We had already written about this trend guys. Instead of a plain-coloured safa, it is ideal to go for a nice breezy floral design that can uplift your look in minutes. Choose simple florals - not big fat ones, look for pastel hues - not crazy brights.Layered Jewellery

If Benarasi is big with the bride, then it's bound to be big with the groom too. But since it's heavier fabric and woven in silk, it's grander and posh, making it a beautiful trend to sport for men who know their style!Old Fashioned Dhoti

Skip the chudidhaar or patiala and go full dhoti guys - it might just up the ante. Because it's so avant-garde and retro at the same time, it's a winner!Go Feathery
