“Do they need to stick to saree to get that perfect traditional look?”
No, you don’t need to depend on the six yards drape to look elegant, festive and glamorous on this Diwali. This is not a single day affair but a long affair with so many festivals back to back. Starting from Durga Puja, Diwali celebration includes various other festivals naming Dussehra, Karwa Chauth, Dhan Teras, Diwali and Bhaiya Dooj.
So, there are various occasions and women want to look equally appealing and impressive on each day.
Though the thought of wearing different beautiful outfits at each occasion fills us with an excitement, the selection of different options makes it a bit daunting as well. Here is the ultimate guide to help you deck up in ethnic wear in the most stylish way to leave everyone amazed.
Traditional sarees with a twist
If you want to move ahead from traditional silk or Kanjivaram sarees, you can wear designer sarees with a twist. There are brands offering Bollywood inspired sarees in unique designs like lehenga sarees, gown style sarees and sarees with the jacket. Celebrity inspiration is the best option to pick the right printed designer saree for a festive occasion. Malaika Arora is a great option to draw inspiration for an ultimate ethnic look in saree.
Sensuous white glamor
It’s not important that you can wear traditional red and white only on Durga Puja. You can give an interesting twist to this combo by wearing glamorous ethnic wear outfit like Anarkali suit, lehenga or saree. If you want to stick to saree for a pure ethnic look, swipe the simple silk saree with a figure skimming off-white saree with contrasting embroidery. This saree will look great on unmarried girls as well. Accessorize them with danglers and you are ready to steal the show.
Something bright
Experiments are at its peak; now women don’t mind trying mix and match. Gone are the days when short kurtas were restricted to be worn with just Patiala salwar. Now you can team up them with palazzo pants or straight pants to create your own style statement. Pick something in light color and add a twist by making it more colorful with designer jewelry. For instance, you can wear a white kurta and pair it with blue colored Jhumki style earrings to create the magic.
Long skirts
If you are bored of wearing long Anarkali suits of every festival, try something different this Diwali. Give your ethnic look a twist by switching Anarkali suits with long skirts. These are in vogue this season and make a great ethnic wear option. To get a complete ethnic and classic look you can pair the long skirt with a kurti. If you want a combination of style and tradition, pair your skirt with a crop top, shirt or jacket. Choose the accessories wisely and you are sure to make head turns this Diwali.
