The festival of light, happiness and glory is soon to illuminate us. As per Hindu culture, Diwali celebrates the victory of good over evil, so it’s that time of the year when we all pray to the Almighty to defeat the evil inside us and enlighten us with positivity. Besides preaching goddesses Lakshmi and Kali, this festival offers us a great chance to dazzle everyone with an ethnic outfit.
Are you confused regarding the right clothing idea? Don’t worry! We got some great tips for you so you can flaunt each occasion, from Dhanteras and Diwali to Bhai Dooj, in style. Our styling guide will suit every man’s and woman’s preferences.
Attract prosperity in Dhanteras: Dressing tips
Dhanteras heralds the beginning of the auspicious festival of Diwali. Generally, people seek the blessings of lord Dhanvantari and buy gold or silver as it’s a way to welcome wealth and prosperity. To invoke the divine traditionally, women can choose a beautifully embroidered printed saree or a red and white combo cotton Pakistani suit. Compliment the look with a lustrous gold necklace and dangling earrings.
Men can evoke the desi Munda vibes by pairing a kurta with a dhoti or a pyjama. If we look at current trends, we will find mixing an Indian ethnic outfit with a western one is grabbing attention. For a minimalistic look, wear a nice thin gold chain or a bracelet.
Preaching Goddesses Laxmi: Ethnic Outfit ideas
The actual day of decking up your home with diyas and lights can be made more vibrant when you choose a perfect outfit. Diwali evening is all about bursting firecrackers, so be careful when selecting the dress material you wear; never go for silk. Girls can choose a beige-colored Kurti and combine it with dhoti pants or a sharara. Accessorizing with a long silver earring will turn you into a diva. For buying good quality fabrics at cheap rates, shop from Gandhi Nagar Delhi Market.
Men can try out a nicely embroidered sherwani or a kurta and jeans. If you are bored with kurtas, a shirt tugged well with a belt can help you grab attention. Some men like wearing trousers with fine Zari work in case you wish to look ethnic.
Celebrating the bond of brother and sister: styling tips
To celebrate the auspicious and loving bond of brother-sister on Bhai Dooj, we suggest you stick to a less flashy yet ethnic outfit. Pakistani suits can look both minimalistic as well as glamorous. If you don’t want to handle that dupatta, wear a long coat over the salwar; it will offer an unconventional vibe. You can wear diamond studded gold neckpieces and matching earrings.
Men can dress up in a kurta paired with a waistcoat and jeans. Nehru coats also go well with a light-colored kurta; make sure the coat should be bright colored if you choose a light-shade kurta. Wear a nice watch and a gold bracelet to look your best.
We hope our ethnic outfit styling tips will help you choose the right apparel and accessories which transform you into the ultimate fashion king and queen. Happy Diwali!
