Varieties in Indian Men’s Wear

“Men’s fashion is not as diverse as women’s assorted styles, silhouettes or patterns”. The statement is true to some extent.  As compared to women, men have limited options that revolve around suits for formal occasions & a pair of jeans & tee for casual times.  They can style their wardrobe with dapper western as well as Indian Ethnic ensembles that go well with formal & informal occasions.  Western ensembles like Trousers, Suits or Tuxedos are mostly worn at work , business meetings or a date night. For traditional occasions  & Indian festivities, weddings and other celebrations, they may go for truly ethnic & authentic line of outfits that range from Kurta Pajamas to Sherwanis.

Teal Blue Art Silk Readymade Kurta With ChuridarMen’s clothing in India substantially focus on intricate designs, regal silhouettes and woven fabrics. The most popular type of clothing is the kurta pajama; it consists of a long, straight cut tunic worn over a pair of loose-fitting trousers. This is typically worn for daily wear, though the finer silk varieties might be paired with an ornate men’s dupatta or stole and worn for special occasion. On the other hand, printed or plain cotton kurtas with a shorter hemline have also become popular amongst the younger generation as a casual wear outfit. They often pair them up with jeans or western trousers to create a funky, fusion fashion statement.

Men’s Indian wedding outfits are much more ornate and rich-looking than the casual wear varieties. Wedding wear kurtas tend to come with intricate embroidery, detailed designs and vibrant prints.
