All the desi-at-heart ladies will understand just how wonderful it feels to slip into a comfy printed kurta hot summer days.
On some days they make you feel like the object of Mahmoud Darwish’s poetry, and on some days they make you feel like the female protagonist of some Imtiaz Ali movie, navigating through life.
If you are someone who has made up their mind on making heads turn this summer with traditional wear, be it with a chikankari kurti for women a suit set made from pure cotton, congratulations for you have arrived at the right place! And no, we will not suggest you revamp your entire wardrobe. Rather, we will talk about a few ethnic fits that you can and should get yourself to wear this season.
But before that, let us look into the cause behind the steep rise in the popularity of ethnic wear for women, which has a lot to do with Bollywood movies. By showing strong female protagonists clad in desi fits from head to toe, Bollywood has made Indian women get back in touch with their basics. From Deepika Padukone’s look in Piku to Kareena Kapoor’s look in Jab We Met, Indian filmmakers have done an incredible job at making sure that the importance of traditional wear does not fade away with time.
And as if Bollywood was not enough, every other day we see a reel of some lovely woman wearing a beautiful chikankari kurti, making us search for chikankari kurtis online right away. The allure of ethnic wear is such that once a woman starts falling in love with it, there is no going back.
Now, let us move straight to a few statement-worthy pieces that you can add to your summer closet.
