Is it already your cocktail night? In the middle of all the music, glitters, and shine you will want to look fantastic and stand out. Well, a lehenga is the most popular choice of outfit but sometimes it is considered gorgeous yet uncomfortable. So why not slip into something comfortable that makes everyone’s jaw drop and the chachis go crazy?
The truth is selecting a perfect dress for your cocktail party is even tougher than selecting one for your wedding ceremony. You don’t want to stand out loud nor want to make your look seem simple. Don’t worry, here are some other options for you other than lehenga:
Unique Saree For Your Cocktail Night
In the ocean of lehengas, a saree is definitely going to stand out. It is neither simple nor heavy for you. There are times when celebrities have worn saree by getting experimental with their blouses. Cocktail sarees are the call for your Indo-western evening wear. Pairing sarees with armlets, bracelets, heavy neck chains, and rings have always been a fad.
Here’s a little help to adorn jewelry with a saree

Indo-western Tunics For Your Cocktail Night
If you want to dance your heart out, look unique and still want to be super comfortable, a tunic is a must-try. A simple slip-on garment made with or without sleeves and usually knee-length or longer, belted at the waist, and worn as an under or outer garment for women.
Look Classy In Your Jumpsuits For Your Cocktail Party
Should I even start with Jumpsuits? Jumpsuits are, without a doubt, a statement style. The head-to-toe, all-in-one garment creates a striking look that moves beyond a simple dress or pants and top combo, and into more fashionable territories.

Crop Tops Paired With Skirts
The best part about crop tops is that you can dig out your wardrobe and create a whole new look out of it. Let’s make one thing clear right off the bat: There is no age limit to owning a crop top. You should wear what you love as long as it makes you feel comfortable. Try pairing a crop top with a skirt and thank us later (winky face).
Fusion And Glitters For Your Cocktail Party
Go crazy. It’s your night if you are still confused why not go for something different? For instance, wear a gown that gives the appearance of a saree. Or break the stereotype of wearing red and go with a white Kurti with a beautiful and heavy ornament.
Now an outfit is just incomplete if the right ornament doesn’t go with the outfit here are some images of beautiful ornaments :
Remember, no matter how beautifully you dress or how on point your makeup is, you will only look perfect if you walk out with confidence. Let all the nervousness be kept aside and all the fun and joy take over after all it’s your cocktail night.
There are varieties of options for you so why settle for less? Remember when Rahul said, “Hum ek baar jeete hain, ek baar marte hain, Shaadi bhi ek baar hoti hain..” Then why think more, Shaadi = only once (hopefully ;)).
Be creative, Go crazy.
