Diwali is here again! Festivals are nothing but the expression of one’s own gratitude, joy, appreciation and love. They are the best ways of bringing the society together to take time off and celebrate in unison. India is a land of festivals and celebrations. Festivals, whether religious or secular, national or local, serve to meet specific social and psychological needs and provide cohesiveness to social institutions. Eyes alight with the joy of sharing and caring, all Indians celebrate this triumph of good over evil – festival with gaiety and an infectious happiness! It is a way of celebrating nature and its wonderful and abundant bounties.
Indian fashion is known for its rich and diverse heritage, where each province has its own traditional apparel. I decided to tweak these various trends in the most innovative way I could. I gave my outfit an indo-western touch by wearing a translucent yellow dress with a golden brocade printed pant- for the see through effect. The respective customs and traditions gave me a huge plethora of options to experiment with. The end result is an element of ethnicity that worked for me. The trends of the east and west are incorporated creatively to form a different ‘fusion of fashion.’ I would love to know how you styled your festive outifit this year.
Happy Diwali.
Lots of Love and Happiness,
Envy.
