When it comes to wardrobe options, we Indians are truly blessed. Not only is our fashion trend meter on point with Western styles – be it metallic or retro, we also have a huge treasure chest of traditional inspiration for our closet staples. We can be rocking out in Daisy Dukes and combat boots in one day, and turn around and flummox the world with a kurti and a bindi the next. Why stop there? Fashionistas with their head in the game are also experimenting with fusion wear, which merges the best of both traditional and modern, creating a style that is as unique as it is Indian.
