A chikankari kurta with plazo pants is one of the most comfortable outfits you can wear. The wide leg of a plazo balances a fitted or straight kurta and keeps you cool. Here is how to put the look together.
Choose the right plazo
The straight plazo is clean and easy to wear with almost any kurta. The sharara is a flared style that adds movement for festive wear. Both are embroidered and white.
Pair it with the right kurta
- Short kurti with a straight plazo: the proportions stay balanced.
- Coloured kurta with a white plazo: white lets the colour and embroidery stand out.
Finish the look
- Add a chiffon dupatta for a festive outfit. See chiffon dupattas.
- Wear juttis or flat sandals, and small jhumkas or studs.
- For cooler days, layer a blazer or a long cardigan.
Care
Hand wash embroidered plazos in cold water, do not wring, and dry flat in the shade. See the hand wash guide.
