HOW TO STYLE A BLOUSE FOR DIFFERENT CEREMONIES

A blouse is a versatile and crucial piece of clothing. It’s a wardrobe stable and for all the right reasons. Blouses can transfigure themselves to any Indian ceremony when styled and paired correctly.

The earliest form of the blouse can be dated back to the 6th century B.C. Blouse used to be a chest band known as Stanapatta. The overall ensemble including the lower garment, antriya, and a veil, uttariya was popularized with the name Poshak which is now identified as a Saree.

According to a report by the BBC, Gyananadiri Devi was the one who popularised blouses, jackets, chemises, and the modern style of the saree in India. The English terms ‘blouse’ and ‘petticoat’ then gradually became a part of the Indian dictionary.

With the emerging gravitation toward adaptable clothing and growing taste for uniqueness in social media, blouses have become quite resourceful and flexible. Upcycle fashion is now dominating the creative aspect of the fashion industry. So, here are some constructive approaches on how to carry a blouse to different occasions;

1. MEHENDI CEREMONY

Mehendi is a light and breezy occasion, and this is how guests and relatives are usually dressed. Something too decorated or frilly will seem a little unconventional and eccentric. There are tons of propositions on how to style a blouse for a theme as subtle yet lively as this.

• Pick a basic pastel green blouse and coordinate it with the same shaded tiered skirt.
• Pair a casual floral printed saree with a contrasting blouse.
• A three-piece suit inclusive of a jacket, a fitted blouse, and cigarette pants will look astonishing.

2. HALDI CEREMONY

Haldi is yet another breezy ceremony together with a lot of fun and frolic. It’s better not to plump for ostentatious garments as they are most probably going to get stained. An indo-western fusion will be companionable for such a hearty occasion. Picking out blouses for semi-casual fits would complement the theme of this function.

• Partner elaborated plain blouses with printed sarees for an adorable touch.
• Pair a mirror-embellished blouse with a gathered printed lehenga to take it up a notch.
• Victorian-style blouses coupled with palazzo or gharara with a hint of bohemian jewelry will do wonders.

3. SANGEET

Sangeet is a beautiful evening charged with dance performances, delicious meals, and delightful get-togethers. You can deck up with all the gloss and shimmer you want for this party. It’s best to go for something comfortable. Attires that can provide enough ease for you to flaunt those dance moves will be well-suited here.

• Neat and well-defined necklines such as illusion or collar neck will look stunning.
• Single-hued attire for a saree set sewed by flashy embroidery and cut-work will add glamour to the function.
• For comfortable garb, go for front-slit blouses paired with matching trousers.

4. RING CEREMONY

For the ring ceremony, pick out elegant and smoothly finished materials like satins and silks. Balanced embroidery will provide a visual rhythm to the ensemble. To keep embellishments in symmetry, steer clear of hefty jewelry and choose sleek diamond earrings instead. 

• Twin satin blouse with a satin saree for a refined touch.
• An embroidered blouse matched with a graceful saree would be a fancy substitute.
• If you’re not a saree enthusiast, then pair a cape-sleeved blouse with adorned straight-cut pants.

5. WEDDING CEREMONY 

It’s finally the time when you will be inundated with an outright glisten, glitter, and gold. All the weighty jewelry and heavily ornamented attires are well-fitted for this ceremony. Although, it would be gratifying if you keep yourself away from absolute reds and way too much gold.

• You can pair an elaborate blouse with a highly gathered lehenga.
• If you’re a fan of intricate art, don’t fight shy of too much embroidery.
• A peplum blouse coupled with flared lehenga in pastel shades will set you apart from the rest.
