Out for a brunch
While we run the risk of getting toasted in the heat, it hardly keeps us away from a dressed-up brunch date with our buddies. A cute midi and Lennon glasses will obviously work, but there’s no reason you can’t go the breezy ethnic way. Like model Dipannita Sharma, pick a drape that speaks in colour. Coral, raspberry red, aqua blue or deep tangerine can lift your look instantly. Do a basic blouse, with a keyhole cut on the back, and statement ear cuffs.
The neo-boho chic
Gone are the days of staple churidars, kurtas and jholas, if you want boho to resonate in your look without looking dated, pick up light-weight fabrics and style them right. Replace your Patiala salwar with a dhoti bottom or mono-coloured farshi which don’t incorporate embellishments. Like TV anchor Maria Goretti, compliment your look with a single piece of jewellery. Beads are a no-no, do bold, parandi-inspired tassel earrings.
White, Vintage valour
With 100 years of Indian Cinema being the flavour around the globe, there’s no getting away from retro-inspired ethnic wear. If Sonam Kapoor can look classy in a simple white sari, so can you. Nothing spells romance like a dewy-hued drape. From a big family dinner to your best friend’s engagement, be armed to look stunning. Let your sari and blouse be of the same colour, with the latter being full-sleeved. You can also do full-fledged, clashing print.
Bold and Bridal
There is no denying that bridal wear in the country encapsulates a wide range of styles, with many to-be brides experimenting much more than before. If you too want your D-Day to be picture perfect, dare to be different. Pack a punch with ombre, soft hues and layering. Cut the volume, and think of an outfit from designer Anupama Dayal’s collection, Ishq-e-Dilli. The hair and makeup here should be in tandem with your summer wedding look. So, go for gilded head bands and haath-phools with a soft side-braid studded with flowers.
