Sangeet To Cocktail Party: Dress Up In These 11 Anarkalis Under INR 5000

We love this one because it’s Indigo, cotton, and block printed. The kurta comes with a matching dupatta and pants which are semi-elasticated (so size shouldn’t be a problem.) The set itself goes from an XS to a 4XL which we think is pretty great! Being made of cotton, you’re assured breathability, which is much appreciated with all the hustle and bustle of the festivities. Since it’s handcrafted, it’s advised to wash it by hand or dry-clean. What we love most about it, is that the dupatta being printed and absolutely gorgeous can be used with different outfits, whereas the kurta itself can be worn as an Indo-fusion dress paired with chunky silver jewellery!

If you haven’t noticed already, full sleeved anarkalis are in trend and we love that because of how polished and classy they look. This one by Lavanya is a great example of a simple, round neck, flowy cotton anarkali with gold detailing on the front which gives it a light festive vibe. The whole set comes with the anarkali kurta and a dupatta which matches the gold detailing on the torso. Size wise this one starts at XXS going up to a 3XL, but what we love most is that this is machine-washable, so brownie points for convenience.

Perfect for a haldi ceremony or a family re-union, it’s bright, yellow, and an anarkali that fits your budget! We like this one because it has an almost pleated effect down the front with gold gota on the edges. The kurta itself can be re-worn as a dress, so yaaay for multi-purpose outfits! The set comes with a dupatta, and a pair of pants too. The size ranges from XS to 2XL, the material on the other hand is predominantly cotton and since it is brightly coloured, if not washed by hand and with care, it might run colour.

This anarkali screams festive ethnic. It's vibrant, colourful, with a traditional print and comes with a colour-block dupatta . Switch that out with something else on another, if you're not feeling the colour block vibe. Sizes start at XS and go up to 3XL. The entire suit is made up of chiffon which is a super lightweight and breathable fabric, plus its very flow-y which adds more charm to an anarkali. All in all, we think this one will make a great fit for a Diwali, taash party, or even a puja. Or better still, twirl away at a sangeet!

Way over budget, but on a great discounted price, this piece by Gajra Ganj is perfect for a haldi, or puja situation, while it also comes in a pink variant. We love that its chikankaari and even though it's not traditional embroidery, the charm stands. The entire set comes with matching leggings and a dupatta. The suit has a poly-crepe lining since the suit is georgette which tends to be a semi-transparent fabric which also being durable. Size wise this one is standard ranging from S to 2XL. Even after the massive discount it is slightly higher (INR 750 more) than the INR 5000 budget, but looking at how pretty and must we say unique looking it is, we think it's worth it!

Perfect for an evening look, this beige and gold set by Biba comes with a matching floral dupatta (which is gorgeous) and a beige churidaar. The kurta itself is quite minimal with slight gold brocade work along with buttons on the front. the material used is polyester which is a light and super durable fabric which tends to wick away moisture and sweat (needless to say, this one is dance approved too!) On the other hand, the sizes start at 32 going up to 42.

This georgette peach set comes with a dupatta and matching pants. The subtle metallic detail throughout the kurta, on the front, and on the edges of the dupatta stands out making it a great fit for a light festive occasion. We're thinking a Diwali party or a dinner for BFFs wedding. At first glance itself and thanks to the georgette fabric you can tell that it has a lot of flare, making the bottom half almost lehenga like. Size wise, this one starts at a 3X and goes up to 3XL.

You can never go wrong with white, because we'll go out on a limb and say that it is one of the easiest colours to style. Depending on the accessories, the dupatta, and the pant too, you can be wearing a whole new outfit every single time. However for this one by Ambraee, we love the dupatta it comes with because of it's tassel and block print design. And as you know, tassel are in trend, so why not get on to the trend. This one comes in a XS size gong up to 2XL while the material is cotton chiffon which is not only super soft, but breathable too.

They have sizes from XS to 4XL.

The sheer chunni with gold piping matched with the simplicity of silhouette of this set has our heart.

It's made from Rayon, which is soft on the skin and usually comfortable to wear.
