Modern Muse Happy Dussehra

Dussehra

Dussehra it is known in Mysore, is one of the most auspicious and widely-celebrated festivals in India. Mysuru Dasara is the official state festival of Karnataka

What is Dussehra?

After nine days of Navratri celebration, the 10th and final day is called Vijay Dashami, the day of victory or Dussehra. This is the day when one feels empowered after the nine days of attaining various powers. When one feels relieved one did not get entangled in the quest for success and power, instead participated in them with due reverence and is out of it. This is the day when people show gratitude to everything they have got and also thank nature for the success and power achieved.

And so the Festive season is here and along with it the invites for many Dussehra parties. Chances are you’ve been invited to an office party with your colleagues and maybe even the higher-ups. Unsure of what to wear? Here are some Indian menswear options for you to consider:

1.Kurta pajama

This basic ensemble of classic fashion can suit any party with an Indian theme.Depending on the scale of the party, you can decide how fancy or stylish your kurta should be. You can go for an embroidered one, or even just a plain one in a bright colour.

2. Nehru Jacket:

Nehru jacket is once again a fashion trend and donning it over your Kurta-Pyjama gives a bit of formal look to your outfit. You can go for this ensemble if it’s a big event where you want to make an impression. Especially if you are senior in age or designation, a Nehru jacket will help give a slightly more mature look.

3. Kurta-Jeans:

Now if it’s just a small, casual party thrown by a couple of colleagues, then you don’t have to stress about your outfit and can just keep it simple. A Kurta thrown over a pair of denims has always been one of the most common fashion styles as it looks cool and casual. It will fit the prerequisites of the party dress code very well.

4. Dhoti:

A Dhoti-Kurta combination is for the slightly more adventurous. If you’re bored of the usual combinations then you can amp up your style with a dhoti and make a statement. A plain white or off-white dhoti works with a bright kurta. You can even take your style quotient a notch above by adding a Nehru jacket or coat or Indo western.

5. Indo-Western Jacket:

If this Dussehra party is a big, formal affair with all levels of employees attending, then you need to make a strong impression. For this, just a kurta-pyajama orkurta-denims won’t work. You need to appear a little formal also. You therefore need to team up your attire with a smart Indo-Western jacket. It is the latest men jacket style which will make you look stylish, yet a little formal.
