5 Stars Show Us 5 New Ways To Wear Shalwars

Trends change by the month, and old classics get makeovers. There’s nothing more classic than the shalwar though. These cotton pants are part of our national dress, and you’ll find them everywhere you go. It’s as basic as a staple can get — but also extremely versatile. From at home lounge wear, to chic casual, and even formal. With the passage of time we’ve seen it adapted regionally and by designers. Patiala, ghair, and even tulip: shalwars come in all shapes and sizes. Lets have a look at how our favourite fashionistas are donning them these days.

1. Maya Ali

The gorgeous Maya Ali channelled her inner desi girl in this matching bright red shalwar kameez, paired with a white chaddar. She went for an embroidered shalwar to add a bit of flair for a dressier look.

2. Mawra Hocane

Mawra Hocane is one actress we always look to when it comes to notes on fashion and trends. She gave the classic shalwar a completely new look. She opted for a plain white cropped one, and paired it with a luminous golden shirt. Perhaps contemporary shalwars are the next big thing?
