If you have to attend any upcoming haldi ceremony, then this bright yellow anarkali suit can be your pick. It comes in a georgette fabric that adds a more flowy look and volume to the flare. It has machine embroidery of silver zari at the bottom hem, three strips that can give you a taller look. It gets balanced with small booties distributed evenly all over. The floral print organza dupatta has cutwork embroidery on the borders, giving the piece of fabric some depth. It is floor-length as well as full-sleeved, with its yoke ending up a few inches below the chest.

Another piece by Omkar textile, but this one is in chinon silk fabric. It comes in Rama Blue colour that can give you a very sophisticated and royal look. Apart from that, this anarkali gown stands out from the crowd because it has flipped its embroidery. Let me explain. Usually, the thick-width embroidery is observed at the hem of the skirt. But this suit has almost a plain lower part (with just a thin strip at the end), and a dramatic upper part. The yoke body has heavy faux-embroidery on it in geometric patterns. The zari and threadwork are done in an organised manner, and delicate flowers are added all over. Similar floral work is spread on the hem of the sleeves as well. The dupatta is in a lightweight fabric, and you can see thin diagonal lines of the same work on it. Overall, it can be a classy option to wear to any night wedding.

Some pieces can make you look traditional and glamorous. And then there are some pieces that can give you a classy and ethereal look. This outfit by Shishkala falls in the second category. It comes in georgette fabric and in white colour and can be suitable for day weddings and festivities. The designers were mindful of the work as they picked subtle colours that would not make this suit too loud or sparkly. You get a temple-shaped border at the hem with a colour palette including pastel blues, yellow and pink. Apart from that, the glittery bit is added with the golden seap and sequin work that makes the hues pop out. Similar work is done in the upper body, with the yoke gathering up till the waist, cinching it perfectly and giving you that perfect silhouette. The dupatta also comes in white but in a lightweight fabric and has cutdaan pattern in pastel shades at the border.

If you are someone who thinks that wearing dark shades to any wedding or festivity can make you stand out in the crowd, then you have come to the right spot. This navy blue anarkali suit comes in Maslin cotton fabric. I know what you might be thinking, navy blue as well as cotton…how does this become festivities appropriate? Well, it’s all in the detailing. The floor-length suit has a deep sweetheart neck with silver patchwork on the border. A black fabric is added to cover the low-cut part, making it modest but different. The printed skirt area has leaf motifs in white all over it. Solid silver strip patches are observed at the hem with a bit of geometrical patterns around them. The sleeves are also heavily printed, and the net dupatta has small silver seap stitched to it. This gives the outfit a starry night effect. You can pair anarkali kurta set with oxidised jewelery for a chic look.
