After fasting for the entire Ramadan period, it’s time for festivities. Eid is one festival that brings families and communities together. You are expected to attend numerous festive parties, dinners and lunches even after the big day, and it’s obvious that you need the best outfits. Selected stores in the UK, such as Libas e Jamila Women’s Clothing Shop, have a whole collection of Eid clothes that are worth a check. This is where the question comes – What should you wear for Eid? In this easy guide, we bring some of the best styles for your closet.
- Try an embroidered salwar suit
Also called the shalwar kameez, a salwar suit is the traditional Eid favorite. It is an ethnic suit that has three components – A kameez (top), salwar (pants), and a dupatta (scarf/stole). If you are new to Asian clothing and want to try something that’s basic, appealing and likeable, this is the one to go for. Keep in mind that salwar suits come in all sorts of styles, but for Eid, you need something that’s more eye-catching. Go for embroidered designs for the best looks.
- Don’t miss the saree
Talk of offbeat choices for Eid, and you have the classic Indian saree, which is also equally popular in Pakistan. While most women would rather wear a salwar suit, you can choose to wear the saree dress. Draping a saree is often the hardest part, but you can find numerous tutorials for that. Heavy-design and silk sarees are worth a check for this year and beyond, and this is one outfit that works for almost every cultural occasion or event.
- Check for sharara sets
Sharara is kind of a fusion outfit, matching the grace of a ghagra with salwar. It is a pair of pants that has a flare like the traditional skirt called the ghagra. Sharara suits come with a short kurta and a nice dupatta, and you can choose between the styles based on how rich or textured look you prefer. Sharara is easily one of the best Eid dresses, and it can be saved for special events like weddings too.
If you want to get the best deals in Eid outfits, check online stores that have a wide range of dresses and sarees, ready to be shipped. For readymade or semi-stitched outfits, do check the sizing details and make sure to select the right brand.
