Diwali is the festival of lights, joy, and prosperity, and it's also the perfect time to shop for your favourite festive season. This season, you can make it even more special with your outfits like sarees, floor-length Anarkali, pre-stitched sarees, and much more. From intricate embroidery to sequin embellishments, Diwali festive wear is all about revelling in style. Let's dive into some of the most eye-catching and trend-setting outfits for women this Diwali.


Printed Lehenga

     















That staple piece in the archive lately became a favourite to wear at Diwali or other festivals is the print lehenga. With gorgeous patterns and colours, the prints are the epitome of wealthy Indian heritage. Lehengas with motifs in hues of red, yellow, green, or royal blue make the festive feel materialise instantly.


To pair with the intricate print lehenga is a contrasting blouse and a dupatta with minimal ornamentation so that all eyes are solely on the intricate print. Adding a set of traditional gold jewellery and a maang tikka can elevate one's level of elegance. This type of lehenga is perfect for those wanting to wear something unique yet rooted in tradition.


Embroidered Pre-Stitched Saree

     

















In elegance, sarees are a definition. But for those who want to skip the hassle of draping, a pre-stitched saree is an excellent option. This Diwali, it's time to opt for an embroidered pre-stitched saree that combines tradition with all the convenience you might possibly look for. These sarees will come in various fabrics: silk, chiffon, or georgette. Available with intricate thread work, zari, or sequin work all over them, they look just as regal as a traditional saree.


The best part of a pre-stitched saree is that you can enjoy the look without bothers of pleats for drapes. Pick one that has an embellished blouse, to go with statement earrings, and that look which has a festive, yet easy-to-manage look.












Sequin Embellished Anarkali Suit

     
















Effortlessly glamorous is just the look you'll achieve if you choose a sequin-embellished Anarkali. Floor-length Anarkalis with sequins speak of luxury and festivity so well that this particular ensemble suits grand Diwali parties. Be it a subtle sequin border on one part or a fully sequined bodice, you just glow-in every sense of the word.


It can be balanced with neutral makeup and a very simple hairstyle. Add the sparklers through accessorising with chandelier earrings or a statement ring. Pair up the Anarkali with some embellished juttis or metallic heels to give it that finesse feel.














Sharara with Foil Print Off Shoulder Kurta

      












Those who wish to break free from the usual yet want the festive flavour going can opt for a sharara with an off-shoulder kurta in foil print, the perfect modern attire. Wide-legged sharara pants are extremely comfortable, and the off-shoulder kurta as a modern twist to the traditional outfit gives it much importance. Foil prints especially metallic colours such as gold or silver give out this great festive sheen, so the outfit will be perfect for Diwali.


Statement pieces such as a choker or heavy earrings can complement the ensemble with the off-shoulder look. High heels or platform sandals would not only complete the garment but also end it with a sleek finish.


Embellished Kurta for Women

     
















Wrapping a kurta embroidered in slim-fit pants offers a flawless, understated look for Diwali. This would work best for people who like understatement over bling. Go in for kurtas having intricate thread work or light sequins on them, giving a festive feel without the overdone drama of it all. Silk, chanderi, and brocade are great fabrics for that richness of the outfit.


Match delicate jewellery like a pair of jhumkas or a dainty necklace with embroidered mojaris or metallic flats. This is a great outfit for small gatherings or pooja ceremonies where you want to feel comfortable yet stylish.


Banarasi Silk Saree with Contemporary Blouse

     















The Banarasi silk saree is one of the timelessly elegant mandatory pieces of festive wear. Rich texture and intricate zari work are sought after these days, making this one of the most divine pieces of the old kind of Indian craftsmanship. But you can still give it a modern spin by complementing it with a contemporary blouse design, something such as a halter neck or a cold-shoulder blouse. That helps you have that rich heritage of the saree while adding that contemporary edge.


Accessorise with a statement jewellery item, such as a choker or heavy earrings, and finish with sleek buns or loose waves. This is a dress to make you shine at any Diwali celebration.


Diwali is a perfect moment to show off the love in ethnic yet stylish attire. Whether you opt for the elegance of a Banarasi silk saree, an evening-long glamour of sequences adorning an Anarkali suit, or the fashion zing to go with the outfit along with the sharara and an off-shoulder kurta, the possibilities keep floating before you. Whatever may be your dress, remember that Diwali is all about frolic, light, and colours, so you must ensure that the dress shows the celebration.
