Pair it right this season

Play with colours, fabrics and silhouettes to create fresh new looks that are in sync with this playful season. Here are a few dresses for girls, fresh off the boat to help you sail through.

Trusty tunics

Right at the top of the list, tunics are perhaps one of the most versatile outfits. Belt them, plait them or dress them, they can create a number of looks based on what you need.

Moreover, a tunic can easily be thrown over a pair of palazzos, a skirt, or a pair of leggings! So, if the weather has been treacherous and didn't quite dry what you had planned on wearing, just throw on your trusty tunic like a dress.

Pair it with a neat updo, comfy rainy shoes and off you go!

Short hemlines

Monsoon definitely calls for shorter hemlines for the sheer practicality of it.

Indigo printed dresses are simply beautiful. Create an Indie-chic look with braided hair, slip-resistant canvas shoes and a playful printed umbrella.

You can also create a boho look with scarves, statement accessories and gladiator flats.

Highs and lows

Long kurtis, skirts or sarees are a no-no as they get dirty the moment you hit the road.

Asymmetric cuts, also known as highs and lows, are a good bet in the monsoon.

Pick bright happy hues that will let the sun have its moment when it finally manages to peek out. Tie the look together with jelly shoes and a sling bag that fits your daily essentials.

Long dupattas can be replaced with scarfs or stoles. Stay away from prints and fabric that tend to bleed when wet.

Cool culottes

While we all crush on palazzos, monsoons aren't exactly conducive to this piece of clothing.

However, the fashion gods have not left us lost and wandering! Culottes, a distant cousin of the palazzo is exactly what you need this season.

Culottes are right on the epithet of comfortable clothing and can be paired with anything to create a variety of looks. Say goodbye to dripping hemlines this monsoon with short and sweet styles.

Pair those kurtis and tops with culottes for a practical yet stylish monsoon.

Choose jelly shoes, flats or floaters that are also slip resistant. Avoid loose sandals as they tend to squirt dirt back on to you.
