Outfits That Go With Every Festival

• Festive wear for women and especially ethnic outfits does not disappoint. Although most festivals are traditional, be it Durga Puja, Diwali, or Eid. At the same time, harvest festivals like Lohri, Pongal, Bihu, and Makar Sankrant hold greater value in our lives. There is a ritual and culture related to every festival, and with every ritual, there is a dress code? Let's know about them:

• Pongal: "The word means spilling over because this is the occasion where people boil rice in a pot until it starts overflowing." It is a festival of great importance for Southern India. Kanchipuram Silk Saree in bright colors is what we will find the females in and younger girls in half sarees or pavadais.

• Lohri: As we all know is the harvest festival of Northern India and is celebrated by Sikhs and Punjabis around the globe. They celebrate this festival with immense happiness with a bonfire, bhangra, and Siddha. Females usually wear salwar kameez as their traditional dress code; however, modern-day fashions, palazzo sets, suits, and lehengas are becoming a part of the festival. As we all know, saree is never out. Patola and Banarasi silk saree can be a choice.

• Bihu: Eastern India celebrates Bihu with all feelings of love and happiness in January. The bonfire is an integral part of the ritual, followed by buffalo fight, folk music, dhol, and dance. Mekhala Chador is the traditional dress code of the women, especially for the ones performing the folk dance. One can pick a light silk saree or pastel art silk saree. You can also stick to the traditional handloom woven Muga silk saree, also known as Assam silk.

• Makar Sankranti: The harvest festival of the West is also known as the kite flying festival, or Uttaryan, celebrated in most states, including Gujarat, Maharashtra, and Rajasthan, where we will find sky filled with kites. With fashion, these days people wear simple kurtas and lighter sarees. So you can choose lightweight embroidered silk or georgette sarees that will best fit the festival.

  Invest in palazzo pants, whether flared, narrow or chopped up, pair with a crop top or bandeau and a western jacket or cape, which will look extremely ethnic and bold and can be a perfect festival dress for women.

• Anarkali Suits

  While midi dresses are more casual and often considered less traditional, long Anarkali suits will surely fit into the mood of festive ethnic wear, especially during Durga Puja and Diwali.

  Anarkali suits can never go out of fashion! Whether being embroidered with zari or stones or a fusion of Indian and western, the choice of Anarkali suit will lighten up your mood!
