Ideas for Rakhi Outfits 2022

Indo Western for a Fusion Look

Rakhi is always an exciting time for all fashionistas, as you can experiment with new looks! Indo western is a great choice for this day. You can try absolutely anything under the sun: peplum tops, maxi dresses, drape saree, co-ord sets. All of these can have an indo-western touch and can be styled perfectly for Rakhi. Make sure whatever you choose is comfortable and some Indo western drapes tend to constrict your movement. Pick bright colours and semi-formal outfits as normally Rakhi is celebrated at home during the daytime. You can either get readymade outfits or get your local boutique to stitch you one. The important thing is to have a concept in mind and know exactly what you want to sport.

Printed, lightweight Sarees are Great for the Festivities

Printed sarees can be another great Rakhi outfit. These are totally in trend lately and can either be proper sarees or semi-stitched ones that you can easily drape yourself. Printed sarees look great for day functions and are lightweight so you can easily carry them all day. You can get a saree in a really cool, funky print, a floral print, or something muted and minimalistic. To add that glam factor, pair your saree with oxidized or silver jewelry. Try experimenting with jacket blouses, puffed sleeves, pant saree, and even western crop tops. This will help you complete your look and make a style statement. You can also play around with the look by adding a belt, trying different draping styles, or wearing your saree with a fusion blouse. 

A Three Piece Co-ord Set

Co-ord sets are great for summers, they’re great for festivities and they’re great if you want to try a fusion look. So yes, a three-piece co-ord set can totally make you look like a diva and can help you effortlessly make a statement. A crop top, pants, and a jacket are the perfect combination for a semi formal look. You can opt for printed fabrics, embroidered outfits, or even simple solid materials, either way, you’ll be looking fabulous in this outfit.

Try and do a matching set for a more put together, coordinated look. And for an experimental look, you can try to mix and match contrasting colors as well. Make sure the fitting is perfect, especially the pants as this outfit calls for a lot of attention around the torso area. Pair it up with golden, minimalistic jewelry and a pair of heels and you’re all set for the day!

Nothing Better Than a Classic Indian Suit

There are absolutely no questions about this one. An Indian suit is a classic Rakhi outfit. You probably already have one in your collection that you love. Or you can even borrow your mom’s. The choices with this one are really endless, but we’d suggest a pastel color palette and a printed or lightly embroidered suit for Rakhi. Since it’s majorly a day event and in the middle of peak summers, going with a lightweight and soft colored suit is probably the best choice. You can pair matching jewelry with it and for a complete desi girl look, add a bindi and do kohl rimmed eyes. Keep your hair open or add some fresh flowers for a full on Bollywood diva look.

A Pant Suit for a Contemporary Look

If you really want to make a statement and choose an outfit like no one else, grab yourself a pair of pant suits. Printed pant suits in Indian fabrics are a major fashion trend these days, and you too can look gorgeous in one of these. Again, with pant suits too, you can opt for floral prints, Madhubani prints, block prints, etc. You can wear a camisole or a body suit to layer with your jacket. Style them with layered neck chains, hoop earrings, or stacks of bracelets to complete the look. Opt for a minimalist makeup look with muted eyes and nude lips and let your outfit do the talking. Pair this with wedge heels or block heels and you’ll look like a diva on Rakhi. Make sure the fabric you choose is breathable and summer friendly for a comfortable look.

Indo Western Full Length Dresses

When it comes to Indo western Rakhi outfits idea, the list can really be endless. One of the most fashionable, trendy choices will be an Indo western dress. These can be ankle length or full length depending on your choice and taste. The ethnic element in these dresses can be the print or the drape. To accentuate your waist, you can also add a belt. Style these dresses with silver or gold minimalistic jewelry and a pair of juttis for that perfect Indo western look. To set your look apart, you can wear a sleeveless or tube dress and layer it with a long, flared jacket. 

Peplum Top with Straight Pants

Another indo-western look that is a favorite among fashionistas, a peplum top is all the glamour you need to make a fashion statement. This classy ensemble can be sported by almost anyone, but it does especially suit women with an hourglass figure. You can style your peplum tops with pants, shararas, gararas, and even skirts. Add accessories like a statement neckpiece or statement earring to steal the show. If you want a semi-formal outfit, you can opt for solid colors or printed fabrics. And if you wear heavier rakhi outfits, you can go for something embroidered. Make sure the fitting of the outfit is perfect because a peplum top attracts attention to your curves and will definitely look awkward if the fitting is off.
