When the vibe is vibrant, and the air is full of the rhythmic beats of dhol, and you see the surroundings filled with the swirls of colourful ghagras, you guess it right, it's Garba..! Nine days of Navratri are devoted to nine different forms of the Goddess Durga. However, every evening is the same, i.e., the Dandiya night, aka Garba. It's a celebration of dance, devotion, and dazzling colours, compiled with the spiritual spirits in the soul and infinite energy in the feet. So if you are also a dance enthusiast and looking for Navratri outfit ideas, here we are. The right outfit is as essential as the rhythm because it must not just be great-looking but also effortless enough to serve non-stop dancing. Here at Meera's Plus Size Store, we believe every body is a Garba-ready body, just the dress needs to be checked. We have rounded up 9 incredible Navratri fashion ideas so you not only look drop-dead gorgeous but also dance in comfort through all nine nights!

Lehenga Choli for a Classic Navratri Look

There is nothing that speaks better than a beautifully embroidered lehenga for Navratri. Besides being immensely spectacular, it is timeless, traditional, and supremely versatile, and hence, an imperative choice for the dandiya nights. A long, swirling lehenga skirt topped with a well-fitting choli makes a stunning silhouette ideal for the hook step dancing of Dandiya.

• Embrace the Ethnic: Pick a lehenga set for traditional mirror or thread work for a genuine look.

• Sparkle with Sequin: Shine bright with a sequin lehenga set. The intricate work will make you shine under the Garba lights.

For a classic, glamorous look, Sitaron Ki Raat- Black Sequin Embroidered Georgette Lehenga Set is a fabulous option. Its dark base acts like a canvas to the twinkling sequins, making you shine among the celebratory crowd. This evergreen beauty ensures that the wearer stands out from the crowd and shines with subtle elegance. 

For a delicate and romantic look, the Chandani Raatien Lehenga set with its smooth silhouette and fine work, is a stunning choice that captures the essence of a classic Navratri attire.

Indo-Western Fusion Outfits for Garba Nights

If you also like to merge the two worlds, i.e., the traditional craft with a contemporary twist, Indo-Western Lehenga can be an ideal choice for you. These fashions have the best combinations: the comfort of Western styles and the festive allure of Indian art.

• Tiered Gowns: Opt for a flattering, tiered gown with classical embroidery or prints and be the showstopper of the evening.

• Modern Twist Anarkali: An Anarkali dress with a modern cut, like a cold-shoulder or an attached cape, brings a fresh take on ethnic wear.

The Regal Green Position Embroidered Anarkali With Koti is an excellent instance of a fusion attire. Here, the classic Anarkali is matched with a short, embroidered koti (jacket), which serves as a modern layer that is comfortable as well as stylish. 

The Royal Glow Tiered Dress with Embroidered Cape is another excellent fusion outfit. The tiered dress creates a contemporary, flowing silhouette, while the embroidered cape infuses a sense of ethnic sophistication, hence making it an ideal Indo-Western outfit for the Navratri event.

Mirror Work Magic: Sparkle Under the Lights

Navratri evenings are a time for light and energy, and a mirror work or sequin outfit is your best bet. The little mirrors and shiny sequins reflect the light when you turn around, casting a hypnotic spell that is just ideal for the Garba dance floor.

• Kutch Embroidery: Classic Kutch embroidery in bright colours and unique mirror work is a great option for an authentic festive ensemble.

• Sequin Embellishments: For an all-out glam look, a lehenga or Anarkali covered in sequin work will ensure you shine like a diamond.

The Ravishing Black Kutch Embroidered Anarkali is a fine example of mirror work magic. The lively Kutch embroidery on the luxurious black fabric creates a stunning and sophisticated look, making you the centre of attention in the ultimate traditional Navratri outfits.

The Rosette Royale - Rust Orange & Deep Pink Sequin Embroidered Pure Georgette Anarkali Skirt Set also provides a fabulous mix of luxurious colours and gleaming sequins, perfect for an evening of dance and celebration.

Light & Comfortable Fabrics for Non-Stop Dancing

Garba is all about spinning and shining. Therefore, the fabric of your outfit also needs to be twirling and swivelling at the same time. In order to ensure comfort and prevent sweating, you should select light weight and breathable fabrics that are further designed in a way to allow you to swing effortlessly with the beat. You can opt for:

• Georgette: It is both flowy and light in weight, also it drapes really well, and hence it is ideal for an Anarkali or lehenga skirt for the dandiya occasion. 

• Cotton: Crepe and cotton are known for providing comfort and breathability. They are perfect if you want to dance for hours without carrying any bulk.

One such example is the Rang Taal- Red & Mustard Bandhani Gota Georgette Anarkali Set, which is a comfortable yet classy outfit. The light georgette fabric, paired with the vintage Bandhani print and Gota work, provides a celebratory look that is extremely easy to dance around in. Check out the Anarkali Set here.  

Traditional Jewellery and Accessories for Navratri

Your Navratri dress ideas can go from good to great with the right accessories. They add the final touch of festive finery to your look.

• Oxidised Silver Jewellery: This is an essential element for Navratri nights. A show-stopping neck piece, along with a pair of bold earrings, or a complete statement choker set, can easily give your look a boost.

• Bangles & Kadas: Grab a bunch of colourful bangles or classic kadas in one hand and go with a smart watch in the second for a touch of contemporary classics. It brings in a lovely jingle and a splash of colours as you clap during Garba.

• Bags: A tiny embroidered potli bag or a compact clutch is ideal for such dancing events to carry all your essentials without obstructing your dance moves.

• Waist Belts: An ethnic waist belt or a kamarbandh may not just enhance your lehenga's decorum but also keep your dupatta intact.

Makeup & Hairstyle Ideas for a Colourful Night

Once you are done finding your bright and right colourful outfits for Navratri, here comes the next part, hair and makeup. It can uplist your look to the next level and keep you fresh and fabulous throughout the night.

• Makeup: Always go with an enduring and sweat-proof base for makeup. A bold eye look with a splash of colour on the tip or a dramatic eyeliner will complement your dressing for dandiya. A smudge-proof lip colour in a matte shade will hold its ground amidst all the enjoyment.

• Hairstyle: Opt for a style that holds your hair back instead of allowing them on your face. A high ponytail, a tidy bun, or a French braid are considered ideal for Garba. They are stylish and will remain intact even after dancing for hours. Adorn your bun or braid with colourful parandis or flowers to get the vibe.
