How to Choose the Perfect Mehndi Dress for Men
We all are well aware that mehndi is that one function where brides love dolling up. They like to play with colours, wear florals, stylish jewellery, and a lot of drama. They want to get intricate mehndi designs on their hands and feet, shine bright in that ultra-expensive outfit, share music, and dance with friends. They are going all in on functions considering summer fashion trends. And we all know deep down they want their grooms to match their energy. Grooms also see this as the best chance to experiment with style, colour, and prints.
It's traditional for men to wear eccentric colour kurtas with different styles of pyjamas. However, you can also wear a complementary dress with your bride or go completely casual if you are comfortable. Mehndi in Pakistan is all about fun, dance, and food. It is a preparatory day before the big day of Barat. With so much variety in styles, colours, and brands available, it's hard to give a final call on one dress to go with.

Simple Kurta
Kurta can be worn with different kinds of salwar, pyjamas, pants, etc. Donning a simple kurta is one of the top hyped mehndi dresses for men. Kurtas come from various regions of Pakistan, and all have different styles. Pairing them with traditional shawls and sandals will transform your look. From an all-year office and casual to a kurta style, there will be a huge difference. The bride can alsod go simple and wear women silk dresses with decorative flowers. Silk is a rich fabric and gives a beautiful shape to your body. Just finalise a floral pattern or vibrant colour.
Jacket styles for Men's Mehendi Outfit
A jacket can be used to modernise your traditional look. You can wear a long or short coat to complement the theme or to make your look stylish. It could be an embroidered or simple stuffed jacket. It's quite common for men to wear kurta shirts, and only the groom wears the jacket to add specialty.
Achkans
These are made of different fabrics to be worn on formal occasions. In the old days, it was a casual dress for men. It features traditional embroidery like Gota and Badla. It gives grace and smartness if worn in good style and colour. This dress will give you that bossy men look. The bride can wear a new styled luxury pret dress for women and match the energy.
Shewani also resembles achkan. Sherwani usually has a full shalwar kameez and a gown on top, while achkan is shalwar and has a closed gown. Sherwani is traditionally worn at baraat ceremonies or mehndi functions. A well-fitted sherwani with embroidery, zari, threadwork, and rich royal colour looks very stunning. Pair these with a long chadar and traditional footwear to accentuate your look.
Kurta-Pyjama with Waistcoat
Kurta pyjamas are the easiest, comfortable, and most elegant mehndi dress for men. You can choose a vibrant colour according to your bride or theme and pair it with a waistcoat. I would suggest you go for bold colours or bold prints. Complete your look by accessorising it and wearing very traditional footwear that also has colours.
Bandhgala Brilliance
Bandhgala is a small achkan kind of gown or coat paired with dress pants. It also can be worn in different colours, fabrics, and patterns. You can also choose a bandh gala suit in bold colour with geometric patterns. Many celebrities have worn it, and it looks absolutely gorgeous. Accessorise with good shoes, pocket squares, and buttons.
Fusion-Inspired Ensemble
Fusion is when we take different styles and fabrics to make something new. Suppose you are looking to break away from tradition and anything you have already seen; fusion wear is a well-optimised option for you. Try different things and mix and match to make your signature style. That could be a Nehru jacket with a dhoti or a kurta with pants. Or experiment with different colours to showcase your happy creation.
Embellished Safa and Accessories
Safa is a turban. It's an Indian look, but many Pakistani celebrities have worn it. It can be plain white or a contrast colour that gives a touch of regality to your look. If all women are dressed up in festive women dresses then the groom can wear a turban to make heads turn and look unique in the whole wedding function.
Wear Complementary or Matching Outfits
Pakistani mehndi functions are either combined or separated. If you have a combined function with your bride, then you must go for matching outfits. While complementing your bride, you can still stand out and have more fun. For example, if the bride is wearing a pastel colour, go for bold shades.
If she is wearing the whole garden, your goggles can make you look more dashing.
If she is wearing a long tail with beads on it, you can wear a turban and still rock. That woman would take hours to get ready, but if you dress wisely, you can easily turn all eyes to yourself.
