Office Ethnic Day is your one chance to swap out corporate blouses for traditional blouses and showcase your quintessential fashion style. But hey, it is your place of work after all, so as much as we’d like to dress our best, it is important to balance work-appropriate and fashion-forward styles. So, whatever your vibe and personal style is -
Here are 5 saree styles that leave a mark at work on this ethnic day!
1. The Power-Drape
Nothing says confident and chic like a georgette saree paired with a sharp-cut blouse. Think muted pastels, stripes, or earthy tones for that minimalist aesthetic. Style it with sleek silver jewelry, a low bun, and a hint of kajal, perfect for presentations and post-lunch compliments. Also, remember Rani from Rocky and Rani? Well, that’s what we’re going for here!
2. The Fusion Twist
Ditch the regular blouse and throw on a crisp white shirt or a statement crop top with your favourite saree. Cinch it at the waist if you’re feeling extra stylish and throw on minimal studs, a wrist watch, and a dainty tennis bracelet or necklace. This fusion is ideal for fashion-forward workplaces where tradition and trend go hand in hand. Why we recommend this one? It is not only experimental but also totally wearable!
3. The Desi Diva: Banarasi or Chanderi Elegance
Want to go all out? A light Banarasi silk saree with zari detailing is an absolute show-stopper here. Opt for pastel or jewel tones and pair with classic gold studs and minimal makeup. Why we think this look works? The rich textures and traditional weaves make an impression without looking over-the-top for the office.
4. Traditional Staple
For those who like to stick to the traditional roots, go for the classic kadwa butta muslin silk saree, embellished with floral zari motifs. Pair with jhumkas, bangles, and keep the drape simple yet classy. Choose a bright or jewel colour that relays pure Indian craftsmanship and keep the rest of the look minimal to balance it out.
5. The Monochrome Magic
A monochrome look always screams sophistication. Choose one solid colour, like charcoal grey, emerald green, or rust, and match the blouse, saree, and accessories. Keep it sleek with a ponytail or straight hair. This fuss-free, modern, and simple look does the magic without trying too hard.
Office Ethnic Day is more than just dressing up. It’s about embracing your roots with confidence and a personal flair. So, make sure you wear your personality, keep it neat, and prioritize comfort over everything. Oh, and don’t forget to put on a bindi. That, indeed, is the secret to a well-curated ethnic look!
