Shaadi season is here, ya’ll know that! There are some trends that come in each season, yet there are some looks that are just classic. The kiran dupatta is a style of dupatta that was extremely popular back in the day. If you ever look at pictures of your daadi/naani’s shaadi, then you’ve definitely seen this style.
The past few years, the kiran dupatta has made a comeback and it’s been quite an intense return. Designers have been returning to the classic style and embracing the old world charm.
Designers and celebrities have wholeheartedly embraced this trend
The look is simple; simple kurta paired with the kiran dupatta.

The dupatta style paired with ghararas creates the PERFECT classic look
The kaam, especially in this look, creates an aura of elegance and grace, which modern kaam and techniques have not been able to achieve.

The intensity of the ‘frills’ can change, but it looks just as great
You could go all out, but if you want to keep it simple, the kiran could be short.

The trend can be traced back to Punjabi culture when the women of the family would get together to sew the jora together
