Confused about what to wear this Diwali? An outfit inspired by the Duchess of Cambridge is apt for the plans you might have this season. “Britain’s royals are known for their fashion sense. And Kate stole hearts with an elegant wardrobe that goes in tandem with her carefree spirit when the couple visited India in 2016. In Pakistan, she set new rules for desi outfits,” says stylist Anjali Sharma. Here’s how to pull off four looks.

Shiny anarkali

• The green anarkali has a fitted waistline, and is suitable for all body types. If you’re petite, it will accentuate your curves, which is where the belt comes in handy.
• Its structured shoulders and long sleeves give it an edge over other anarkalis.
• As it’s sequinned with a crystal-embellished crew neckline, it’s too flashy to be worn at home while you’re making rangoli and also cumbersome during the puja. But this is ideal for parties or an evening out.
• Pair this with a tulle dupatta and heels. Go easy on the make-up, though you can go for glitter eyes in a dark green colour.
