Holi is a festival that is full of colours and brightness. There’s nothing that we leave that doesn’t involve a mixture of them. Starting from clothes, food, colour powder, and water.

Many people use flowers to light up their houses with brightness. While you may be finding different colours and outfits, we got your covered!

Giving a hairstyle other than open hair or a messy bun will be of no use as you will be soaking wet at the end of the event.

White Kurta With Colourful Dupatta

Going all white is the way. Going for a kurta with the chicken embroidery all over is a suitable choice. You can pair your kurta with a white palazzo and throw in a colourful dupatta of your choice. You can go for a phulkari or a banarasi dupatta, whatever suits your preference.

For a bohemian vibe, you can go in for a flat pair of banarasi chappal with hints of colours with multiple tassels around the chappal.

An all-white outfit is a classic choice for Holi. While many people opt for a safe and sound option of a white kurta with a white palazzo, many have the choice of opting for indo-western attire.

Looking at the B-Town diva, Kiara Advani, you can also go in with an indo-western attire with similar inspiration. You can pair yours with a set of the white palazzo.

This is a great choice for everybody who loves a boho look! Kiara's choice of accessories was a long necklace with red tassels. She completed the look with a pair of clear heels. With this look, Kiara Advani's hair was kept all wavy and makeup was done in shades of pink. If you are looking for an indo-western set then this can be a good choice. You can work on your accessories if you want to go OTT there.

When Priyanka Chopra was in India with Nick Jonas, she attended Isha Ambani's Holi party in the most stunning ethnic outfit. For the night party, the diva picked a white kurta and palazzo set with colourful detailing from the house of Abu Sandeep. Priyanka Chopra's kurta came with a palazzo and matching dupatta.

The colourful detailing all over the outfit had shades like yellow, blue, orange. For accessories, she opted for a pair of statement earrings. She rounded off the look with a pair of yellow heels which came with a clear strap. Her makeup was kept bold with the look, kohl-rimmed eyes, and bold red lipstick.

If you are not a fan of heavy, OTT ethnic wear then PeeCee's white colourful kurta can be a good pick. You can also carry this later for puja at home or a get-together.

Rather than going in all plain with a classic all-white look, you can pick on a white kurta that has chikan embroidery work done all over or partially done over it.

Chikan embroidery is an embroidery style that is similar to chikan work in India as early as the 3rd century BC by Megasthenes, who mentioned the use of flowered muslins by Indians.

Chikan is a delicate and artfully done hand embroidery on a variety of textile fabrics like muslin, silk, chiffon, organza, net, etc. White thread is embroidered on cool, pastel shades of light muslin and cotton garments. Nowadays chikan embroidery is also done with colored and silk threads in colors to meet the fashion trends and keep chikankari up-to-date. Lucknow is the heart of the chikankari industry today and the variety is known as Lucknawi chikan.

Pair your chikan embroidered kurta with a colourful palazzo and add a pair of banarasi chappal to complete the look.
