BACK TO BROCADE
Get party ready and dazzle in gold and glitter with inspiration from these Bollywood divas this festive season
PRETTY PALAZZOS
If you don’t want to take the traditional route and yet emit festive vibes, actor Alia Bhatt is here to give you some inspiration. She is wearing a silk shirt in pink with bright mustard brocade palazzos. The look is contemporary and you can dance the night away with this easy-peasy look.
UNDERSTATED BEAUTY
If understated glamour is what defines your personality, take style cues from actor Kalki Koechlin, who looks ebullient in a brocade aquacoloured suit. A gold choker with golden earrings complete the look and the high heels add the extra zing. You can even pair it silver juttis to look your best.
CONTEMPORARY BANDHGALA
Sonam K Ahuja wore this brocade Bandhgala from Rajesh Pratap Singh with white and gold veshti. This look has the right amount of elegance and pizzazz needed for the Diwali night. You can pick a similar Bandhagala in brocade in white with gold thread work. Style the hair in a middleparted bun and all you need is a pair of jhumkas to jazz up the ensemble.
DAZZLE IN SALWAAR-KAMEEZ
Take inspo from actor Tara Sutaria, who is looking pretty in a navy blue brocade suit from Raw Mango. The dupatta with scalloped hemline makes it even more alluring. You can pair it with a chunky oxidised neckpiece, the way Tara has done, and elevate the look.
COLOUR PLAY
Colour block your brocade look like actor Kareena Kapoor Khan, who is wearing a mustard sharara with the fuchsia dupatta. If you want to colour block your brocade outfit with dupatta, choose two primary colours and pair them. For example, a bright yellow looks good with bottle green. Similarly red and navy will be a nice combination.
MORE THE MERRIER
Pulling off this brocade lehenga is not everyone’s cup of tea but actor Aditi Rao Hydari does with elan. She donned this navy blue lehenga with an off shouldered blouse from Manish Malhotra and accessorised the look with a choker. Opt this ensemble for the Diwali night party and steal the limelight.
