If monochrome summer kurtis are your thing, then this Mrunal Thakur’s ethnic moment has to be in the fashion summer cart. Mrunal brought the perfect blend of maximalism and nostalgia, colliding with a kurta set which came with clean lines, bold contrasts, and an unapologetic structure.
For the press run of her recent release, she chose something that aligns more with her carefree personality and chose to slay in a printed monochrome kurta set from Mishru. The soft playfulness of the neutral palette with her sharp persona made this fit check simply iconic and perfect for day and night events.
The three-piece set came with a sleeveless tunic-style kurta with a pair of fit and flare trousers and a matching dupatta. It was all tied together with a black and white abstract floral print featuring oversized botanicals and graphic detailing with a digitally charged finishing touch everywhere.
This was followed by soft sequins and glass bead decoration on the tunic and trousers, which added a hint of edgy texture without overwhelming the whole look. She teamed this look with footwear from Lino Perros and kept a minimal jewellery choice with pearl huggie earrings and a delicate ring and ditched a heavy necklace instead.
But the main character's energy was served by her sleek braided hair, which helped in showing off each and every detail on the kurta, with clean-girl makeup with a luminous base, defined eyes, brushed eyebrows, and nude-gloss lips.
What made this look land is its attitude. The way she carried this charming ensemble looks like no less than a power move. With this ensemble, she isn’t just revisiting a trend, but she’s reframing it for a generation that knows how to instantly uplift a basic piece and make it look like a dream.
