Nothing screams comfort more than a loose and relaxed kaftan dress. Like actor Kareena Kapoor Khan, choose a festive kaftan in rani pink adorned with gota patti work. Amp up the look with juttis and loose waves.

JACKET FTW

Like actor Karisma Kapoor, go for an asymmetrical flowy ensemble and dress it up with a statement jacket. Add a dash of drama with a silver ear cuff and arm stack. Mules and a headband will close off the look.

SHARARA BUT MAKE IT OVERSIZED

If you still want your one foot in the traditional door, emulate actor Diana Penty’s fit in a loose sharara set. Featuring zardozi, thread and sequin embroidery on the A-line kurta and the long bell sleeves, it is bound to grab eyeballs.

DHOTI IT UP

Like actor Richa Chadha, skip the salwar and opt for a short, layered anarkali kurta and dhoti pant set as you celebrate your friend's mehendi. Pair it with metallic Kolhapuri wedges, potli bag and a fishtail braid. Smokey eyes, nude lips and a pair of dangling earrings to finish.

TIERED STATEMENT

Instead of lehenga sets, prioritise staying comfortable as you slip into a tonal set like actor Shriya Pilgaonkar. Keep the mood neutral and earthy as you opt for such hues. Pull your hair back into a bun with gajras and finish with statement earrings.

A SHEER AFFAIR

STYLING INPUTS

• Co-ord sets in soft linens and breathable fabrics are an ideal choice. 
• Pastel hues like blush pink, mint green, and serene lavender offer both elegance and understated charm. 
• Look for pieces with minimal embellishments or subtle embroidery. 
• Flowy kurtas with palazzos or straight-cut pants are great for a laid-back vibe. 
• Sets with wrap-style tops or asymmetrical hemlines are also trending.
