Take inspiration from celebrity festive menswear looks this wedding season, featuring Aparshakti Khurana’s vibrant bandhgala, Vicky Kaushal’s velvet kurta, Rishab Rikhiram Sharma’s regal Banarsi silk ensemble, and Siddhant Chaturvedi’s textured monotone kurta. Whether you prefer bold prints or understated elegance, these styles offer something for every groomsman or wedding attendee.
The festive season is officially over, and the wedding season now is upon us. And if you are a groomsman-to-be (or even a wedding attendee) who likes to put their best fashion foot forward, there’s a good chance that you have started planning your looks well in advance. And while we saw a bunch of cool menswear looks on the runways recently, the plethora of Diwali looks that we saw last week offer some great inspiration. Here are our picks for the celebrity festive looks to bookmark as a groomsman this wedding season!
When one thinks of chic bandhgalas, what comes to mind is classic monotone looks in shades like black, navy, ivory, or brown—with some embroidery, if we’re feeling a little extra. However, this super chic bandhgala on Aparshakti Khurana makes a strong case for colorful ones with prints and patterns.
With the winter season just round the corner, Vicky Kaushal was seen serving some velvet kurta inspiration recently. He opted for a deep blue, embroidered velvet kurta from Rohit Gandhi & Rahul Khanna, paired with relaxed black pants, black dress shoes, and a pair of rimless glasses. It’s simple, effortless, yet very festive.
This Amit Aggarwal look on Rishab Rikhiram Sharma looks regal, poised, and super stylish. Made out of pre-loved Banarsi silk, the kurta is paired with matching wide-legged pants, a cummerbund, and a sheer overlay. Styled with a multi-layered pendant necklace and massive brooch, the look is the epitome of royalty. Grooms-to-be, bookmark this one for your sufi night.
This Ashay look on Siddhant Chaturvedi goes to show that monotone can be made interesting too, and you don’t even need embroidery to do that. This beautiful black kurta has texture all over it, which lends it the edge. Additionally, the front-slit silhouette of the kurta and the baggy pants make the look even cooler. Men, take notes.
If you are someone who comes from the more-is-more-school-of-style, you might want to take a look at this Manish Malhotra look on Karan Johar. With dramatic draped pants, man cleavage, cummerbund, exquisite embroidery and lots of jewellery, this look on Karan is a maximalist’s dream.
