It’s time to trade your candy hues and ostentatious neon for timeless neutrals to relish the most out of these failsafe yet fashion-forward trend. Think dusky monotone lehengas, sharply tailored urban separates that have a knack to enrich every skin tones perfectly. With the inception of neutrals on the centre stage, these are the hues to double tap, add to your cart and lineup in your wardrobe to redefine your festive statement imagining them in the most dazzling looks.

Lustre of Beige

Head-to-toe is how the style mavens recommend swinging the trend for the summer festivities for a muted yet graceful flair. You can simply dress it up with accessories or pare it down with textured ornate, as per the glam quotient you desire.

Exoticism of Green  

Eye-soothing tints of sea green, mints, sage green, olive perfectly defined the summery kick on the runways of this season. Attuned with the warm temperatures, the colour is certainly the key investment of your festive closet. From daytime soirees to formal affairs in the dusk, imagine the hues with prints, blingy embellishments and even colour-blocking to distinguish it from the camouflaging trend.

Iridescence of Ivory

Imbibing a sense of nostalgia and reinstating its classic flair this season, ivory won us all over again. The hue got covetable than ever with tonal embellishments and artsy elements on the Spring/Summer 19 runway. It’s pure nuances blend seamlessly with every look you desire- glamorous, minimal or opulent. An ivory saree or anarkali can be the most timeless piece in your heirloom.

Glamour of Grey

Freshly injected into the festive wear scene, shades of grey are anything but basic. Grey hues evoke earthiness while luring the onlookers with its effortlessness naturally. Refresh your festive wear closet with unconventional stone, ash or pale greys. Monochrome is the way to go for an exquisite appeal. Take a detour from traditional wedding-appropriate reds and yellows and experiment with dusky greys for a fashionable trousseau.
