2. Bottom Wear for Women: Tulip Pants

Tulip Pants

With the change in fashion sensibilities, tulip pants are becoming more acceptable these days. Offering billowing on top, narrowed at the ankles with layers of airy fabric, tulip pants come in a range of fabrics including silk, cotton, or chiffon.

Plain tulip pants when combined with strongly printed kurta results in a fun yet an elegant appearance. Embroidered tulip pants are also quite popular among women for special occasions like weddings. They are beautified with the addition of bands and other exquisite embellishments. In case you are picking an embroidered one, we suggest you to go for simple tops/kurtas to avoid any conflict with your overall look.

To put it in other words, either the tulip pants or the kurta must be plain lest you end up creating a tactless combo.

4. Bottom Wear for Women: Shararas

Sharara

This traditional ethnic wear comprises pleated loose pants or long skirts usually worn with a kurti or a top. Talking about modern sharara designs, women prefer to wear a crop top or a choli for special occasions. Additionally, long flowing kurtas that end at the knee are also a popular substitute to the cholis.

Depending on an individual’s style preferences, a sharara can help achieve both a formal and informal look without much effort. Juttis, chappals or kolapuris add a funky look to your overall ensemble when worn with sharara suits. Offering a relaxed vibe, heels can also look great with these pants. Most women prefer to go with high heeled shoes as they beautifully compliment the grace of their outfit.

As the current trend goes, you may pair up your sharara suit with an Indian jacket to create an interesting ethnic wear.

5. Bottom Wear for Women: Palazzos

Palazzos

You may want to keep things casual or make a really chic statement. Palazzo pants come in all shapes and sizes to help you add definition to your outfit. Slightly high-waisted, palazzos flare out from knees as they move down to the legs.

Interestingly, they formed part of the uber-cool clothing worn by women in the 1960s. And when they made a comeback a few years back, palazzos instantly turned out to be a staple couture wear. No wonder they continue to be a hot favourite with many fashionistas. In line with the current trends, palazzo pants are available in many variants for casual as well as formal wear.

Wondering what to pair them up with to bring style to your Indo-western wardrobe? Well, the choices are certainly endless. You may like to pair your palazzo with a simple tee, a tank top, an off-shoulder top or even a long-sleeved shirt. Crop top is also a good choice to transform the overall vibe when paired with a trendy palazzo pant.

If you thought long, flowy kurtas don’t go well with the palazzos, here’s an eye-opener! The pair in fact makes for one of the most elegant ethnic outfits for special occasions. You may as well try ditching those leggings and opting for palazzos instead to wear a salwar suit. Catch this latest fashion trend in ethic wear and you are sure to make quite a few heads turn around.

6. Bottom Wear for Women: Culottes

Culottes

Culottes have their origins in the 18th century France. Not trousers actually, culottes are longer than most shorts. Ending at the knee, they are cut at full leg width to impart the appearance of a skirt. Culottes look cool as a casual wear. However, you can also achieve a more formal look with a tucked in top. Also, pair your favourite set of culottes with a jacket to get a more structured look.

Though we usually see taller women carrying them well, it’s a myth that culottes can’t be worn by petite women. Choosing the right style is a key here. All that is required is to go for ones that fall 2-4 inches below the knee. A fitted top not only helps you in accentuating your waist but also striking a balance between the volume of your bottoms. And if you reach out for heels, they will definitely help you elongate your legs.
