Here is a look at customisable phone covers designed to complement your garba and dandiya night OOTDs through matching colours, festive motifs and personalised details.

The trend this year is all about going OTT, be it silver charms or kundan embellishments or ghunghroos and beadwork.

Prachi Mandepara, owner of The Craft Collective (@thecraftcollective._), shares, “This Navratri, heavily embellished cases ( ₹600 to ₹2,000) are getting the most love from buyers as they feel festive yet remain an everyday accessory. You can personalise the colours, charms and even the motifs.”

With more and more demand for phone slings, some brands are capitalising on case + phone chain/ sling combinations. One huge demand is for cases with cowrie shells and black thread details for the OG garba vibe.

“We launched Navratri phone covers and sling combinations last year, and this time these have gone viral! Covers start at ₹400, while cover-and-sling combinations start at ₹900. Customise the colour and size you want, or send us a reference picture and we’ll recreate it,” says Isha Makadia, founder of Traditional Trend (@traditionaltrend_).
