What to wear on Holi Festival – Outfit inspirations from Craftsvilla Online Store
Holi Festival is round the corner and amongst all the festivals celebrated in India, this one the most vibrant, most colourful and most joyous festival. The only mention of the word “Holi” brings smile on our face and a nostalgic euphoria in our hearts. Holi is essentially signifies Victory of Good over Evil and being celebrated on the onset of spring season in India, it manages to catapult to the most vastly celebrated festival in India. The most striking thing about Holi festival is the aura of vibrancy it has and nothing better to channelize the vibrancy into some amazing fashionable outfits for the festive season. Its important to choose an outfit that is comfortable, stylish and yet lets you enjoy the “festival of colours” to your fullest.
So, I thought of writing a post on some of my Holi special Outfit inspirations in collaboration with Craftsvilla Online store which is running a Holi special Discount all over the site with some stunning outfits, both ethnic & Indo-western ones. There are a range of outfits for people of all ages whether you want to rock your holi party or just hang out with friends or look stunning for the Holi festival Pooja. They also have a fabulous collection of tribal and ethnic jewellery on their store! (I am particularly in love with their tribal gladiator sandals! #onmywishlist) Coming back to the topic, here is a round up of Holi festival fashion outfits.
Go all White
An all white look is synonymous with Holi festival, not only because its a pure & Pious colour, but also because its great for playing Holi! At the end of the day you will have a riot of colours on your plain kurta, that you can keep as a keepsake of all the memories and fun you had during the day. Be it for the morning Aarti or the holi game, White is something that never goes wrong for Holi!

Plain white kurta for Holi
Deck up in a plain white Salwar kameez, keeping the make-up minimal and a red pout, somehow this outfit inspiration gives me some major Kareena Kapoor vibes!

Plain white Kurta
Grab a plain white Kurta and pair it with your denims or trousers and enjoy the Holi vibe the Plain Jane way!

Trendy Kurta Pallazzo
Get trendy with this Kurta Pallazzo look, put on your favourite pair of aviators and rock the Desi Diva look.

Casual top & Jeans
Get casual in this no-brainer look to enjoy the holi to the fullest. While you are at it, you can also chuck the jeans and go ahead with a nice pair of shorts, that will dry easily and also look chic.
Multicoloured Holi
Stick to the theme of the festival and don a multicolour outfit. One, it would be fun and vibrant to wear, great for beautiful photographs and if you are one of those ppl who wouldn’t like to show off holi colours, it will easily camouflage it and won’t make you look “Holi Horrible” (yea that’s exactly what I become after an hour of colour play with my friends!)

Multicoloured tunic & Pallazzo
Be the centre of attraction with this Multicolour Tunic. The USP of this outfit would be that you can wear it for the rest of your summer days as well (If it has managed to resist the Holi effect though!)

Digital print Tunic
Pick this cute digital printed tunic dress for your Holi fun party!

Funky Tunics
Indo-western Holi Look
I personally like to experiment with my look for Holi festival and an Indo-western look is perfect for that edgy effect without compromising on the comfort while being in sync with those festival vibes. I always prefer to get a tunic over shorts or a dhoti pants kurta look compared to a simple salwar kurta.

Edgy Indo-western
If your heading for a Holi party at your Office, you might want to skip the routine and try out this dhoti Kurta combination. Its a power-packed outfit in itself and yet so comfortable.

Chic overlap dress
This chic overlap tunic is perfect combination of Indian sensibilities with the western silhouette. Great for a Holi after-party or your college Holifest!

Ethnic Kurta
Be comfortable in this Ethnic kurta paired with a bright orange skirt! Cute & Adorable right?
Bohemian for Holi
Tribal or Bohemian look is totally a Summer special. Pair it up with some stunning accessories and you are ready for your festive Boho look this Holi festival. The reason Holi festival is so in sync with Bohemian style is because it is liberating and it lets you be who you are!

Asymmetric Top
Get grooving in this asymmetric boho top & dance to your favourite Holi numbers.

Multicolour aztec print tunic
I call Holi festival “the Coachella of India”, with all the peppy music all around and so much of zest. Channelize your inner diva with this aztec printed tunic for your Holi Dance party!
Dressy in Black
Just like White, Black is also a great option for the Holi festival. Opt for a Black outfit if you do not want to get your favorite white kurta soiled with colours. You can also get all glamorous in Black for a Holi festival Party!

Black Anarkali
Get all decked up in this Black Anarkali for the festivities
Go Ethnic with Mirror & Tie-Dye
Festivals are a great way to go all out ethnic and flaunt the traditional handicrafts. They are so unique, they have a festive feel and very colourfull. Get yourself a mirror-work tunic or a Tye-Die Kurta this Holi for the ethnic festive look.

Mirror work kurta
This bright and colourfull mirror-work patiyala suit is sure to prep up your Holi spirits with its vibrance.

Tie Dye Kurta
Bring in your Holi with this beautiful Tie-Dye Kurta, its comfortable, traditional and yet so lively.

This ethnic kurta with all its beautiful geometric handcrafted embroidery is my favourite Holi outfit so far!
A Saree for Holi
No festival is complete a beautiful Saree. In fact we always look forward to festivals to take out our favourite sarees and get all decked up in our traditional best. Best part is that a Saree is for all ages and every occasion. Be it your Holi water party or pooja or a casual day out with family, a Saree will never let you down.

Bandhani saree
Don a vibrant Bandhani saree for the festive outing with your family and friends and witness all the eyes turn to you.

Georgette Saree
Fan of Bollywood? What better than a georgette saree to dance on those famous Bollywood Holi numbers? Don’t forget the rain dance. 😉

Leheriya multicoloured saree
If you are from Gujarat, none of our festivities are complete without a bright coloured bandhani or Leheriya saree. Period!

I somehow adore this chic mulitcolour saree and can visualize myself in it for the Holi festival Kitty parties & Card parties.
