Top Transitional Looks With Chikankari Kurtas
While it's a chilling winter, we all look for transitional outfit pieces that will back us up the entire year. Transitional silhouettes are multi-functional and will last you not just this season, but even the upcoming ones. At House of Kari, you will find versatile in-between-season staples in the form of detailed embroidery and intricate design on chikankari clothing.
Our vast collection of chikankari kurtis, pants, co-ord sets, kaftan and kimonos is to die for! If you’re in a dilemma as to how these beautiful pieces of chikankari clothing can be utilized around the year, we present a guide for transitional looks. Let’s begin!
Invest in neutral tones:
A neutral colour palette in your wardrobe will take you a long way ahead. For instance, you can style a beige chikankari anarkali kurti with a denim jacket, chikankari pants, jhumkas and sunnies for the spring season. For the colder months, you can replace denim with leather. You can implement the same with pants, co-ord sets, shirts, kimono and kaftans.
Go for a monochromatic look:
While a monotonous look is not what we all look forward to, a monochromatic look will save your styling game. That too, all year round! Invest in black and white and they will always be there for you — whether it’s a boho-chic look or a biker look. All you have to do is replace the kolhapuris with boots and add statement coats and jackets as an overlay to the outfit.
Statement pants for the win:
Relaxed pants are a trendy asset for every season. Yes, a wide-legged pair of trousers can save you in every season and on every occasion. Consider investing in a statement-making trouser that goes well with a plaid chikankari long kurta or textured shirt. Multi-coloured hand-embroidered chikankari trousers will help you clock in and clock out in every season, be it any season or occasion.
Easy-going layering essentials:
A poly silk kimono cover-up will never let you down; be it fancy winter dates or cozy and warm spring brunches. During the colder months, you can overlay it over turtle-neck sweaters and add snuggle-worthy mufflers to the outfit. While a crop top, cotton maxi or chikankari kurti will save the day for a spring-summer outfit — kimono edition. Whether it’s a hectic day at work or a casual college fair, a kimono overlay will make you stand out of the crowd.
Wrap it up:
Scarves, drapes, shawls and ponchos — these transitional outfit necessities will make you sail through every season with ease. How convenient is it to simply wrap yourself in the warmth of a stylish drape or shawl? Invest in staple drapes that can be coordinated with every outfit such as neutral shades or pastel colors. You can wrap them in different styles and style them with embroidered kurtis and shirts.
Go minimal:
We’ve heard, “less is more.” But how to implement it when it comes to fashion and styling? Well, that is a tricky question if you do not have a match focus point. With chikankari clothing, this problem is also resolved. At House of Kari, we promote fresh, clean, extremely wearable and present-day chic chikankari clothing that is versatile and easy to style. Be it any season, you deserve a comfortable and relaxed outfit — such as a crisp white embroidered shirt that can be styled in any manner; with a knitted sweater, blazer or tucked into a skirt.
Oversized clothing:
Baggy and oversized clothing is trending and for all the right reasons! Take, for instance, a printed kaftan that is extremely popular among women of all ages. Why? The unique patterns and versatility make it exceptional. It can be adorned as a dress during summertime and can be paired with a pair of trousers during spring/ autumn for a smart casual or chic look. Moreover, you can slide in a cozy jumper during chilly weather. Other baggy outfit ideas are shackets, oversized shirts, etc.
At House Of Kari, our aim is to take chikankari to places, at least away from the typical ideology of long kurta sets. We have introduced new designs that are beyond the usual white chikan work on plain, pastel fabric. Our exclusive collection of relaxed wardrobe staples is available in many different colors and fabric such as muslin, chiffon, mul mul, organza, and printed poly silk fabric in bolder colors.
