As the festive season rings in, shopping becomes a priority. After all, new clothes that shout festive cheer are the essence of celebrations! However, shopping for the young ones during this time can become challenging as they require exceptional quality without compromising comfort or style. It is essential to keep in mind that uncomfortable festive clothing not only spoils your child’s mood but also hinders your fun as a parent.
So, special attention is required when it comes to kids’ clothing! In order to have a fuss-free festive experience with your little ones, look for pieces that suit their sensitive skin and provide ease of movement while looking great at the same time. To help you have an easy-breezy shopping experience, here are some of the best festive trends and styles of the season that children will love!
Fun Florals!
What better way to kickstart celebrations than florals? No matter what the occasion, you just can’t go wrong with them! Floral prints work as well on kids as on adults. From vintage roses and paisley to abstract and traditional block prints- florals might seem basic, but their variety can create magic on any garment.
This festive season, opt for a floral Lehenga for your little princess with a flowy silhouette, allowing ample space for her to move and play around, like the one from Bal Bachche by Rohit Bal.
For little Boys, opting for a floral Nehru Jacket can simply do the trick! Pair it with a pure cotton white kurta pyjama set and watch the magic unfold. Take cues from the Bundi jacket and kurta set from Little Bansi. Experimenting with colour combinations is key. Based on whether you go with bright and vibrant shades or soothing pastels, you can create an eye-catching look or a minimalist one for your little style guru!
Classy & Comfy!
When it comes to kidswear, comfort is the topmost priority! Every parent wants their little ones to look great and feel comfortable in whatever they are wearing. Itchy and uneasy clothes are prone to make kids cranky and irritable, spoiling the festive mood. So when you go shopping for your precious ones, look for fabrics that are easy on their delicate skin and avoid the heavy, synthetic ones like polyester or viscose. Think airy and breathable fabrics like cotton and linen, and choose smart styles that do not compromise on comfort.
For little girls, move away from the usual frock and go for a light Sharara Set like the one by label Chotibuti in ivory.
A classic Kurta Set is ideal for your Mr. Junior, especially if it is crafted in cotton or muslin, like the printed kurta set from MR. BRAT, featuring animated comic print all over. The soft and breathable fabric will ensure comfort, while the prints will make it more exciting for your little one!
Pop Of Colour
If there is one thing that children absolutely love, it is colour! Be it on clothing, toys or even food, colourful things appeal to kids instantly. This festive season, make dressing up more enjoyable for your little ones with a splash of colour in their festive wardrobe. Opt for bright and vibrant shades like pink, yellow and red. Bring that festive cheer in full swing with attractive and eye-catching hues.
A vivid peach and pink ombre lehenga set from label Nadaan Parindey is perfect for your little princess to wear to Diwali celebrations. For more casual and lighter styles, opt for relaxed silhouettes like frocks and kaftans.
When shopping for little boys, add subtle pops of colour with styles like the Kurta Set by Littleleens. This off-white set is paired with a green jacket for that perfect touch of colour for the festivities! You can also opt for monotone outfits in vibrant shades, like purple, red or yellow to make the look more interesting!
Delightful Pastels
Pastels have emerged as the top colour trend for the festive season. It’s both celebratory and understated, making it all the more appealing! Going for pastel shades, especially for daytime events, is an excellent idea with the right kind of designs. From soft pink and mint green to baby blue, lavender, mauve and more- pastel shades are delightful and make for excellent festive outfits. Dress up your munchkin in a blush pink lehenga like the one by Torani Kids. In case you want a more relaxed fit, go for easy-to-wear silhouettes like sharara sets and pant sets in soothing hues like lavender, pink and blue. For an added festive touch, look for pieces that have delicate embroideries and perfectly complement the light colour of the garment.
A pastel kurta set with a jacket is ideal festive wear for little boys who want to play around without any hindrance. Check out the light pink Bundi Jacket with Kurta Set from MR BRAT, which features a lovely floral print.
A Touch of Bling
The moment we think about the festivities, all things bling instantly come to our mind- whether it is in the form of festive decor and lighting or the fashion. The element of sparkle is an essential part of the celebrations, and when it comes to kidswear, a little bit of bling goes a long way. Gone are the days when blingy clothes for children meant out-of-proportion sequins, oversized embellishments, frills and ruffles! Minimalism and elegance is the new trend, whether for kids or adults.
Looking for a Lehenga for your mini-me? Opt for minimal embroideries like the Blue Embroidered Lehenga Set by the brand Littleens. Pieces like this, which have the perfect balance of dazzle and minimalism, are not just great for making a fashion statement, but also for spending long-hour celebrations.
So this festive season, add a touch of bling to your little ones’ wardrobe that is both fun and easy to wear. You can also go for a blingy Bundi jacket kurta set like the one by Neha Gursahani Kids in charcoal black and shades of blue, perfect for your rockstar to sport at Diwali parties!
