How to ace the wedding look
Diwan Saheb, menswear designer label, conjures up images of luxury and magnificence — of elegant men dressed in bespoke garments created by the best craftsmen of the day — the perfect image to portray as you create your ideal look for every occasion in the rarefied ambience of a destination wedding.
The label has tips to offers for destination weddings. “When receiving your guests at the airport, opt for a plain yet classy ethnic wear, a stylish kurta pyjama strikes just the right note,” says Amit Diwan of Diwan Saheb. He also suggests, “For the sundowner or youngsters’ night, which is an outdoor affair, one could go for a shirt with pencil-fit trousers and a statement waistcoat or smart jacket.”
To ace the mehendi look, Sumit Diwan of Diwan Saheb says, “For the outdoor mehendi and haldi function, it’s time for the ethnic chic look in light shades. Go for kurta pyjamas in colours such as mustard, orange, and pink, with Jawahar waistcoat to make heads turn. However, the cocktail night should be a modern do. So, tuxedos are the way to go, as the ladies go for bright gowns.”
To this, Sudhir Diwan adds, “And for the wedding celebration, the ideal choices are ornate gold zari embroidered sherwanis accessorised with embroidered stoles, royal neckpieces, mojris, and pagdis”.
“Opt for formal suits for the reception on the final night, and then it’s time to get into your airport look once again to head back home,” says
Surinder Diwan from Diwan Saheb. Explaining the airport look, he says, “Dress in stylish yet comfortable T-shirts or linen shirts paired with jeans, linen pyjamas, shorts or tracks, and get all your looks done right, the Diwan Saheb way.”
