This season we’re telling you to give your sequin-clad garments a rest and instead opt for textures that are infused with shine and style. A slick of gloss—whether that’s prominent in your clothes, your hair, your skin or your makeup—is the look you want to be aiming for this season.
While marriages might be rooted in tradition, it’s the smaller wedding festivals like the mehendi, pitti, cocktail, engagement and sangeet ceremonies that allow us to set our rules. If you’re looking to up the glam in your wedding trousseau—rumour has it that Manish Malhotra’s Winter/Festive collection is high in gloss, shimmer and mirror work. It’s time to take inspiration from the fashionable, young woman, who loves the glamour in the play of light and fabric.
High-shine and glamorously glossy will give you that clean, polished look that is apt to up your style quotient. Using gloss and texturised shimmer, won’t just keep you dazzling, it will reflect the euphoria and radiance of what dreams are made off.
And the trend doesn’t end just there! If you’re looking to add some of that magic to your everyday look—slip on a pair of basic jeans and a well fitted white tee, and pair that with a bright, tangerine, glossy pout and you’ve just bumped your look up several, high-glam notches.
When it comes to your hair, this season we’re giving those uptight up-dos a break and opting for simple, glossy tresses. There’s a certain charm with leaving your hair loose and we’re lapping up that trend by keeping it simple, romantic and super glossy.
So girlies, keep an eye out for this fabulous trend that is sure to be ruling the runways. From glossy fabrics to glossy makeup—the modern day woman is here to steer away from traditional notions of glamour and move on to the fun, flirtatious allure of gloss. Are you in?
