Festive fusion
You can opt for a saree with concrete pleats, pair it with a jacket, and wear a cropped blouse to create a fusion look, just like this one from Delhi Vintage Co. The ensemble features a gold saree, a heavily embroidered jacket with patterns, and a blouse with sequin tassels at the border. Complete the look with dramatic gold earcuffs and septum, and style your hair in a tightly packed bun with floral decorations.
Criss-cross elegance
Traditional with a twist? A refreshing lehenga paired with a criss-cross halterneck blouse in a gold hue, such as this one from Pankaj & Nidhi, will help you make a statement. The ensemble features sequins and swirl patterns all over with a broad waistband. Seal the look with minimal silver accessories and tightly pulled-back hair to show off the blouse’s unique design.
