It’s that time of the year when you wish you had a new wardrobe for each day of the week. Take to the glint of mirror-work lehenga cholis, sequined sarees, and metallic coloured silhouettes to stand out from the crowd. The choices are endless, from trendy ruffled pieces and Indo-western outfits to glam ethnic wear and contemporary printed separates. 

In tune with gearing up for the festivities, co-founder and CEO of AKS Clothings Nidhi Yadav shares with TC46 some fashion notes. She talks about looks that are on-trend, colours that vibe with the festive season, and styling tips that will help take your look up a notch.

Diwali 2020 Fashion Trends

First and foremost, we’re going to see a lot of sarees in all their variations, because they’re a perfect ethnic wear choice and just right for festivities. Then there are lehengas. Paired with a crop top, a lehenga can give you that bold yet ethnic look that would make heads turn for sure. Dhoti salwars are also great for an occasion like Diwali. It is a comfortable style that’s pretty statement-making. You can pair one with a tank top or a kurta and create a chic ensemble.

If you really want to flaunt that vintage, classy look, then you can also opt for Anarkalis. They’re royal, comfortable and elegant – just what you need for an occasion like Diwali.

Last but not the least, we definitely are going to see some fusion fashion as well. You can don a jacket kurta or a slit, embroidered kurta with a pair of jeans and make heads turn your way. If you’re going for this look though, you should wear light jewellery and minimum accessories.

Go-To Colour Palette For Your Outfits This Diwali

Any colour is a good colour as long as it matches your vibe. Since Diwali is a festival of lights, you need to look jubilant and what better way to do that than by wearing bright, vibrant colours like Deep red and yellow ochre? If you want a more regal, sophisticated look, royal blue is always on the table along with purple, which is making a resurgence among ethnic wear enthusiasts. Not to forget, ivory is a colour that you can never go wrong with when it comes to festivities. 

5 Outfit Recommendations For Diwali At Home

  • If you’re staying at home but want to enjoy that Diwali vibe, you can go for a palazzo suit in light fabrics like cotton and georgette so that you stay stylish and comfortable all day long
  • For a mixer at home with friends, you can don a silk saree embellished with zari weaves or brocade
  • While partying with family, you need something that is comfy yet elegant. Anarkali suits, shararas and light Indian lehengas would be perfect for the occasion

  • For the card party, you can tone down your wardrobe to more relaxing choices. Indo-western gowns, chic dhoti kurtas and jacket suits would be perfect for the occasion
