Black Cotton Readymade Kurta
A designer kurta for men adds to an informal and indo-western look and is widely popular amongst the younger generation of the country because it’s considered a cool way to fuse the western and eastern fashion sensibilities. Most people tend to wear this attire when they want to relax and appear totally casual. However, in spite of the unfussy look that this attire gives, it is also accepted in various creative work environments like journalism and advertising, which is why one sees various working professionals wearing this outfit. Men’s kurta designs come in all sorts of shapes and varieties in order to appeal to various style sensibilities. The most common kurta for men is the cotton full sleeved version that comes till the knees and is worn predominantly with jeans or churidars and/or pajamas, if the wearer chooses to make the garment appear more ethnic.

When paired with jeans, the kurta shirt is accessorized with flip flops or even Indian shoes such as juttis or mojaris while when paired with pajamas, they are paired with only Indian shoes. In a formal setting, this attire is worn most often to a prayer meeting or a religious ceremony. It is considered inappropriate for highly formal settings such as weddings as guests are expected to wear elegant and chic clothes instead of casual wear.

This outfit was immortalized in pop culture by hit movies where the protagonists were meant to be college students and wore these clothes. While originally the kurta for men were mostly plain and meant to give off a highly casual look, these are also now available in various styles with embroidery work and in different types of fabrics. The kurta shirt, in all the different forms, can be found in Utsav Fashion’s ethnic catalogue for men.
