For days when you do not want plain formal or crisp suited attires.
Kurtas are fuss-free, traditional, aesthetic, and charming. They are practically a comfort wear, especially on those days when you cannot wrap up on time. Sometimes, you are simply compelled to wear something lightweight and graceful for field visits or desk work in sultry or humid temperatures. Resorting to the Indian classic style not merely is a basic utilitarian need but also an aesthetic one. Nonetheless, it is necessary to bring in some versatility and style to your workday kurtas. Far from being monotonous, boring, or garish, you can choose from a series of subtle and detailed designs that add to your beauty; effortlessly.
Cotton: Cotton is skin-friendly and soothes it during the hostile temperature or especially when the skin is highly sensitive to allergies. Also, for long days at work, cotton keeps you from sweating and stinking. It strives to keep the skin cool and dry. Since it is breathable and absorbent, you feel at ease to be.
Linen: Besides adding a touch of sophistication, linen promises good returns for your investment in apparels. They are sustainable and durable. The strength of linen fibres is commendable. Linen is certainly a smart pick if you sweat a lot.
Khadi: If you’re feeling a bit more traditional, khadi should work. Besides khadi is easy to maintain and unique for each apparel has its distinct style. With khadi, you will be spoilt for choices on seeing the sequence of textures, colours, and styling.
Solid kurtas are in one consistent colour and have a minimalistic chic appeal that beats almost any fancy apparel. Choose from breathable fabrics, such as cotton or linen, for that extra grace. Workwear kurtas with clean lines and minute detailing in mandarin collars, embroidery, or concealed buttons speak volumes. These are statement pieces, which can be further accentuated with churidars or trousers and formal jewellery pieces for the finesse.
To brighten up just about any dull day in the middle of a boring, predictable week, trust prints. Geometric shapes, abstract art, and flowers are well-appropriate for a formal setting, as long as you are not going overboard with the colours and texture. Prints look fab with multi-coloured leggings or cigarette pants and vibes perfectly with the office moods. While wearing a printed kurta, you can go easy on the accessories since the prints remain the focal point.
During the colder months, when nature is at odds and you are fidgeting about the next comfy-yet-cazz pair, have faith in layering. Kurtas can be worn under a structured blazer or a long-line jacket. A well-fitting cardigan and an ethnic motif or bright scarf complement kurtas very well. The goal is to harp on the versatility of kurtas without being excessive.
Months when the blistering heat keeps you from wearing anything heavy, try the simple cotton kurtas in light colours and a bit of prints and embroidery. You may pair these with palazzos or loose trousers to let your body breathe. Look for some detailing in the sleeves if you are bored with the usual sleeveless or half-sleeves.
Earthy tones are always fun, but here are some more options for the versatility.
