Meethi Eid is approaching once more, and even people who don’t care about fashion need to at least be somewhat knowledgeable about it. This means frantic trips to the tailor, the hunt for the ideal color match, and long hours spent poring over aisle after aisle in busy stores. There is a lot to be done in a short amount of time for fashion enthusiasts who have been influenced by their favorite drama serials and Instagram feeds to show off the newest trends.
What better time than Eid to discover which accessory trend is here to stay? The year 2024 has brought out a new wave of fashion statements, some old and others new. Here are five ways to accessorise for Eid, ranging from elegant teekas to plastering bows on everything:
A coquette Eid
Bows are setting the standard for the ultra-feminine look, which is making a big comeback. Bows were once limited to hair decorations, but they are currently quite popular in the fashion industry. Bows are the essential 2024 accessory, whether they’re used on your hair or as adornments on your jewelry and luggage.
Whether you want to mix and match them or opt with a single statement piece, embrace the coquette look that’s trending on social media. Bows are a Pinterest trend that are sure to inject some playfulness into your Eid outfit.
Cuff bracelets
This year, sculptural designs and clean lines will be everything. Source? Every major runway for fall/winter 2024, from Saint Laurent to Gucci. Cuff bracelets, in contrast to many runway styles that are too risky or mismatched for desi situations, are a classy touch that exudes modernism via simplicity.
These accessories may add a dash of 80s style to both a maxi dress and a gharara, from delicately piled thin bracelets to dramatic, single cuffs that take center stage.
Chandelier earrings
There aren’t many earrings in the jewelry inventory that can match the classic jhumkas’ allure. The old and familiar may strike the perfect balance between comfort and elegance, somewhere between the large statement earrings of Paris fashion shows and the hefty formal glitz of our local runways.
Fortunately, there is another option for those hoping for a subdued creative explosion this Eid: chandelier earrings. It’s evident from Mahira Khan’s most recent picture session that dangling and black earrings will never go out of style. They elegantly elevate even the most basic of ensembles with their beautiful swings, which give the skin a glowing touch. It makes sense that they have continued to be a mainstay on the red carpet, bringing a little of glitz to every look.
Dainty teekas
Between the generations of our mothers and grandparents, the magnificent teeka was associated with weddings at some point. Sleek, delicate teekas that shout more craftsmanship than weight are making a reappearance as the fashion industry rekindles our passion for the vintage look.
These understated yet eye-catching accessories, which range from floral patterns to straightforward wire or bead work, may encapsulate the essence of classic appeal with a laid-back, stylish twist. Delicate teekas, crafted with elaborate motifs and embellished with glittering gemstones or pearls, accentuate the wearer’s inherent beauty and go well with saree and gharara ensembles during Eid.
Jewel-studded chokers
Chokers are another essential item in the world of fashion accessories, whether they are made of layers of finely spun pearls and jewels or just a single string of beads with a striking focal point. The neck-fitting embellishment embraces the avant-garde of current design while conjuring up the romanticism of bygone centuries, from the Mughal royals to the French Renaissance.
For an extravagant touch, team it with a simple kurta shalwar or a sleek long dress. Wearing a solid studded choker is a certain way to turn heads during Eid.
