Are you one of those people who dread shopping for an event because nothing really looks good? We have a solution for your co ord sets. Ditch the basic t-shirt and jeans on regular days and impossibly heavy sarees and lehengas at a festive event, and even your skirts and dresses during a tropical vacation for an all-encompassing co ord set.
Co-ords are two or more pieces of clothing that follow a similar colour, pattern, and fabric that are paired together to create a cohesive look. They even look good on all body types because you can split a co ord set anywhere to make it look flattering. People with hourglass figures can choose a set with a small top and a high-waisted bottom, while people with an apple body can choose more flowy bottoms with a jacket and a bold top.
Co-ords are uber-fashionable since many celebrities and influencers have been seen sporting the look at many different occasions. If you have yet to alight from the traditional attire train, do it quick and join the co-ord bandwagon. Here are a few ways you can style a co ord set for different occasions.
Why Are Co-ords Such A Celebrity-Favorite
Co-ords are so well-liked by all, but they are especially seen styled by celebrities and social media influencers because of several reasons. Let’s see a few below.
- All Day Comfort
Co-ords are very comfortable as they are more breathable as compared to your everyday jeans and yet they accentuate your shape without hugging your body too much.
- Variety In Styles
Co-ords are available in Western, Indo-Western, and Indian styles as they are very flexible and adaptable in nature. They are found in a plethora of colours, fabrics, patterns, and prints making them versatile and inclusive.
- Suitable For All
No matter what your body type or height, the right co ord set can highlight your shape and make you appear the way you want. A shorter person can opt for a high-waist, short bottom with an oversized top to appear taller, while someone with an apple body can opt for a fitting top with a long skirt to appear more proportionate.
- Accessible
Unlike other high fashion items worn by celebrities and people of the high fashion world, co-ords are very accessible in nature. They come in a variety of sizes, colours, fabrics, and patterns making them very affordable and inclusive among all classes.
Co-ord Sets for Every Occasion
- Floral Delight
Florals are not just a summer pattern but a design you can rock in any season. Floral co-ords thus make a great addition to your wardrobe because they bring a fun vibe to any event. They are so versatile you can style them for so many events, from a daytime haldi event to a fun brunch date with your girlfriends, floral co-ords have to be your go-to choice.
- All Night Glam
Not just a day outfit but co-ords can be a sophisticated evening outfit as well. A darker-coloured co-ord that’s bedazzled with stones, tassels, and beads can really elevate your mood and look for the night. They are super comfortable so you never have to leave the dance floor and they are not restrictive so you don’t have to worry about gorging on all the amazing food at the buffet (because let’s be honest, the food and the DJ are the only reasons we attend a wedding these days).
- Bohemian Chic
If you want your colourful, bold, and playful personality to reflect on your outfit then a boho chic high fashion co ord set is the way to go. This co-ord style is perfect for a day out outdoors or even a poolside fiesta. You can style a boho co-ord with eccentric jewellery, rustic colours, and a voguish scarf or bandana that ties in the whole country-girl look.
- Monochrome Madness
A perfect winter co-ord would be a monochromatic co-ord that sits well with the chill vibe of the season. A single-coloured or shades of the same colour co-ord make it easy to transition from a day to night event, especially when you have to attend parties after a long day at work. They help you seamlessly transition from girl-boss mode to party-girl mode with some makeup and jewellery. Add a pop of colour to your shoes or bag to elevate the whole aesthetic.
- Gingham Style
If you are a fan of the 70s and the 80s when it comes to fashion, material, pattern, and use of autumn colours, then you will love a gingham co-ord. This style incorporates the usage of a plaid-like pattern on coarse cotton fabric that is perfect for a lake picnic on a sunny day. A classic red and white gingham on a lush green ground is the recipe for core memories and gram-worthy pictures.
- Tie-Dye Season
Tie-dye seem to never go out of style no matter how many new patterns and styles emerge from the fashion world. It is an ideal go-to for a chill day with your friends or even a relaxing day in. Tie-dyes offer an extremely nonchalant vibe that will help you mellow down from the stress and responsibilities of the week.
- All In Hue Time
A vibrant coloured co ord set is yet another amazing fit that’s a must-have in your everyday wardrobe. Vibrant colours such as yellow, orange, green, blue, and red look so flattering on the Indian sink tones as they bring out our inner radiance and highlight our olive, brown, and yellow undertones. A colourful co-ord is perfect for dancing, brunches, and even a shopping day out.
Parting Thoughts
From daytime events to evening glam, a co ord set possesses the versatility and inclusivity that everyone needs in their wardrobe – including stars like Ananya Panday and Kiara Advani. Co ord sets flatter almost all body types, people of different heights, and skin tones. Not just Western styles, co ord sets are also available in traditional Indian styles, with ethnic fabrics, patterns, prints, designs and colours, offering you the best of worlds when it comes to style and comfort.
