8 Fashion Tips to Plan Your Diwali Outfit

Diwali is all about sweets, bursting crackers, get-togethers and exchanging gifts. 

Oh, and, but not without dressing up. From accessories to attire, everything should be perfect. If you are running short of ideas to style yourself, here are some tips.

First and foremost you should always prioritise comfort, even if it comes to festivals. Diwali requires a ton of running around, so make sure you are wearing something that does not constrict your moments.

 Choose clothes that reduce the risk of catching fire. During Diwali, all corners of one’s house are lit up with diyas and candles, therefore it’s advisable to avoid dupattas that are hard to manage.

Pick luminous and smooth fabrics like banarasi silk, chanderi, and organza to get an effortlessly bright and cheerful look.

 If you are wearing outfits made of fabrics like khadi, use bright accessories and jewellery to add more vibrancy to the outfit.

Streamline your online shopping by putting filters such as price range or size. This will help you save time and prevent you from getting overwhelmed with too many options.

Don’t be afraid of mixing and matching. Diwali is all about colours and bling. Play with your creativity, be it by improvising crop tops as blouses or using belts as kamarbandhs.

Don’t underestimate the power of makeup. A sparkly eye shadow or bright-coloured lipstick can elevate a boring outfit without much effort.

When in doubt, stick to the classics. Girls can always rely on a solid-coloured saree and boys can stick to a simple kurta set with a Nehru jacket.
