Light fabrics, a bright feel, and an effortless styling – the wrap-style kurtas lend a beautiful look. Complementing the Indo-Western look with its subtle style and tie-up knot for detailing, a cotton wrap kurta with ikkat prints on it is a treasure. It can bring about a fun yet comfortable look on bright summer days. Pair it up with a free-flowing palazzo for a statement look. With minimal styling, this is the perfect addition to your summer collection.

Celebrate a working day in style with an effortlessly chic kurta that is subtle yet impactful. Standing out from the cuts and slits, this frock style gives space for air to pass while keeping it light on the skin. The subtle details on the kurta bring out a sense of glamour. The best part about it is that you can pair it up with a short palazzo and wear a sneaker to keep it quirky. For a little laidback style, go for the regular sandals and leggings.

Ethnic kurta sets

There is no denying that Indian ethnic wear can define your personality with an edge. And if you are into ethnic styling, going for the basic side slit kurta with matching pants and contrasting dupatta can be your perfect choice. Sweat absorbing, airy, and stylish, these bring utter comfort, making them a must pick for a long day at work or when you are travelling extensively. With some embroidered flowers and detailing on the neck, they make the whole look stand out. 

Indo-western slit kurta!

You don’t need to go overboard with designs to upgrade a dull day. A simple bright yellow kurta with some asymmetric cuts can define your personality. Go for cotton or silk kurtas that are breathable and dry up quickly. They give the comfort of free styling and enough space to keep it light for the hot temperatures. Choose a contrast palazzo or leggings to add some details. Tip: Some bright jewellery to go with the look takes the style quotient up a few notches.

The essence of ethnicity and comfort of breathable fabrics come best with kurtas. For summer days, these can become your ultimate style statement, keeping you relaxed and sweat free!
