Festive fusion If you aren't comfortable with ethnic wear, try out these Indo-Western lines

Festive fusion

If you aren't comfortable with ethnic wear, try out these Indo-Western lines



Ethnic wear is heavy on texture and embroidery and many a times, one wants to experiment with silhouettes and works that are a perfect blend of traditional and contemporary. However, in recent times, a blend of Indian and Western clothing has become a popular trend, also known as Indo-Western or fusion wear. By playing with the right colours and silhouettes, one can turn a boring ethnic look into chic. The trend is fast becoming a hot favourite amongst women, be it a festival or any other formal events. There are several designers who have taken to the designing of Indo-Western fusion garments. Designer Nikasha Tawadey says, "I feel it's a phenomenon that is slowly catching up in India. The luxury brands in the west have realised that going understated is the big thing. It is understated, yet very chic and elegant, and is certainly going to be a big hit in the upcoming festive and bridal season."
