Men’s Garba Outfit Ideas: Trendy Kurta & Fusion Styles for Navratri

There are few things better than to spend your Navratri nights in colorful Garba and dandiya dance, and while women have many lehenga and chaniya choili options for Garba, men, too have stylish Kurta options that can make a splash and are a comfortable way to celebrate tradition. Whether simple, embroidered, or fusion, the right outfit can strike a balance between energy and Garba style.

Here are some outfit suggestions to keep men stylish as they dance the nights away at Navratri. 

1. Classic Brown Embroidered Kurta for an Earthy Vibe Earthy tones are truly back in style for festive occasions. The brown embroidered kurta is perfect for understated elegance while keeping things light enough to move in for dancing. Pairing it with beige trousers or churidars and mojris gives a great grounded but festive look.  Example: A brown chikankari embroidered kurta set looks great with cream bottoms. You can even wear a dupatta for a more ethnic look.

 

2. Wine-Colored Kurta with Phulkari Detailing Garba nights are all about vibrancy and a wine-colored kurta with floral phulkari embroidery does just that. This color will stand out amongst the colorful dandiya outfits, and the sequins will glimmer in the evening lights.  Example: A wine-colored embroidered kurta set captures tradition and glam for evening Garba sessions.

 

3. Navy Blue Kurta with Subtle Embroidery If you like the deeper shades, navy blue is timeless in the form of kurta set with motif embroidery. Blue provides depth while still being neutral enough to wear with multiple accessories. It pairs excellently with white churidar bottoms, and even slim-fit/skinny trousers for a fusion feel.  Example: A navy embroidered kurta set will keep things sophisticated without distracting you from your dancing.

 

4. Yellow Cotton Blend Kurta for Daytime Garba  When it comes to daytime Navratri gatherings, lighter shades are preferable. A light yellow printed cotton blend kurta set offers elements of comfort, breathability, and cheerful festive vibes. Cotton will allow you to freely move around comfortably as well, considering you will be dancing for long periods of time.  Example: A light yellow printed kurta paired with brown sandals makes for a refreshing daytime Garba ensemble.

 

5. Beige Zari-Embroidery Kurta for a Royal Vibe   If there’s anything that says festive royalty, it is zari embroidery. A beige kurta with zari embroidery delivers a sense of understated elegance and an air of richness. This combination makes it perfect for those big sangeet nights or Garba nights where you want to make a statement. Complement with the right golden juttis for the perfect ethnic pop. Example: A beige kurta set with zari embroidery can be elevated even further with a stole.

 

6. Party-Ready Navy Zari Kurta Pajama If you are someone who likes to wear bold outfits, a navy blue zari-work kurta pajama is a great look for you. Zari on its own elevates the outfit, making it ideal for extravagant Garba nights or in case you have a themed Navratri party. Example: A navy blue zari kurta set pairs very well with metallic accessories like a watch or bracelet.

 

7. Coral Pink Chikankari Kurta for Something Differen Pink is not only for women — men's ethnic fashion has made it a statement. A coral pink chikankari threadwork kurta set will help you bring something fresh, fun, and confidence. The kurta execs are light enough to dance but different enough to stand out. Example: A coral pink chikankari kurta with white trousers is a contemporary, yet traditional Garba look.
