We at Shaadi Ka Laddu understand how overwhelming it can get to get it all done and stay on point, so here’s a guide to the best styles for your wedding.

Clothes Horse

Be it designer wear from a renowned label or a great fitting suit by your trusted tailor, it’s imperative to wear the right cuts and fits for your body.

Traditional Wear

The perfect look for the wedding ceremony, traditional styles such as achkans, bandh galas or even simple salwar kurtas are comfortable and classy. You can also pair the look with a dhoti or throw in a silk or khadi Nehru jacket to complete the quintessential Indian ethnic look.

Tuxedos

A well stitched Tuxedo is a must have for a formal event such as a cocktail party or the wedding reception. You can also skip the conventional black and opt for contemporary shades like steel grey, coral green or maybe a midnight blue. Go for light weight and crisp fabrics that give a good shape to the attire and are easy to breathe in too.

Mojaris & Juttis

You can pair your ethnic outfits with a variety of juttis. Beautiful Indian karigari and easy on the pocket, customized juttis are available online as well as in stores these days.

Brooches

Add understated glamour to your outfit with brooches or strings. Opt for small bejeweled pieces or even elaborate strings of pearls to accessorize your outfit.

Neck Ties

Nothing adds more charm to a formal suit more than a well-paired necktie. Opt for pastel colors or even playful prints if you’re looking to add a difference to your outfit.

Bows

Accentuate your black tuxedo with a bright colored bow for a classically stylish look. Bows add a touch of sophistication without overwhelming your overall look. If ties are too boring or common, pick a stylish bow to pep up your attire.

Cuff Links

Amplify your style quotient with subtle additions such as cuff links in interesting shapes and designs. Match them with your attire or just add an element of eccentricity with contemporary patterns.

Stoles

A rich velvet or satin stole can lift the simplest of attire in no time. Whether you plan to wear a bandh gala style suit or a churidar kurta, add a deep maroon or royal blue stole in rich fabrics to glamorize the look for the day.

Pocket Squares

Up your style quotient on your D-day by accessorizing your outfit with a smart pocket square. Chic, trendy and easily available, this one can make your look pop with minimum effort.
