Must have kurta styles this festive season

Asymmetric kurta is a trend that we just simply adore. The pattern which was tough to accept at the beginning has gained a lot of acceptance lately. One of the main reason of its popularity is the involvement of Bollywood celebrities who have worn it at various occasions and has got an acceptance nod from the fashion police. When this fashion first was introduced everyone experimented with wearing it over palazzos, jeans and some wearing it as it is with slippers as a dress. Now, it has gained much-needed attention because of its versatility.

This festive season, with most of the things getting back to normal, people are looking for various options to dress up differently. Asymmetrical kurta for women is one of the patterns which is there on the mind of the people mostly. In this blog, we will list down a few of the styles we love of asymmetric kurta.

Plain asymmetrical kurta with palazzo pants 

This pattern is nothing different from the age-old traditional wear of salwar kameez. The flowy pattern of the kurta is what adds to the charm and gives fresh life to the old style. We love how comfortable ladies of senior age in India are as well in this particular style and explore more varieties in it.  

Asymmetric cotton kurta for women with formal pants 

Recently we have seen ladies wearing long kurtas as well to work but the asymmetric pattern in short kurta has also become very popular. Ladies are loving the fusion dress and enjoying it even as formal wear as well. We have seen celebrities like Neha Dhupia as well wearing an asymmetrical top in shirt style with formal and slaying the formal dressing couture.

Kurta with skirts 

Of late, kurta and skirt combinations have been hyped and many are wearing a coat as well as an overcoat. This is more of an alternate version of the traditional lehenga with choli. The kurta with skirt version looks great with detailed embroidery work and various kinds of slits. Asymmetrical kurtas are also coming with different flows and patterns with side slits. We are loving the modern hip designs of the young generation and how they are experimenting with new looks and designs while keeping the old patterns in context.

Plain kurta set with Banarasi Dupatta 

Be it any kurta pattern, a classy overlay of dupatta or even a shrug with detailed embroidery work breathes in life to any plain dress. Banarasi kurta being the traditional handloom work from northern India is perfect for the festive season or any occasion wherein it requires dressing up. A touch of glitter on plain cotton kurta glams up the overall look. The advantage of silk dupattas going along well with cotton kurta for women as well makes it more versatile. 

We would love to hear how you are styling up your kurta sets this festive season and be inspired by our upcoming collection.

This festive season, glam up your style with Kaftan Kurti

Since last year, once a pandemic has hit the lives of the people globally and people have started spending more time indoors, fashion has changed tremendously. Everyone is more inclined towards sustainable clothing and are mostly investing in clothing that is comfortable to carry on both in-house and on a getaway with friends.

Since last year most of the occasions and gatherings were limited but with everything slowly opening up, everyone is going to make up for the missed fun and family gatherings this festive season. India being the country of festivals and tradition, clothing and accessorising yourself becomes an event of prime importance.

This season focuses on the latest fab and focusing on comfortable clothing, kaftan kurta is going to be the most preferred clothing. Women’s kaftan section has evidently become very popular especially cotton fabric. Every designer house has introduced kaftan kurta in different forms in the past year and has continued experimenting with different styles and designs.

The option of kaftan coming in different length formats is an added advantage for ladies. One can wear it as a fabulous dress and hang out with friends or wear it at the comfort of the home. The other benefit is the versatility of it to be worn by different sizes of women and has longevity. The shelf life of kaftan is long due to its free-flowing nature. It’s one dress that has multiple functionalities. Recently celebrities have been seen wearing Kaftan at their home and then with bold patterns putting up kaftan dress for birthday occasions as well. Malaika Arora recently wore a kaftan dress in a beautiful ivory colour with a golden print during her recent getaway with friends in Mumbai. We love how celebrities are endorsing this freestyle clothing and portraying the culture of comfort and convenience overdone tight dresses with a heavy make-up look.

Youngsters are following up the footsteps of renowned celebrities and even the Instagram influencers are portraying kaftan dresses as their favourites. Kaftan dresses are seen everywhere with different patterns and delicate hand embroidery done on them.

At prints and weaves, cotton kaftans are hand made with pure cotton and digitally printed with floral motifs. The prints and colour palettes themselves portray joy. We had so much fun working on the patterns which not only resemble joy but are perfect to wear both at home and outside. A kaftan has become a vacation necessity and we are sure to add on the patterns which resemble vacation in itself with palm trees and vibrant hues.

If you have any more ideas of design to go in the kaftan feel free to DM us so that we can work on it and introduce it in our new arrivals.
