Fashion Inspiration: Celebrity Inspired Must-Haves for Every Woman’s Wardrobe This Festive Season

As the festive and wedding season approaches, excitement for dressing up fills the air. From the sparkling lights of Diwali to the energetic garbas of Navratri and the intimate celebration of Karwa Chauth, each occasion calls for a wardrobe refresh.

Arundhati Bajaj, founder of GAJRA, presents a curated collection of wardrobe essentials that blend Indian craftsmanship, luxurious fabrics, and timeless designs, ensuring you’re festival-ready. 

No festive season is complete without the iconic saree. This timeless drape remains a staple in every woman’s wardrobe. Whether you choose a traditional Banarasi silk or a modern chiffon saree, the versatility of a saree is unmatched. Banarasi sarees, with their intricate designs, are perfect for weddings and grand festivities, while lightweight chiffon sarees with mukaish embroidery are ideal for cocktail parties. For daytime events, an organza Chikankari saree in soft pastel tones will give you a sophisticated look.

Suit sets are a festive go-to, but this season, it’s all about experimenting with pant styles. Straight-cut kurtas paired with sharara pants are perfect for making a statement during Navratri. Shararas add a dramatic flair to the classic suit set. For a more modern twist, pair your kurtas with cigarette pants for a sleek and chic vibe, ideal for Karwa Chauth, or go with palazzos for comfortable elegance during long celebrations. Fabrics like chanderi and organza elevate the look with a touch of opulence.

Flowy dresses are a must-have for effortless glamour. Opt for silk kaftan dresses adorned with zari work or classic long Chikankari dresses. These styles are ideal for Diwali dinners or pre-wedding events, offering both elegance and ease. Combining traditional craftsmanship with contemporary design, these dresses ensure you’ll be the center of attention! 

Co-ord sets are making waves this season, offering a modern twist to festive wear. Crafted from luxurious fabrics like Banarasi silk with intricate zari work, co-ords deliver a polished, put-together look with minimal effort. These sets are perfect for women who want to make a stylish statement without the weight of heavy outfits. 

A festive wardrobe is incomplete without the grand Anarkali. Its regal silhouette makes it a favorite for weddings and celebrations. Opt for a Chikankari Anarkali in trending shades like rose gold or lavender for evening functions, while mustard yellow is perfect for daytime festivities. The flattering Anarkali, cinched at the waist and flowing gracefully, creates an elegant look for any occasion. Pair it with statement jewelry and traditional juttis for a complete ensemble.  

This festive season, embrace the richness of Indian heritage with Banarasi weaves and Chikankari, while staying contemporary with modern silhouettes. Luxurious fabrics like silk, chiffon, organza, and chanderi not only exude elegance but also ensure comfort. Let your wardrobe reflect the festive spirit, making you shine at every celebration!
