Mens Indian and Western Outfit With Navy Blue and Beige Combo

Without realising it, we come across Indo western menswear almost every day in our daily lives! When it comes to menswear around the Indian subcontinent, the rules are not so neatly laid as is in the case of women's wear. Menswear as we see it today, even men's ethnic wear in some cases, is a harmonious amalgamation of Indian and British fashion.

Men's fashion in India has borrowed a lot from British dressing styles and tailoring techniques. So most of the formal wear that we see today, be it ethnic or otherwise, is in fact, fusion wear as far as history is concerned.

Long ago, the unbuttoned kurta like the angarakha with tie up mechanism used to be worn my Indian men. Under this men wore dhotis – another unstitched, unbuttoned piece of clothing. But with the introduction of British fashion, concepts like that of collars, cuffs, cuts, buttons, jackets trousers etc was introduced.

These concepts were first adopted by the Indian royalty. It gave them an air of authority and confidence as at that time the British were considered the major ruling class. Such clothes also made outdoor activities like hunting etc very comfortable and convenient for the Indian princes and kings too.

This Indo western blend gave rise to outfits like Jodhpuri suits, the bandhgala kurta, waistcoat style jackets, the sherwani, the achkan jacket etc. We have discussed at length about these individual types of menswear and their origins in previous blogs. Today, we will introduce you few unique Indo western menswear ideas which can take your fashion game a step forward.

This look goes really well for a groom in functions like Sangeet or Roka Ceremony.

4. The Classic Black Achkan

Shahid Kapoor has been the chocolate boy of Bollywood for a long time. But slowly, with the release of movies like 'Kabir Singh', his image is changing.

The black and white look is enhanced by the multicolor flowers embroidered on the waistcoat! The brown leather boots also go well with the attire.

6. Indo Western in White

This particular outfit might appear to you entirely ethnic, even more so because of the flared and pleated skirt-like fall of the sherwani kurta! Yet in reality, it is a perfect example of an Indo western attire for men. Look at the collar of the jacket. In every way, this jacket has been cut and tailored using techniques that were foreign long ago! In fact, some fashion historians may also opine that the flared sherwani style is reminiscent of the skirts worn my Scottish men.

7. The Indian Coat

Ayushmann Khurrana pairs a white shirt-black trouser set with a black achkan coat– the perfect fusion style Indo western for men. The attire consists of a spotless white shirt not tucked into the black trouser, classic black leather shoes and an ethnic long jacket on top. The only element of color is the rosette pattern pocket square – another western element.

8. Off Blazer and Dhotis

Though challenging to carry, this outfit takes the concept of Indo western for men to an all new level! In this case, a double-buttoned blue Jodhpuri coat has been worn over a longer white kurta.

This style is quite common if it had been paired with trousers! But in this case, a blue silk dhoti comes in and totally changes the look. Though different and experimental, this outfit does not look weird! Due to the clever color combination, the dhoti does look out of place!

9. Fusion Rules in Indo Western
