Because of a familiar straight-cut kurta, matching hipsters and a traditional dupatta, however, it is understandable that styling can sometimes get a bit boring. A white kurta set has something truly classic about it. It has the easy sophistication of traditional Indian clothing, and it also offers the flexibility that makes it a current favourite year-round.
For instance, if you wear large earrings, you can go easy on the neck, and if you are wearing a simple round-neck kurta, then a layered neckpiece can add the oomph factor.

The trick to making a white kurta set unique is looking beyond the outfit itself. A statement necklace, a distinctive contrasting colour, a stylishly draped dupatta, or a pair of trendy shoes can help you bring a new spirit to the outfit. Let’s decode one look at a time. The pairing of white and silver is a magical combination. If your kurta has beautiful embroidery or minimal design, you can enhance your look by wearing oxidized silver jewellery. You can wear tribal ornaments like thick necklaces, comfortable jhumkas, layered bracelets, and wrists adorned with traditional kadha bangles. You may also explore silver neckpieces inspired by temples. You just have to make sure that there is one piece of jewellery that stands out when you wear them. Instead of a plain white dupatta, you can substitute it with brightly coloured dupattas such as the Phulkari, Bandhani, leheriya, Ajrakh prints, Banaras silk, or luxurious velvet dupattas. It will automatically add zest to the outfit, especially in combination with colors like vermilion, fuchsia, emerald green, cobalt blue, or mustard yellow. Textures can also be played around with. For instance, a cotton kurta looks great with a silk dupatta. Alternatively, a heavily embroidered dupatta can give an ordinary outfit an interesting look.

It gives shape to relaxed silhouettes and provides a contemporary look to traditional ethnic attire. You can play around with a slim belt made of metal, a kamarbandh, a fabric belt, as well as an embroidered waist belt. For a dramatic effect, layer a belt over a long straight kurta and let the fabric drape around it. This trick works especially well for Anarkali-inspired kurtas and longer A-line and flowy cotton or silk sets.

A statement jacket can create structure, color, and layering effects without making your outfit look overdone. A short embroidered jacket, a sleeveless Nehru jacket, or long ethnic overlays make for some good layering options. Handwoven jackets with mirror work, kantha embroidery, block prints, or exquisite embroidery can also provide a new regional touch. Earthy shades of rust, indigo, olive green, and dark brown make for a good understated choice. Jewel colors and metallic colors are also very eye-catching for festive occasions.

With a white kurta set, you have every chance to experiment with accessories that would not otherwise go with something more elaborate. An outfit becomes fashionable with layers of necklaces, pearl chokers, brightly coloured beads, ear cuffs, and bold rings. Depending on the occasion, you can also choose a rigid handbag, a potli bag, a bright sling bag, or a metal clutch. If you want a modern Indian look, combine traditional accessories with contemporary ones. You may wear a pearl necklace with silver bracelets and a heritage necklace with a structured handbag.
