Wedding, for most people, is the most auspicious and special event of their lives. Some are meticulous about every little detail related to the wedding. The wedding dress is one of the most important things that makes the event magnificent and perfect. While most of the attention is usually grabbed by the bride’s costume, in recent times, designer outfits are being customized even for grooms.
Today, men’s wedding suits come in a wide variety of collection. But the first thing grooms have to decide is the kind of suit they prefer.
If a Western suit, which is considered a formal wear for men, consisting more or less of a shirt paired with a formal trouser, a coat, a bow-tie and black leather shoes, is preferred by a groom as his wedding attire, he must first consider certain aspects. The first thing he has to decide on is the style and cut of the suit. Secondly, with regard to the weather condition prevalent during the wedding and the time of the wedding, the groom has to decide on the fabric and colour of his outfit.
If the wedding attire is an Indo-Western suit, like a Sherwani, the groom again has to select among a full range of Sherwani collection that varies in colours, fabrics, styles and prices. A Sherwani is a long-sleeved, knee-length, fitted coat that is beautifully embroidered in the front and is paired either with a trouser or an Indian Churidar. The cut and style is contemporary and modern, and the embroidery is done with zari, beads, stones, golden strings etc. Recently, Pure Silk is being used to make sophisticated, elegant Sherwanis, which looks magnificent on the groom.
Now, once the type of suit is selected, the next thing in line is the fact whether the groom’s suit is tailor made or bought ready-made. An auspicious and special occasion like wedding surely calls for the best, and there’s nothing better than a dress customized by a tailor exclusively for the groom, even if it’s quite expensive.
Choosing a wedding suit from a designer’s collection can make the groom look and feel extra special on this significant day. But to make the outfit worth the expense, the choice of cut, style and colour should be made carefully so that it can be worn on any occasion for the next ten years.
When budget is a factor, standard ready-made suits from a department store are quite a good option. In this case, it becomes easier to match the best man’s suit with the suits of the groomsmen.
With a revolution in the fashion industry, special attention is being given to the men’s wedding collections. Grooms are coming out of the conventional dress codes, and exploring the contemporary fashion ideas.
