Style File – Fashion options for the Indian Groom

When one talked of wedding clothes in the past, most of the focus used to be on the bride and her outfits. However, with changing times and with more options being available for the men, the grooms also have started experimenting with their wedding outfits rather than settling for the plain old wedding sherwani or suit. Today, we take you through the fashion options that the Indian grooms have when it comes to dressing up for their wedding and all the events associated with it.

An occasion like a wedding calls for traditional outfits that will make you stand apart from the crowd. Steer clear of your shirts and trousers for the pre-wedding events and parties. For small gatherings, go in for simple wedding kurtas. Pick wedding kurtas in cotton, raw silk or silk with detailing along the collar, cuff and the lapel. Beige, maroon, blue and mustard are great colour options for the kurta. Pair the wedding kurta with matching or contrasting pyjamas that are comfortable and well-fitted. Throw in a dupatta in a contrasting colour to up the ethnic quotient of the outfit. Take a look at some of the amazing wedding kurtas we have for the man looking for elegant traditional wear for the wedding or festive season.




For the wedding ceremony, you can choose a classy dhoti-kurta set. The Indian garment - dhoti is back in style and is a preferred choice for the traditional ceremonies. Wear a silk dhoti with a zari border and team it with an embroidered or brocade kurta or a bandhgala. If you are not too comfortable with the idea of draping a dhoti around your waist, you can go in for pre-stitched dhotis that come with an elastic band around the waist.

For the reception, the ideal outfit would be an opulent wedding sherwani in a rich colour. Linen, brocade, velvet, silk and cotton-silk are some of the options when it comes to fabrics for the wedding sherwani. Pick a wedding sherwani in a colour that complements your skin tone and in a fit that looks great on your body.

This is one occasion when you should settle for nothing less than extravagant, so go and pick an outfit with a lot of detailing. You can go in for short sherwanis with dhoti style pants or longer ones with well fitted pyjamas. Wear it with a dupatta with details like embroidery or zardosi for a regal look on your wedding day. If you are looking for options online, look no further since we have a wonderful array of designer wedding sherwanis that are perfect for the wedding reception.







Once you have picked your wedding kurta or sherwani, it is time to choose accessories. Pay attention to little details like accessorizing your outfit with a pocket square in a contrasting colour and wearing a jewelled watch. If you feel like it, throw in a string of pearls on your kurta and add a jewelled pin on your headgear. That way, you can be rest assured that you will appear every bit as royal as the bride standing beside you on the day of your wedding.
