Ombre or dip-dye trend is now so much in fashion and that means, you can add your own little twist to the outfit. Get your nearest tailor or designer to dye it in a unique hue!

Add a unique twist to your blouse

You can make any blouse into the style you want. We particularly think that a backless tie-up is an excellent choice and it's easy for your tailor to create it from an existing blouse design!

Add a jacket

Worried your outfit is too cliched? Just ask your designer or tailor to add a jacket made of the same material to give it a twist.

Create an entirely new bottom!

From your existing lehenga, it's nice to create an entirely new outfit. Get your lehenga with so much cloth and make it into something slinky - a dhoti pant or a straight-cut skirt. And wear it with your existing blouse and dupatta. So chic!

Add a majorly crazy latkan

When you wanna go different, go big or go home! So add your own personal latkan - a new one or one you created putting together two or three to make it quirky.

Contrast like mad
