Having Ali Fazal as the showstopper gave the showcase a familiar face, but the clothes had their own story to tell.
Dinner jackets, Indo-Western outfits and updated takes on classic Indian wear have become part of the conversation, especially for celebrations that stretch across several days. The collection was built around a simple idea: Indian menswear can hold on to its roots while still feeling current. Not every groom wants an elaborate sherwani, and not every wedding event calls for the same kind of outfit. Tasva explored that shift through a mix of contemporary sherwanis, dinner jackets and Indo-Western looks. The appeal lies in having options. A groom might want something traditional for the wedding ceremony but prefer a tailored jacket for the cocktail night. Others may want an outfit that combines elements of both. The collection offered a little of everything, without moving too far away from the craftsmanship that makes Indian occasionwear distinctive.(PTI Photo/Rushikesh More)(PTI10_16_2026_000072B) Tarun Tahiliani drew inspiration from Indian art and design, including the Tree of Life, Lipan Art, paisleys and the Art of Light. These influences showed up in the embroidery and surface detailing, with techniques such as Aari work, Zardozi and mirror work adding texture to the outfits. There’s a lot that goes into making traditional menswear stand out, and often, it’s the smaller details that make an outfit memorable. The embroidery, the placement of a motif or the way a jacket is cut can change the entire look. Here, the traditional elements were paired with more contemporary silhouettes, giving the pieces a balance between heritage and modern dressing. The result was a collection that drew from India’s rich design traditions without making every outfit feel overly formal or heavy.(PTI Photo/Rushikesh More)(PTI10_16_2026_000071B) Wedding fashion has changed quite a bit over the years, and men have more choices than ever. The sherwani remains a favourite, but it’s no longer the only option for someone planning a wedding wardrobe. Tasva’s latest collection tapped into that variety. Ali Fazal’s appearance as the showstopper brought the showcase to a close, putting the focus back on a familiar question for anyone planning a wedding outfit: how do you wear something traditional while still making it feel like you? For Tasva by Tarun Tahiliani, the answer was to keep the craftsmanship, rethink the silhouettes and give Indian menswear room to evolve. (PTI Photo/Rushikesh More)(PTI10_16_2026_000074B)
It offered traditional details for those who love Indian craftsmanship, alongside silhouettes that feel more in tune with how men dress today.
