When one talked of wedding clothes in the
past, most of the focus used to be on the bride and her outfits. However, with
changing times and with more options being available for the men, the grooms
also have started experimenting with their wedding outfits rather than settling
for the plain old wedding sherwani or suit. Today, we take you through the
fashion options that the Indian grooms have when it comes to dressing up for
their wedding and all the events associated with it.
An occasion like a wedding calls for
traditional outfits that will make you stand apart from the crowd. Steer clear
of your shirts and trousers for the pre-wedding events and parties. For small
gatherings, go in for simple wedding kurtas. Pick wedding kurtas in cotton, raw
silk or silk with detailing along the collar, cuff and the lapel. Beige,
maroon, blue and mustard are great colour options for the kurta. Pair the wedding
kurta with matching or contrasting pyjamas that are comfortable and
well-fitted. Throw in a dupatta in a contrasting colour to up the ethnic
quotient of the outfit. Take a look at some of the amazing wedding kurtas
we have for the man looking for elegant traditional wear for the wedding or
festive season.
For the wedding ceremony, you can choose a
classy dhoti-kurta set. The Indian garment - dhoti is back in style and is a
preferred choice for the traditional ceremonies. Wear a silk dhoti with a zari
border and team it with an embroidered or brocade kurta or a bandhgala. If you
are not too comfortable with the idea of draping a dhoti around your waist, you
can go in for pre-stitched dhotis that come with an elastic band around the
waist.
For the reception, the ideal outfit would
be an opulent wedding sherwani in a rich colour. Linen, brocade, velvet, silk
and cotton-silk are some of the options when it comes to fabrics for the
wedding sherwani. Pick a wedding sherwani in a colour that complements your
skin tone and in a fit that looks great on your body.
This is one occasion when
you should settle for nothing less than extravagant, so go and pick an outfit with
a lot of detailing. You can go in for short sherwanis with dhoti style pants or
longer ones with well fitted pyjamas. Wear it with a dupatta with details like
embroidery or zardosi for a regal look on your wedding day. If you are looking
for options online, look no further since we have a wonderful array of designer
wedding
sherwanis that are perfect for the wedding reception.
Once you have picked your wedding kurta or
sherwani, it is time to choose accessories. Pay attention to little details
like accessorizing your outfit with a pocket square in a contrasting colour and
wearing a jewelled watch. If you feel like it, throw in a string of pearls on
your kurta and add a jewelled pin on your headgear. That way, you can be rest
assured that you will appear every bit as royal as the bride standing beside
you on the day of your wedding.
