Just pick the right pieces from KALKI and follow the right tips to elevate your mix-and-match game. 

The Art of Mixing and Matching Ethnic Wear

This creativity of mix and match kurtis can steal hearts! Just dig out a heavy lehenga and pair it with a sober kurti for a balanced look. You can add versatility to the Punjabi Patiala or the dhoti pants by teaming them with a peplum or a crop top. Similarly, you can just add an embellished dupatta or jacket to your simple, straight salwar kameez. What’s more? You are ready for a head-turning entrance.

Experimenting with Salwar and Punjabi Suits

 Mix and match Punjabi salwar suits for that unexpected flair and drama. 

  • You can combine embroidered kameez with contrasting bottoms, and this juxtaposition will turn heads. 
  • Mix bright dupattas with subtle kurtas for festive flair and that pop of excitement. Go for visually bold and bright hues for the dupattas. You can also use the technique with jackets.
  • The versatility of mix-and-match of Patialas and cowl pants with crop tops, and peplums can offer you a fantastic Indo-Western appeal.

Colour, Prints & Textures: The Perfect Balance

It’s time to amplify the fun of mix-and-match salwar suits. Mix floral prints with solid pieces for an excellent and unique touch. Similarly, mix bold-toned dresses with pastel dupattas or vice versa for a balanced yet elegant appeal. Pair a satin top with a rich organza skirt for those dreamy and flirty vibes. A fluid chiffon saree in pastel can be paired with a multi-coloured printed blouse for that bold and fierce avatar.
