Karva Chauth is traditionally respected all around India, especially observed in the Chaturthi of Krishna Paksha of Kartik month which is favourable for women. It is a fasting ritual observed by married women for the well-being of their husbands.
The outfit you pick must reflect the essence of this auspicious day, making you feel elegant and connected with rituals. However, choosing the right traditional attire for this occasion can be a challenging task, therefore we are sharing a guide to curating a perfect look.
Styling Tips For Karwa Chauth
Usually wearing red colour on Karwa Chauth is considered to be lucky. Here are a few tips that will help you look elegant on this special day.
Traditional Attire
Kurtis is a timeless choice. Opt for a comfortable anarkali kurti of vibrant red, maroon or deep magenta colours, symbolising love and property. This style offers easy movement while keeping in mind the traditional vibe. Make sure you pick an Anarkali kurti with detailed embroidery or sequins.
Accessories
Pick statement accessories like red bangles, a necklace or choker or earrings to enhance the overall look. Add a traditional coker paired with contrasting earrings to level up your outfit. Do not forget to wear Bangles or Chooras as it plays a significant role during Karwa Chauth. A nose ring or a mang tikka will add a touch of elegance.
Makeup and Hair
Indian women dress up the best for special occasions and topping it up with classic makeup will make you feel like a goddess. A bold red lipstick, winged eyeliner and highlighter can make you glow like never before. For hair, simply go for a traditional hairstyle like a bun enhanced with fresh flowers like gajra or loose curls.
Mehendi
Applying Henna or Mehendi cannot be neglected on Karva Chauth as it represents the good fortune, health and prosperity of your partner. Henna is not just a part of the ritual but also looks beautiful and adds an artistic touch to the entire look.
Footwear
When it comes to picking the right footwear comfort is the first thing that comes to mind. Opt for comfortable plus stylish footwear such as juttis or sandals. Also, ensure that your footwear matches the colour and style of your outfit.
Dupatta Draping
If you have finalized to wear an anarkali pay special attention to how you drape the dupatta. Whether you drape across one shoulder, over the head or around your arms each style adds a unique dimension to your look.
