Mumbai-based prominent fashion designer, A D Singh is famous for his opulent ethnic wear collections and this year he is all set to give you exactly what you need to shake your leg on the dance floor.
Designers have come up with more practical and comfortable styles this year to help the fashionista to get along with all the energetic dance moves set for dandiya nights.
Since Navratri means a lot of dancing and enjoyment, women should go for silhouettes which are comfortable, whilst maintaining nice and snug in the appropriate areas.
As per A D Singh,
“Skirts with extra flare and kalis teamed with dainty blouses or backless numbers make for killer appeal.”
This year, you can go for shades that may go against the festive season but never against the mood – the color palette of champagne teamed with emerald green and all silver blouses will surely look smashing.
