The evolution of fashion from various countries and ethnicities evolving into fusion fashion has revolutionized the current clothing trends. One of these various fashion fusions is Indo-western wear, which has been very popular among the Indian and the Indian-American community.
As we know, typical women's ethnic wear, like designer saree or lehenga choli, can not be practically worn as casual wear or might be a bit difficult to handle by some of us. However, we can still show off our exotic ethnicity with Indo-western fusion wear and enjoy the best of both worlds in such cases! With Indo-Western outfits, we Indian Americans can tune into our American styles with a hint of our ethnic wear.
You can attend regular classes wearing a comfortable and pretty kurta with blue jeans and a Kani stole and match it with ethnic bridal indian jewelry like jhumka or Indian bangles. Indo-Western Kurtis is available in various styles and silhouettes, such as A-line, Angrakha, Anarkali, C-cut, trail cut, shirt-style, tail cut, asymmetrical, and so on.
You can also choose your indo-western party wear, matching a designer saree blouse with high-waisted jeans or simply regular jeans, leggings, or jeggings, and pair it with a designer Indian Dupatta. Finally, if you are unsure about your mix and match skills, you can go for general fusion wear like the dhoti dress or a pant saree!
Indo-Western tops include Indo-Western styles of Kurtis and tunics, various colors, prints, patterns, and styles. They may be paired with jeans, leggings, jeggings, and various other women indian clothing wear.
