There’s something timeless about traditional wear, the way it carries stories, artistry and an elegance that never goes out of style. But today’s woman carries tradition with a modern twist. With pieces like these from Narjis by Sualeha, it’s all about balance. Soft pastels meet modern tailoring, classic embroideries find fresh silhouettes. Adding these outfits to your wardrobe means embracing versatility. Style lighter tones with pearls and glowing makeup for intimate brunches or dholkis and let richer hues stand out at evening events with bold jewellery and sleek heels. This week You! shares how to style these fresh looks with style…
Cascading curls and crystal drop earrings bring in full evening glam. The makeup is luminous, think glowy skin, soft contour and peachy lips paired with metallic lids and fluttery lashes. Finish with silver heels and this look will shine at dinners or receptions.
Crafted in a rich teal tone, this ensemble blends structure with softness. The lawn and cotton net shirt is embroidered with floral thread work in rose and sage hues, running down the centre panel and across the sleeves and borders. Scalloped edges and intricate pattern detailing lend depth to the design. Paired with wide trousers and a flowy organza dupatta featuring criss-cross thread work, this look is ideal for when you want tradition to meet effortless edge.
A soft organza dream in pistachio green, this three-piece is delicately embroidered with pastel pink and ivory florals, accented with subtle sequins for just a hint of shimmer. The straight-cut shirt features intricate lace detailing and pearl tassels that fall effortlessly from the neckline. Matching scalloped trousers keep the silhouette sleek and light, while the organza dupatta, dotted with tiny bootis and finished with a dainty lace border.
Side-swept old-Hollywood waves bring a vintage softness to this look. Statement jade choker and dainty earrings strike a balance. Kohl-lined eyes and brushed-up brows add definition, while the soft pink lip keeps things feminine. A luminous base seals this as your go-to for daytime dawats or soirées.
Classic side-swept ponytail gives this look an old-school elegance. A soft nude-rose lip, subtle shimmer on the lids and clean brows create a polished yet understated feel. For jewellery, just a pair of classic chaandbalis, delicate and intentional.
A brick red hue meets classic tradition in this festive-ready outfit. The straight shirt is adorned with intricate tilla and thread embroidery in gold and muted pastels with butterfly and floral motifs. Light bead tassels finish the sleeves, while the border carries printed accents and subtle sitara highlights. Paired with gota-detailed flared trousers and a chiffon dupatta echoing the same embroidery. This one’s timeless with just the right amount of drama.
