Groom's Style School: Tips & Trends
Finding the right wedding outfit shouldn't feel like a chore. Here is my guide to modern groom styling, from coordinating with your bride to picking accessories that actually stand out.
Here are three trends I am loving for grooms this season. We're seeing unique silhouettes like asymmetric kurtas, opulent accessories like statement brooches, and modern jewelry like satlaras taking center stage.

Grooms, I know wedding shopping can be a task. I've found a fantastic designer offering unique and stylish groomswear for under 1 lakh. These outfits will ensure you stand out just as much as your bride.

About Groom's Style School: Tips & Trends
Forget matching every detail to your bride's outfit, which can often look too rigid. I prefer picking one subtle element, like your pocket square or the color of your jewelry, to create a cohesive look that still feels distinctly yours.
Wedding styling is often skewed toward brides, but the groom's look sets the tone just as much. Whether you are planning a beach wedding or a traditional palace affair, your outfit needs to balance your personality with the occasion.
Groom's Style Checklist
- Coordination over Matching: You do not need to wear the exact same shade as your bride. If she is in a pastel lehenga, try ivory or champagne tones. If she opts for a bold red, softer gold or muted tones offer a sophisticated contrast.
- Beyond the Mala: Traditional neck malas are fine, but I often steer my clients toward single-line polki necklaces or statement brooches. These bring an opulent feel without looking outdated.
- Tailoring Matters: You could buy the most expensive sherwani, but if the silhouette does not fit your body type, it will not work. I always advocate for custom modifications to collars, buttons, and linings.
2025 Trend Outlook
For 2025, we are seeing a shift toward earthy tones and asymmetric cuts. Layering is key, especially for pre-wedding functions where you can experiment with indo-western separates. Do not be afraid to mix Indian textures with western silhouettes. My goal is to ensure you build a wardrobe that you can actually wear again, rather than something that sits in a box after the wedding.
