Ganesha Chaturthi 2020 – Perfect outfit ideas to look traditional in this festive season

Ganesha Chaturthi is major Indian festival celebrated in many parts of India. This festival is marked with the installation of Ganesha clay idols both publicly and privately. People keep his idol in their houses for a period of 1 and half, five, seven or 10 days. During this period people make celebrations, pooja, decorations, dance and all senses of cheer.

This festival is celebrated for Lord Ganesha who is the god of beginnings and also a remover of hurdles. It is celebrated to honor the birth of Lord Ganesha who is the son of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati.

Birth of Ganesha Chaturthi

Ganesha is known by the names Heramba, Ganapathi, pillaiyar, vinayagar and Ekadantha. There are two different versions of his birth story, one is Goddess Parvathi created Lord Ganesha out of dirt from her body while having bath. And set him to guard her door so that nobody enters until she finishes her bath. Lord Shiva who has gone out, just returned at that time, as Ganesha didn’t know about Shiva, he stopped him from entering. Angry Shiva, on hearing this severed Ganesha’s head. Parvathi was enraged and Shiva promised that he would be alive again. Devas who went in search of a head facing north, managed to bring only elephant’s head. Shiva then placed the elephants head on the child and bought him back to life.

Other one is, Lord Ganesha was created by Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvathi on request by all Deva’s to be a Vighnakarta (Obstacle creator) in the path of rakshasas (Demon beings) and Vighnahartaa (Obstacle averter) to help Devas.

Choice of Fabrics

Choose a perfect traditional wear that can accentuate your look. Choose an Indian wear that best suits your body type.

A saree, Anarkali, skirt or lehenga suits in bright vibrant colors for all tall or short slim fitted girls.

On the other hand, if you are a chubbier person then avoid wearing long flared Anarkali’s or lehengas instead you can opt for V-necked Anarkali or stylish kurta to complement your look.

Colors to opt for in this festive season

Maroon, reddish orange, navy blue, golden lime and aqua green will be a best choice to look like a glam diva in this occasion.

If your choice is Saree then we have a few ideas on how to style a saree

  • In recent times Kalamkari is a super hit, pair a plain saree with a kalamkari blouse or kalamkari saree with a chic blouse of your choice.
  • Handloom sarees looks majestic. Nothing can beat a woman who wears a high bun with a jasmine, wearing a pair of jhumka, bold bindi and a bright lipstick.

If you are someone who is lusting over your mom’s or grand mom’s collection, then pick their sarees with check patterns, parallel lines and temple borders which might be safely tucked inside their wardrobe.

Blouse Ideas

  • Blouse designs are right away meant to look more traditional and homely. One such design is elegant puff design.
  • If you don’t want to wear a heavy silk saree then go for simple linen or cotton sarees with designer blouse to compensate the rich look.
