Wedding Sherwani

When it comes to an Indian wedding, sherwanis counts amongst the most popular dressing options for the groom. A traditional attire of Indian men, it was initially worn only by the males in Uttar Pradesh, along with the city of Hyderabad. However, with the passing time, sherwani came to be the ultimate wedding attire, wooing grooms in almost all the parts of India. Quite similar to an Achkan, or a doublet, it gives the perfect 'traditional' look to an Indian man. Combine it with a stole, mojris and Bandhni pagri and you are all set to make heads turn in your own wedding.


Sherwani is somewhat similar to a coat, but extends down till the knees (sometimes even lower). One of the traditional garments worn in South Asia, especially India, it is worn on top of a kurta, a loose shirt that also reaches till the knees. A sherwani can be paired with a churidar, khara pajama or a shalwar. At times, it might be worn along with a dhoti as well. The dress is made from heavy suiting fabrics, has a close body fit and is fastened in the front, with buttons. Many-a-times, there is a lining underneath the sherwani.


There are a number of fabrics that can be used for the purpose of a sherwani. The one chosen by the groom will depend entirely on his personal preference as well as the budget. Generally speaking, different types of silk and poly-silk are the fabrics mostly chosen for wedding sherwani. You will find sherwanis in cotton also, but they not gel well with the lavish affair of an Indian wedding. Whatever be the fabric, Indian wedding sherwani is often heavily embroidered. In some cases, stone work, sequins and crystals are also used to adorn it.


Red, maroon and golden comprise of the most popular color options, as far as sherwanis for the Indian groom are concerned. Apart from that, many of the grooms also prefer going in for colors like off-white, cream, brown and gray for their sherwani. Then, there is the universal black as well, which goes perfectly with any and every type of wedding. The exact color of the sherwani will depend upon the time of the wedding (day or night), the complexion of the groom and the personal preference of the groom.


Amongst the accessories that go well with a sherwani, the first item that comes to mind is the stole, which is draped around the neck. Its color depends upon the color of the sherwani. However, in most of the cases, red, golden or silver colored stoles are worn with it. Coming to the footwear, mojris and jootis make up the best options. However, if you are uncomfortable in them, you can go for sandals as well. The other accessories that can complement a wedding sherwani are gold/silver cufflinks, watch, gold bracelet and gold chain.


Leather Shoes



Care of leather shoes is not just about making your shoes look good, which would be reason enough to take care of them. It's also about preserving and adding to the life of your leather shoes.Whether you spend a lot on your shoes, or don't have much to spend, taking care of your leather shoes makes sense.

In the case of designer, or more expensive shoes, look at it as though you're protecting your investment, or what could be a future collectible. And if you don't have a lot to spend on shoes, keeping the ones you have in great shape will remove the need to buy new shoes for every occasion.

Without proper conditioning and care, leather can dry out until it eventually cracks and falls apart, and you'll no longer want to wear them out of the house - even if they did cost a small fortune While some people are content to throw on a coat of shoe polish when their shoes start to look shabby, to really protect your leather shoes and keep them looking their best, there are four steps to follow.

There are important distinctions between caring for smooth leather shoes and caring for suede, exotic skins, nubuck, or athletic shoes. The following general instructions pertain to caring for smooth leather shoes, such as men's or women's leather dress shoes.

In the next section, we'll address products for smooth leather shoe care, and how to prepare for a shoe cleaning session.

Black tie is a dress code for formal evening events, and is worn to many types of social functions. For a man, the major component is a jacket, known as a dinner jacket (British) or tuxedo (Canada and the U.S.), which is usually black but is also seen in midnight blue. A woman's corresponding evening dress ranges from a conservative cocktail dress to the long evening gown, determined by current fashion, local custom, and the occasion's time.








The term tuxedo is itself variously used in different parts of the world. It always refers to some form of dinner jacket, and sees most use in North America, where the term originated. There, it is commonly taken to mean a modern variation on the traditional black tie, while in Britain, it is sometimes used to refer to the white jacket alternative.[1]
