It is a misconception that men don't like to
dress up. In ethnic festivities or wedding seasons, men also want to look
stylish and classy. They also want to experiment with different types of
traditional men kurtas and ethnic outfits and browse various sense
and style statements to create their unique style.
While Indian ethnic clothing is vibrant and
elegant for women, men also have multiple options to choose from, like sherwani
jackets, kurta, and many more to dress up for religious events, wedding ethnic
festivities or even for a simple family get-together. So we have prepared a
comprehensive guide regarding the various types of traditional and ethnic
clothes that men can have for different occasions.
Kurta Churidar
Kurta and Churidar are definitely on top of
the list of ethnic combos for men. Along with being extremely comfortable, this
combo is easy to wear and is very classy. As a result, it is a prevalent choice
amongst men. You can also buy a kurta churidar with an ethnic jacket if you
feel your solid colour kurta is too bland for a particular occasion.
Kurta Salwar
The next favourite item on the list of men
kurtas is a kurta salwar combo. Just like kurta churidar, it also provides
excellent comfort along with a unique style statement. The salwar is loose fit
and a bit baggy, which gives a different look to the entire outfit. You can
also find salwars similar to a Patiala that are embroidered with gold or contrasting borders, giving a
modern or contemporary look.
Sherwani
Also known as the groom's favourite, the
classic sherwani is a type of men kurtas that are usually worn during a grand
event like a wedding or special family functions. It varies from simple ornate
Sherwanis to myriad fabrics that always makes it a tough choice. Sherwanis were
originally not Indian dresses. They have been brought on by the Mughal royalty and have evolved into classy wedding wear for
men today. You can also pair a sherwani with churidar/dhoti or safa and wrap a
dupatta around.
Achkan Sherwani
It is a type of sherwani and is a perfect
choice for making a unique style statement. The fashionable attire adds jazz to
the look and is popular among men who want to look classy on their wedding
day. The primary difference between a
sherwani and an achkan is the length, fabric, and flare from the waist. While
the sherwani has a longer length, achkan has more flare from the waist to the
bottom. The knee-length coat is added to give for a more masculine look.
Bandhgala or Jodhpuri
Suit
This outfit is often referred to as the prince
coat and is a must-have in every man's wardrobe. The benefit of a bandhgala is
that it fits any and every body type and gives a royal look to the individual.
