Durga Puja means five days of pandal hopping, adda and family visits — and five outfits. Here are fresh ideas that are festive, comfortable and easy to carry all day.
1. Shasthi — an applique kurta set
Start easy with a white or black kurta set with folk applique. It is light, comfortable for walking and photographs beautifully under pandal lights.
2. Saptami — leheriya & bandhani
Bright yellow and pink tie-dye brings instant festive cheer. Pair a leheriya kurti with a bandhani dupatta and silver jhumkas.
3. Ashtami — the classic lal-par
Anjali morning calls for red and white. Choose a kantha-bordered saree or a white saree with a red blouse stitched to measure.
4. Nabami — mirror-work chaniya choli
Go all out with an ajrakh chaniya choli — mirror work and cowrie trims are made for evening lights and dhunuchi naach.
5. Dashami — elegant salwar suit
For sindoor khela and bijoya visits, a soft chinon or silk salwar suit keeps you graceful and comfortable.
Find all these looks at Rajasthali Boutique, Berhampore — and book your blouse stitching early, before the Puja rush.
