer high fashion style with comfort, pair your lehenga with a cool ruffle top or shirt. You can play around with the prints. Choose a subtle or matching colour that compliments your choker necklace and hand accessories. You can also go for a monotone lehenga set with statement makeup and accessories.
SHARARA/GHARARA SUIT SET
We must tell you, Shararas and Ghararas are worth investing in for every festival, as they have quite a long journey to follow in upcoming years. Contemporary and traditional Sharara suit sets with warm colours are a must to pop up this Diwali. You can opt for a peplum kurta when paired with gharara, Chand Bali earrings, a messy bun, and smokey makeup is sure to leave an alluring touch to your personality.
WESTERN/ INDO-WESTERN JUMPSUITS
Modern women will undoubtedly love the idea of western jumpsuits, as it’s a go-to attire for a cocktail or post-pooja parties. A quirky version of these is indo-western jumpsuits which bring out your bold, confident, feminine side.
DHOTI SALWAR SET
Add that propitious enchantment to your fruity look with a kurta and a dhoti salwar. It is bold and keeps you edgy for all sorts of parties. Pair your favourite dhoti pants with a statement kurta and jacket to bring out the best and most adorned versions of Indo-western attire.
MAXI DRESS
Maxi dresses can never fail any festive vibe. Irrespective of size and age, anyone can carry it effortlessly. They have all in one- style, flair, and a desi-girl look in fresh and vibrant colours. Make a centre hair partition, pull up your hair, wear your anklet, jhumkas, and you are ready to flaunt like a gorgeous diva.
SAREE
Talking about looking fierce and elegant on Diwali, how can we miss out on sarees, one of the profound traditional approaches by Indian women. It is one of the finest ideas to express your bespoke taste without putting in much effort. Any saree featuring true Indian craftsmanship such as Bengali, Silk, Banarasi, Chiffon, Bandhani, Kanchipuram will slay your Diwali look. If you feel like wearing a heavyweight saree, go for a Banarasi Brocade saree. If you wish to wear something lightweight, choose a pure chiffon or organza saree. And if you want to save the draping time, go for a couture style pre-stitched saree.
ANARKALI SUITS
Anarkali sets are best to make a majestic and grandeur appearance. This style has forever been in trend and will continue to be so. That’s the only reason why you’ll find this staple flooded in every market. Go for heavily flared printed and embroidered Anarkali suit sets.
HEAVY DUPATTAS
Simple, chic, and elegant is something we all need for a backup. Heavily embellished or embroidered dupatta style is a trend that we can’t get over with. Pairing your dupatta with a plain suit set is best for this festival season.
Pro-tip:
Accessories are essential! They add the additional flavour and add an over-the-top punch! Keep it minimal. A minimal shimmering clutch or a velvet purse is perfect for a well-embroidered dress. A single statement ring, extravagant earrings, statement bangles, and a choker necklace complement all ethnic dresses marvellously. Footwear also matters! Pair your favourite block heels, sandals, cut shoes, embroidered juttis, and lots more to match the gleam of the outfit.
