With the festive season of Eid al-Fitr, we are going to miss the customary dazzling fashion moments from the tinsel townies this year. While those larger than life bashes boasted of delicacies, music and bonhomie, we love us some strong ethnic goals brought to the fore with the ubiquitous festive favourite - the sharara. A three-piece suit featuring a kurta, pants and dupatta, the sharara adorned with intricate embroideries, stone, sequins, beads work along with other ornamentations had become a wardrobe festive staple with recent times. With prolific and upcoming designers giving this traditional ensemble a worthy update with every fashion season, the sharara closely overlaps with the gharara. While the pants of a gharara suit are usually joined above the knee, this differentiates it from the sharara. Sharara and gharara suits are a common attire for Muslim women across the globe usually worn at ceremonial occasions such weddings and festivals. With a plethora of options to chose from, with respect to the heavy embroideries and embellishments to sublime embroideries in varied colour palettes and fabrics including georgette, chiffon, organza silk, art silk, chanderi, cotton, the sharara gharara ethnic vibe is infectious and how! What better than to take a peek into the fashion fabulosity of our beloved Bollywood beauties. The Bollywood brigade teamed up with their fashion stylists, upped the glamour quotient, sashayed in their designer best shararas and ghararas, giving us some serious festive fashion goals.

While we perennially seek style inspirations from these oh-so-fashionable divas in a bid to be in sync with our beloved stars, we went deep diving to scour for the best celebrity sharara-gharara vibe. Here’s how they raked in the perfect festive vibes.
