Traditional Wear For Diwali

Celebrating Diwali with Style and Panache

Diwali or Deepawali is the biggest and perhaps the brightest festival of India. It is celebrated throughout the length and breadth of the country. It is called the festival of happiness and merrymaking because each and every person shares his happiness through sweets, gifts and display of colorful lights and burning of different types of crackers.

India is a vast country that has hundreds of communities. Each community has a different lifestyle, tradition and culture that it follows. They have their own distinct attires, wearing style; make up, food and ways of celebrating festivals that make them different and unique.

It is the uniqueness and different ways that people celebrate Diwali that the entire country seems to light up and sparkle to make Diwali a festival of lights that it is known as.

Women make festivals a celebration with their enthusiasm, by their dressing, their makeup and their adornment of jewellery. Every woman loves to celebrate Diwali in her own special way and you can also celebrate Diwali with style and panache. Here are some ways that can make the upcoming Diwali a memorable one for your entire family.

Dressing in Traditional Style:

These days you can see most people opting to dress in their regular clothes with men choosing to wear a shirt or a T- shirt for an upper and trouser or denim for a lower. Traditional dresses give you a completely different look. Therefore to celebrate Diwali in style and panache it is important that you give yourself a look that is different from others and is traditional in style and essence. Traditional dressing allows you to stand out of the crowd and look stylish.

Every woman tries very hard to look beautiful and catch all the attention in the gathering. Most women these days try to wear western or Indo western dresses for festivals and functions as they are more comfortable and easy to carry than traditional dresses like sari or Lehenga.

There are a number of states in the country and each state has a different way of dressing, makeup and celebrating festivals.

The Tamil men wear their traditional silk dhoti and shirt while the women wear the famous Kancheepuram silk saris that are often passed on from generation to generation and young girls wear half sari or the Pavadai. The women adorn gold jewellery with flowers on their hair and apply makeup to look the most beautiful on the day.
