A Pair of Indian Trousers to be Glamorous, Now!

Who says that women have to wear skirts to be glamorous? Indian trousers, please!!!

The trend of the season is not only pencil skirts but also palazzo pants. We were searching for some inspiration for our outfits from the celebs world and actually we found some very stylish look that every one of us should replicate!

Look at Karisma Kapoor in black Indian trousers paired with a neon ombré shirt by Sidharta Aryan. We loved the confidence in which she decided not to wear an usual skirt as shown on the catwalk: she demonstrated class and independence!








Other glamorous looks that we appreciated were the ones showcased recently by Prerna Subba and Tanisha Mohan: both went for a trousers look for the Dior and Harper’s Bazaar event held in Kalyani Chawla’s home.







And what about you? What are your favourite designers of Indian trousers?
