wardrobe
Some days, getting dressed feels like a chore, and on others, it’s an instant mood-lifter. The sweet spot is when you find pieces that do the work for you, effortless silhouettes, breathable fabrics, and small thoughtful details that make you feel put together without trying too hard. That’s the energy this season’s lineup from Gulabo by Maheen Khan taps into. Think flowing cuts, vintage-inspired charm, and playful nods to desi truck art, all tied together with a sense of ease that makes these outfits perfect for everyday dressing or the occasional festive plan.
The brand’s signature mix of comfort and character shows up in delicate beadwork, lace edges, gold tassels, and soft, roomy fits that let you move freely while still looking sharp. This week, You! breaks down a few styling ideas to help you get the most out of these versatile looks…
Go for this oversized short kurta with a front-open cut to keep things breezy and elevated. Pair it with relaxed straight pants for a cool, unfussy silhouette. Add chunky silver jewellery and a top knot for a laidback glam look. Stick to minimal makeup with a bold lip. Feels like something you’d wear on a casual Friday that turns into dinner plans.
Short kalidar cuts create a flattering fit that never goes out of style. Elevate it with a beige-gold embroidered neckline that adds just enough richness. Pair with flowy pants for a relaxed yet refined outfit. Add soft curls, pearl studs, and dainty bangles. Great for tea invites or festive dinners at home.
Turn heads with a bold floral print in warm tones and delicate gold lace finishing. The neckline’s lace detailing and tassel accent instantly dress things up. Let your outfit shine by pairing with sleek lowers in a solid tone. Add nude heels and statement earrings. Perfect for late lunches and daytime wedding events.
Pick wide-leg lowers with a relaxed fit for a mix of comfort and flair. Works well with short or long kurtas depending on your mood. Style with metallic flats and stackable rings for an effortlessly styled finish. Add a lightweight scarf or dupatta for an added layer. Ideal for warm afternoons and errands in style.
Let warm-toned prints do the talking with just the right hint of shimmer from a gold-trimmed hem. Lace-lined necklines and tassel details bring in that lux feel without overdoing it. Ground the look with cigarette pants and a neat bun. Throw in mirror-work sandals and light gold eyeshade. Works beautifully for day-to-evening transitions.
Opt for this flowy silhouette with side-tie detailing and delicate beadwork to bring movement and drama to your look. Wear it with a lehenga skirt for a graceful spin on traditional wear. Add jhumkas and a gajra in your hair for an old-world festive charm. Keep your makeup soft and romantic. Ideal for twirling through mehendi nights or dholkis.
