A round-up of must-have women’s ethnic styles

Ethnic is a clothing genre that is really close to every woman’s heart. This is probably because ethnic wear is so versatile and diverse that irrespective of a woman’s preference, penchant, body type and event, there is something for everyone. If you are new to the ethnic side of the world, below listed are a few styles that no woman should ever miss trying out! 

• Mulmul cotton dresses

If you reside in a country like India where it is practically summers all year round, mulmul cotton dresses prove to be a great saviour. Of course, there are certain exceptions where summer doesn’t exist all-year-round but it does at some point in time. Being naturally breathable and lightweight, every woman should own something mulmul if not mulmul cotton dresses in her ethnic wardrobe. 

Believe us, wearing a mulmul beauty almost feels weightless on the skin. And the softness? Like a baby’s skin! 

• Ethnic maxi dresses

When we say every woman should own ethnic maxi dresses, we mean of all types. And these include ethnic maxi dresses in numerous prints and silhouettes. To name a few types of ethnic maxi dresses – Anarkali, Umbrella, Ruffled, Tiered etc. And all that in indigo, bagru, hand block, solid and even embellished with different sleeve styling with strappy, churidar, three quarters etc. 

Trust us when we say, no woman can ever have enough of ethnic maxi dresses! And the best part about them is that they are so easy to carry and style that they make a perfect ensemble for any occasion – casual, formal, and festive. 

• Indigo palazzo

Ask a woman what her favourite bottom wear is and we are sure her answer would be a super breezy palazzo! And why wouldn’t it be when the silhouette is so relaxing and versatile?! So, sure palazzos are a no-brainer addition to your bottom wear wardrobe. 

But a real, definitely unmissable kind of palazzo is the indigo palazzo. The reason? It is unique, a testimony of the iconic & generational indigo printing artform and just the bottom you need to create fusion looks. 

Have a white crop top that is too monotonous to pair with blue denim? Think indigo palazzo! Have a kurta that you need to create a boho look with? Slip into an indigo palazzo! What we mean is, no matter what your styling woe is, the indigo palazzo is the answer and a must-have! 

• Straight cut pant

Repeat with us…stop wearing boring churidar with all your ethnic top-wear! As mentioned in the above pointer, palazzos are a great option. But why would you don palazzos every day when you have straight cut pant too! Combining the comfort of a palazzo with a slimming structure, straight cut pants are an exquisite bottom to amp up every day as well as occasional ethnic wear. 

Though there are countless ethnic wear styles out there in the market, the ones at Vishnu are truly unparalleled and the ones that strike the perfect balance between traditional and trendy! Check out today.

The ultimate guide to styling ethnic wear like a boss

Ethnic wear is versatile. With the right styling, a woman could effortlessly sport it for a meeting, party, brunch and certainly a wedding. But the thing about ethnic wear is that in no time, the looks can get mundane. And the only way to escape the styling monotony that ethnic wear brings is by reading the detailed tips given below! 

• Go bold with drapes:

When it comes to ethnic dupatta, the choices are endless. So, if you are still resorting to the same old solid ethnic dupatta with your ethnic outfits, you are certainly losing out on a lot of panache. Instead, rave it up a bit with printed ethnic dupatta like indigo, hand blocked, bagru etc. If the outfit demands a sold ethnic dupatta only, instead of sporting a conventional cotton one, you could swap it for chanderi, silk or any other material that is not as widely found and casually used as cotton. 

• Accessorize like there’s no tomorrow:

If there is only one thing that can take your outfit from ordinary to extraordinary it has to be the right kind of accessories. Don’t believe us? Let’s say you got your hands on one of the chicest bagru print suits. It looks good, sure. But you know what would make it look great? An oxidized neckpiece and chaandbalis, statement rustic clutch and Indian juttis! This way, style any of your ethnic outfits with apt accessories and elevate its glam in a blink. 

• Don’t shy away from prints:

When you are shopping, do you always tend to pick up block printed kurtas online? If your answer is yes, it is time for a change! Of course, we are not expecting you to shift from your comfort zone. But as mentioned above, if you keep wearing the same prints, chances are all your outfits might start looking the same. So next time, ditch block printed kurtas online for indigo, make experimenting your style best friend forever and cart up kalamkari, bagru or ajrakh print kurtas on Vishnu! 

• Play with silhouettes:

In the ethnic world, prints are like the ocean…endless! But silhouettes? Quite limited. And if you keep donning the same styles over and over again, you know you will get bored with it too. For instance, if you tend to incline towards designer palazzo pants for the comfort quotient it offers, think culottes the next time you shop for bottoms. Same comfort, with a twist! Likewise, if you always opt for straight fit kurtas think anarkalis or tunics. Apply the same styling methodology when you are pairing these ethnic silhouettes with each other too. To give an example, if you always combine designer palazzo pants with crop tops, next time style them with a straight kurta. Or don the crop top with harems or dhoti pants. Long story short, don’t stop at the conventional. Explore everything you can and pave a new style way for your ethnic attires too!
