Modest Festive Wear Ideas

Modest festive wear is about covering comfortably while still looking celebratory. Embroidery, colour and a good fabric do the work, so you never need to sacrifice style.

What to look for

• Full or three-quarter sleeves.
• A neckline that sits close to the collarbone.
• A kameez that reaches at least to the knee, or a long maxi.

Silhouettes

Long maxis, Anarkalis and straight kameez with trousers are naturally modest. See our long chiffon maxis and Anarkali dresses.

Fabrics

Chiffon layered over a lining is light but opaque. Raw silk and organza add structure. Check the product details for the lining and fabric.

The dupatta

A full-size dupatta can be draped over the head or shoulders. See our guide on styling a dupatta.

Colour and embroidery

Rich colours and tonal embroidery feel elegant without being busy.
