What to wear to a cocktail party before an Indian wedding?
The cocktail is the most western night of an Indian wedding, so this is where gowns, sequinned or pre-draped sarees, jumpsuits and indo-western sets belong. Darker and metallic colours that families avoid on the wedding day, black included, are usually welcome here. Men can wear a suit without a tie, a bandhgala, or a dark kurta with a velvet or brocade jacket. Dress for dancing: a hem you can move in and shoes you can stand in for hours.
