Call me weird, but, if you give me any amount of money for shopping, I’d end up with cotton/linen/ handloom salwar suits or Kurtis rather than a swanky embellished dress. Well, I’ve come to realize I am not alone and it’s all coming back in a full circle. Cotton suits are classy, modern, and the obvious choice for some ladies who prefer convenience over style. The best part about the cotton salwar is you just need to get a few details right! You are sorted. If you haven’t already guessed, neck and sleeves designs are those crucial bits. And, yes, we will chalk out some churidar neck designs from the latest catalogues to make the job easier for you.
1. Broad V-Neck
I’m sure we all have one of these Angrakha style dresses in our ethnic closets. If your dress material is of black linen, indigo or wall art, you should consider getting this broad V-neck design that sweeps to the side. Get piping for the neck and let it form a side knot. It adds definition to your outfits and sits well on you.
2. Simple Chinese Collar
Chinese collar is one sure-shot way of sprucing up your cotton salwar suit. Yes, take one good look at this kurta, and you will realize that there is just one detail that lights the whole thing up. Plus, this is a hot favourite among women who like smart dressing, because it makes you look elegant and sophisticated. A plain white or black cotton dress with palazzo pants, an updo, and silver jewellery are all you need to look uber classy.
3. High U-Neck
High necks are one of those retro trends that are making a comeback, so if you have always been the kind who likes high necks instead of deep ones, you’d be happy to know that you can get them by the dozen now! You can go heavy or light with the embroidery pattern depending on the material.
4. Scoop Neck With Mirror Work
Chanderi cotton, silk cotton, etc. are expensive variants and make for exciting party wear options. Go with a scoop neckline and embellish it with mirror work. The mirrors add to the style of the fabric and lift it all up further.
5. Collar Neck
By now, we know that one piece shirt dresses are coming back, and so are kurta and Patiala sets in this style. A plain collar style short kurta with cowl or Patiala pants; or long collar Kurtis with palazzo or cigarette pants look super chic. Throw on some pumps, style your hair in beachy waves, put on smokey eye makeup – and you are sorted!
6. Mandarin Collar With Buttoned Closure
A-line style kurta and Mandarin collar is an interesting combination. Again, this looks nice with silk or chanderi mixed cotton dresses. Go for a buttoned enclosure just like this one and let those little details take over. Go for contrast colours for the collar and whatever embroidery you like.
7. Choker Style Neck Design
The choker is probably the biggest 90s trend to have made a comeback and fashionistas all over the world are more than happy to have them back. And, so are our ethnic labels. Who would have thought that a choker style collar will go with an Indian kurta or salwar – well, here you go! Skip the dupatta and neck accessories, and bank on your earrings
