Top Men’s Traditional Wear Trends for 2025: What’s in This Wedding Season
Every year, wedding fashion changes, and in 2025 men's fashion is going to be the best ever. At Sanwara, we have seen and experienced how grooms and wedding guests are winning over the people with their confidence, culture, and modernity in Indian fashion. The Male Traditional Wear this year is all about the combination of traditional crafts and modern designs—the making of outfits that are still very much connected to the past but at the same time fit for the present-day celebrations coming along.
During our selection of styles for the upcoming season, we have seen very significant changes in colors, cuts, fabrics, and embellishments. You might be the groom, the best man, or a very fashionable baraati, and in any case, you should be aware of the Men Traditional Wear trends that will dominate 2025.
1. Return of Royal Silhouettes: Sherwanis Make a Statement
Sherwani is the epitome of elegance, and it is going to be the year's major fashion in 2025. Sherwani is still a classic for men's ethnic wear, with designers bringing back fashion drawing from Indian kings and queens.
One would find a mix of structured shoulders, tapered fittings, and detailed handwork that tells a tale. The house of Sanwara has put together men's sherwani styles with zardozi, threadwork, and jacquard textures—ideal for grooms who want to make a statement with their sophisticated look. Bold and heavy like emerald, maroon, blue, and gold are the colors taking the top position for evening weddings, plus sherwani becomes the number one choice for those weddings.
Adding churidars, dhotis, or straight pants as a complementary piece with sherwanis provides you various options for personalizing your entire outfit. Regardless of styling you go for, this will always be one of the trends in Men’s Traditional Wear that does not die.
2. Rise of Contemporary Fusion: The New-Age Kurtas
The kurta isn’t merely a customary staple in 2025—it has become a fashion statement. There is a noticeable shift of more men towards creative cuts, light embroidery, off-centered hems, and blends of Indian and Western styles. The coming year will be an exhilarating change for anyone considering kurta for men.
Daytime events are overwhelmed with muted tones such as sage green, icy blue, stone grey, and warm ivory. These hues are not only refreshing but also stunning in the camera—perfect for haldi, mehendi, and small intimate weddings. For people who prefer something a bit more traditional, deep colors like wine, navy, and charcoal are still the main features in Men's Traditional Wear.
At Sanwara, the assortment of long and short kurtas is all about comfort and style at the same time. Using breathable materials such as cotton-silk, linen blends, and modal, our kurtas are your best friends during the entire celebration in terms of comfort. These styles also mix seamlessly with straight pants or churidars for a neat, contemporary outfit.
3. Trending Now: Kurta Sets Get a Luxe Upgrade
The coupling of outfits is still very much in vogue and has even gone further in 2025, with the men's kurta set being the top choice everywhere. This year’s kurta sets are marked by monochrome shades, tone-on-tone embellishment, and audacious dupattas.
Just think of the ivory-on-ivory chikankari, pastel embroidered kurtas with tender organza dupattas or a lively kurta with a printed coat. These mixtures not only appear neat but also simplify dressing; thus, they are ideal for the brides' brothers and groomsmen, or anyone after a stylish look with minimal effort.
Sanwara's kurta sets come to you with the utmost precision tailoring, which means that every detail—neckline to sleeve—will be in perfect harmony with the beauty of Men's Modern Traditional Wear.
4. The Timeless Nehru Jacket Reinvented
In the domain of men's ethnic wear and versatile layering, an Nehru jacket surpasses all in elegance. The men's Nehru jacket for 2025 has been now designed with new textures, new prints, and even new fabulous buttons which are sorts of statements in their own right.
The bandhgalas in opulent materials like velvet, silk brocade, and cotton jacquard will be a few to mention. And then there are the Printed Nehru jackets with geometric motifs, floral detailing, or abstract designs who are also the leading for daytime events. The Nehru jacket worn over a kurta set is the easiest way to upgrade your outfit—this is why it is the most suitable for sangeets, cocktail nights, or family functions.
Sanwara specializes in these jackets by offering them as mix-and-match pieces, thus, creating an infinite number of ways for our customers to renew their wedding wardrobes.
5. Pastel Power: Modern, Breezy & Perfect for Daytime
Pastels have been a part of every season for a long time, but in 2025 they will show up in a more elegant character. The shades of powder blue, blush pink, mint green, lilac, and buttercream are the ones that are completely flooding the daytime activities. Pastels are no longer limited to brides—the grooms and the wedding guests have also started to accept pastel shades as a part of their traditional Men Wear wardrobe.
For the grooms, pastel shades get their best appearance in the form of chikankari kurtas, jacquard sherwanis, and embroidered Nehru jackets. Furthermore, these colors very well suit the traditional jewelry items such as brooches, malas, and pocket squares.
While helping men with their outfits, we are also encouraging them to use light shades for the ceremonies like roka, haldi, mehendi, and day weddings. Thus, their style will be fresh, modern, and photographable.
6. Prints & Patterns That Steal the Show
If a male wants to impress, printed outfits are going to be the thing to wear, and printed outfits are coming on strong. From floral kurtas and geometric bandis to digital-print sherwanis and textured jackets—prints give an instant visual impact.
The trend beautifully matches the increasing acceptance of Indo-Western looks in Men's Traditional Wear. Sanwara is witnessing a rise in the interest for floral silk kurtas, ajrakh-inspired prints, and subtle Mughal motifs. These items are perfect for pre-wedding gatherings, festive dinners and family celebrations.
Moreover, prints are a great medium for self-expression—offering one to be seen without falling too much outside the traditional beauty.
7. Comfort is King: Lightweight Fabrics Take Over
The weddings in twenty twenty-five are going to be very relaxed and they will allow movement. Men are really going to care about comfort more than style with back-to-back functions being the daily trend. This is why the very light-weight fabrics are the ones that are taking over the Men Traditional Wear world.
To give you a clearer picture of what is going to be in the fabrics, the list is as follows:
- Cotton silk
- Modal
- Linen blends
- Light jacquard
- Breathable viscose
- Muslin silk
These fabrics are the ones that make your outfit breathable even if you are one of the lucky ones who gets to be part of the longest celebration. We have been giving comfort the topmost priority in all our collections from kurtas to sherwanis as we want our customers to participate in every moment without feeling like they are under a burden.
8. Accessories That Elevate the Look
There was a time when accessories weren’t given much consideration. However, in 2025, men are not only accepting but also experimenting with jewellery and other styling elements that had been solely for brides. More tradition-driven styles with men's traditional wear include Safa broach, layered mala, embroidered mojris, and textured small in a pocket square.
For grooms, sherwanis with bold buttons, pocket chains, and different color stoles are getting more and more attention. Trends for kurta sets are mojaris with subtle embroidery or criss-cross straps.
At Sanwara, we take our customers by the hand and help them to match the right accessories so that every outfit looks both unified and majestic.
