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! 

How will your style your next ethnic outfit?
