Lohri, a Punjabi folk festival, is celebrated almost every 13th day of January to mark the end of the winter solstice. Also known as the festival of harvest, Lohri is celebrated with utter enthusiasm and cheer. Indian festivals are not only the time when people come together but also when we fashionistas can sport new looks and flaunt our attires in the crowd and on social media. Primarily associated with Punjabi culture, on Lohri, women are often witnessed wearing ensembles of
the Punjabi trends. Shraddha Pacheriwal, VP Design, Raisin lists some of the trends that you can sport this Lohri
Dhoti and Kurti instead of Patiala salwar
Adding a twist to the regular Patiala salwar with Kurta and Dhoti set this Lohri. You can opt for Kurta Dhoti with a classy black dhoti and high low kurta. This set guarantees to turn heads around this festive season.
Kurti with Palazzo
Trending since quite some time, the combination of kurti and palazzo is here to stay this year as well. From a fancy outing to a casual meeting, palazzos set you apart in the crowd. An amalgamation of comfort and style is what we are wanting this Lohri.
Kurti with Cigarette Pants
Minimalistic and elegant, a kurti with cigarette pants can never go out of fashion in India. For Lohri 2019, opt for pink coloured kurti paired with cream coloured floral print pants.
