The Modern Man’s Guide to Kurta Styling

The Modern Man’s Guide to Kurta Styling

 

Once reserved for festivals and rituals, the kurta has evolved into one of the most versatile staples in a man’s wardrobe. Today, it effortlessly blends comfort, tradition, and contemporary design. At Midav, we craft premium men’s kurtas that merge heritage-inspired aesthetics with modern cuts and fabrics — perfect for both special occasions and everyday wear.

Why the Kurta is Back in Style

For decades, the kurta was synonymous with weddings, pujas, and cultural gatherings. But in recent years, the trend has shifted:

  • Comfort: Lightweight, breathable fabrics make kurtas ideal for India’s climate.

  • Versatility: A kurta can be styled for both formal and casual looks.

  • Cultural Pride: More men are embracing Indian attire as a style statement, not just tradition.

This revival has turned the kurta into a must-have garment, worn everywhere from office parties to weekend brunches.

Occasion-Based Styling: One Kurta, Many Looks

1. Festive Looks

For weddings, Diwali, Eid, or Navratri, go for rich colors like maroon, navy, or emerald green. Pair your kurta with churidar or pajama bottoms, add a silk stole or a Nehru jacket, and finish with traditional footwear like juttis or mojaris.

2. Office-Ready Kurtas

Create an image of a man wearing a kurta in the office workplace, and background is like modern office.
Short kurtas or minimal embroidered designs in subtle shades like beige, grey, or muted blues can easily double as office wear. Combine them with slim-fit trousers or chinos for a polished yet comfortable look.

3. Casual Fits
Weekend brunch, movie night, or casual outings? Opt for lightweight cotton kurtas in pastel shades or prints. Pair with jeans or linen pants and loafers or sneakers for a fusion look.

Mix & Match Tips: Style Your Kurta Like a Pro

The beauty of a kurta lies in its adaptability. Here’s how you can make yours stand out:

  • With Denims: Pair a solid-color kurta with dark jeans for a smart-casual vibe.

  • With Trousers: For semi-formal settings, team your kurta with well-fitted trousers and slip-ons.

  • With Accessories: Elevate your kurta with a leather watch, pocket square, or minimal jewelry.

  • Layering: Add a Nehru jacket or waistcoat to instantly dress up your kurta for events.

These easy styling ideas ensure you get maximum wear out of each piece in your wardrobe.
