FIRST LOOK

December 29, 2018

Unsung wardrobe heroes, kurtas have an affinity to polish up your look with a stroke of elegance, whether you’re headed to a wedding or simply dressed for a formal dinner. A sizeable collection of kurtas and tunics goes a long way in defining your style statement, courtesy- it’s unerring versatility and ubiquity. Kurtas have been a part of the Indian repertoire perennially and would be till eternity, thus, flaunting one can never go out of style. So, get a little experimental and turn your wardrobe classics into a style essential this season interpreting them in incredible ways.

Monochrome Mood

This monochrome Ridhi Mehra jacket style tunic might be speaking bohemian loud and clear but the right twist will give it a tinge of chic and oomph both. Teamed with flared sleeve shirt and palazzo, the piece extends a primped statement for a festive gathering, black cigarette pants mean business for a boardroom meeting and semi-sheer layering with boots gives it a perfect edgy nudge. A winsome look, in every way!
