Kurti Length?? What to pair it with?? What Suits Me?

Today, i would like to blog about some of the basics like what kind of kurtis would suit people and how to pair them w.r.t the height and body structure. Kurtis come in different lengths, varying from waist length to toe length long. Choosing the right kind will help one to complement their body structure. It is important to accept your body structure. But it is also important to dress according to what suits you.

Let me get this through, if you have the perfect body, all toned up, lean, and perfect shape, almost everything will suit you. And there is no question or confusion in that case.

No offence, but I don't want to talk about the perfect 'bodied' ones today.



Lets start off with the "shorties". Long toe-length kurtis are a big no-no for people who are short in length.  You would look shorter in these. But still you can opt to wear these, by pairing it with good pair of heels and leggings with lesser churi. Lesser the number of churi, taller you would look. No one would want to stay away from those elegant anarkali-kind toe length kurtis. Only thing, make sure your feet is visible, and wear heels. Dont wear toe length kurtis with jeans.

Short kurtis would look good on shorter people as this makes them look taller. The visibility of your legs causes this effect.

But if you are short and have thick thighs, please do opt for a kurti that is knee-length long. As that will hide your thighs and you will still look taller. If you want to wear kurtis shorter than knee length, pair it with jeans, since jeans does not hug like leggings. Don't wear leggings with short kurtis, if you have a heavy bottom. Its just really indecent!

For "longies", its best to opt for mid length or longer kurtis, you dont want to look like a giraffe. And again the same rules applies for people with heavy thighs. Shorter kurtis with jeans, longer kurtis with leggings (no heels :p), and knee length kurtis for heavy thighs.

The basic way to hide heftiness, is to direct the focus away from the hefty parts. So if it is your upper body that is heavy, wearing mid-thigh length or knee-length kurtis would be apt.

Another way to pair kurtis is with patiala pants. Patiala pants usually seem to suit longer people. But this isn't true, any one can wear them, if paired with the right kind of kurti.

If you are long, then go for knee length kurti paired with patiala and a pair of flats. Kurtis below knee length will hide the frills of the patiala, so knee length is apt. Shorter length is also fine, but that is totally up to you.

If you are short, then go for mid-thigh length kurti with patiala and a pair of flats( or heels, depending upon the situation). Knee length kurti is also fine.

So thats it! Just something I had in my mind. Hope atleast few would find this useful.
Have a nice day :)
