Trendy outfit ideas for festive season

• Drape a vibrant silk saree that is accompanied by a modern blouse. The silk retains the traditional charm and a different blouse cut accentuates your appearance. The saree is a perfect silhouette for festivities that gives you timeless and effortless style and beauty.

• ⁠For an easy yet elegant look, opt for a short kurta with palazzo or sharara. Match it with bangles and jhumkas for a polished ethnic finish. This outfit is a great choice for making your festival experience more enjoyable and fashionable.

• ⁠A floor-length anarkali with heavy embroidery and sheer dupatta exudes majestic charm and makes you look even more stunning and festive-ready.

• Make your festive outfit even more grand with a vibrant or pastel coloured lehenga with embroidered blouse. Pair it with statement jewellery pieces and you are ready to celebrate with family and friends.

• Opt for contemporary options by choosing a jacket over a lehenga or a cape over your ethnic attire. The jacket and cape add a new twist to your traditional outfit and make you look even more unique and distinct.
