Élan’s recent edit of wardrobe essentials focuses solely on solids that exude elegance and charm in a muted fashion. Though the colours are dominantly subtle and understated, do not take Élan Vital for an inconspicuous assortment which will not turn heads. With monochrome, beige and purple used as a palette, the kurtas stand out with intricate detailing. You can spot laces, tassels, exquisite trimmings, embroidery, pleats and what not!
The best part about this capsule is that each kurta can have more than one outing so you won’t feel guilty of splurging. These are versatile pieces that are more classic designs than trend-led and hence can be worn throughout the year. Accessorized carefully, it will never feel like the same old look. Élan has incorporated several styling techniques as well to help you match the right accessories to conjure up the magic!
Monochromatic Magic
We are again back to timeless contrasts of black and white. ‘Ivory Maze’ is a classic white kurta with a trefoil patterned base with chevron embroidery and tassel details. Featuring chevron hemlines, this shirt can be paired with a colourful silk scarf or dupatta to amp up the look. Cast a monochromatic spell with this chic black kurta. ‘Dark Web’ has a rough organza trim with lace details. The kurta can easily be taken from day to night look!
Burst of Beige
Who says beige is boring? Élan has reinvented the serene shade by fusing it with plum. Get your hands on a classic button down shirt – ‘Potpourri’ – in neutral beige with aubergine botanical embroidery. Spice it up by cinching your waist with a purple belt or wear beaded necklaces.
You can also opt for a hint of flora and fauna by donning ‘Flora Botanica’. The shirt has a creamy shade which makes it a lovely canvas for rose pink floral embroideries. Floral buttons and scattered pearls add a touch of luxe to this stylish kurta.
If you want to see how beige can be transformed into an out-and-out striking number then check ‘Grapevine’ rendered in a lovely shade of red sandstone. It has pleating and scalloping all over with grape vine embroidery. The fringe details on its sleeves are the highlight of the kurta which is ideal for daytime parties or luncheons.
Purple Pleasure
This bright and pleasant colour will lift up your spirits instantly. ‘Purple Haze’ has a heavily trimmed and pleated front panel which is accentuated with laces and loops. The diagonally placed laces and pleats on its sleeves along with chevron design at the front make the kurta a show-stealer.
