What Should You Wear When Diwali Plans Include Puja, Dinner and Photos?

Introduction

This festival is rarely accomplished in just one change of clothes. Typically, it begins with a puja at home, ends with a dinner among family members or friends and, somewhere in between, there are photographs being taken near the diyas or the rangoli. It's much easier when one wears only one outfit that lasts all the way through these activities, and Gulbhahar festive suits are designed with such wearing conditions in mind. In a nutshell, one should select one heavy festive suit instead of different outfits for each activity. One suit, which will be selected correctly, depending on its colour, material and fit, will look good both during puja and dinner and for photographs taken in the evening.

Beginning With an Appropriate Base For Puja

For Puja, it is necessary to create an environment that is warm and festive, yet not too cumbersome to sit and move in. Yellow mustards have been an appropriate colour choice for this type of attire in the past due to their festive nature, and they also capture very nicely in diya light. One such example of this base can be the Mustard Yellow Festive Suit, which has beautiful embroidery and zardozi work, which remains mostly on the yoke and the border to allow graceful movement during puja and also enough freedom to sit comfortably on the floor.

Ensuring the Outfit Stays Through Dinner

The post-puja hours are when festivities turn into long hours of sitting, eating, and chatting, when most festive outfits become either heavy or constricting. The straight cut works better than one may think. The Grey Heavy Suit for Women is perfect for this event, as the straight-cut kurta and pants ensure that all embroidery remains on the surface, with no extra fabric layers covering the waist and legs. The same luxury is provided by sequin and kora work, while the sharara or pleated silhouettes become too bulky to wear after the initial hours of festivity.

Choosing an Outfit for Photography at the End of the Day

As soon as dinner ends, photography happens almost automatically, usually near the light source or family members. The importance of colour and texture becomes greater here than that of silhouette. Warm colours usually come out better in pictures indoors than pastel or soft ones. The Orange Bridal Kurta Set will definitely do, thanks to its dense floral zardozi embroidery, which keeps looking rich under poor lighting conditions inside.

Allowing Small Styling Elements to Do the Rest of the Job

It might not be the suit itself, but the accessories and styling elements that determine whether the same dress can make sense in the context of puja, dinner and pictures. A well-placed draping of a dupatta, some jewellery, or just the right pair of juttis can alter the entire look of your outfit without even changing it. For example, Mauve Pink Bridal Kurta Set is such a flexible outfit which can easily go from minimalistic jewellery and a light draping during the puja ceremony to something more extravagant later on when it comes to dinner and pictures.

Choosing a Suit That Can Take You Through the Entire Day

In case you wish to spare yourself from overthinking the whole process of dressing, you should look for something that looks neither too festive nor too casual at the beginning of the day. It can be the Sage Green Festive Suit, which looks just right at that point in time. It is embroidered in such a way as to take great pictures and looks not so festive that you may consider it as being overdressed.

Dressing in One Suit Throughout the Entire Day

One way of looking at a Diwali day full of puja, food, and photographs would be to see all of them as completely different events and therefore requiring three totally different dresses. Rather than this approach, one can just go ahead and wear one suit which complements the puja, fits well and can hold up well in all kinds of lighting. Many such versatile festive suits are available in the Gulbhahar range of Collections, thereby allowing you to use the same suit from the beginning of the puja to the very end.
