In this age of globally-savvy fashion, it is inevitable for the lines between classic and contemporary to blur. The fusion of east and west has become a coveted style statement — such as Indo-western jumpsuits rendered in Indian textile and craftsmanship. What better than a beautifully embroidered one-piece to let your spirit run free while you tap into your cultural roots? Undeniably chic and fuss-free, the column silhouette follows the call to action of effortless styling for upcoming intimate celebrations.

Aashni + Co champions the trend to take the weight off the festive season’s dress codes. To get a breather from heavy ensembles that weigh you down, here’s how you can fit Indo-western jumpsuits into new celebratory norms.

From being a functional piece of clothing to being declared as the ‘ballgown of the next century’ by American designer Geoffrey Beene in the 80s, jumpsuits have been a modern closet staple for long. Now that you’re jumping onto the bandwagon of Indo-western jumpsuits, Ridhima Bhasin‘s drapes will make you look a cut above the rest at the sangeet-cum-cocktail party. All you need is a polki choker to punctuate the look.

Beyond the splendour of traditional wear, experimenting with an offbeat fusion jumpsuit is the easiest way to crack your wedding season #OOTD. Besides, an exotic wedding destination gives you the license to choose an unconventional style. With a corset bodice and frothy ruffled sleeves, this Pink Peacock Couture creation promises a red carpet vibe for the reception. The high slits and exaggerated sleeve by Jyoti Sachdev Iyer is another limelight-friendly look that can be reserved for a sundowner mehendi.
