Celebrity Inspired Kurta Sets For This Summer

Indian summers are a package deal of humidity and a very stubborn tan. That doesn't mean you need to hang up the fashion boots! Do the Indian summer the traditional way and bring out the breezy kurta sets just like your favourite celebrities did (especially the trendsetting millennials). Janhvi Kapoor and Sara Ali Khan swear by their loose-fitted, Lucknow kurtas, and are often found in this staple ethnic attire. Pair it with colourful juttis, chunky jumkas and a contrasting dupatta, for that perfect summer look. Pro tip: Opt for kurtas in breathable fabrics like cotton, linen and mulmul to beat the scorching heat.

To get an insight into how your favourite celebrities work the kurta trend, here’s our edit of some of their best off-duty traditional looks.
