The gallery’s inaugural exhibition, EXHIBITIONISM, brings together 19 South Asian artists whose works explore themes of visibility, intimacy and identity. But beyond its role as an exhibition space, Menon sees the gallery as part of a broader cultural moment. “Indian Americans and wider South Asian Americans are culturally coming of age,” he explains. “We’ve only really been able to immigrate in large numbers since 1965 and are now starting to enter positions of leadership—not just in medicine and law, but in politics, Silicon Valley, tech and Hollywood.” This shift, he argues, has created a new kind of cultural confidence—one where South Asians are no longer proving their belonging but actively shaping mainstream narratives.

Menon’s vision extends beyond simply exhibiting South Asian artists. His goal is to foster a community that connects artists with collectors, cultural institutions and, crucially, each other. “I think what art has done is provide completely new approaches to representation,” he shares. “Rather than wanting to recreate our culture with pure accuracy or familiarity, artists are constantly showing us things we’ve never seen before. That sense of possibility and imagination is so exciting among this community.” While South Asian culture has long been celebrated in literature, fashion and film, contemporary visual art has often been left out of the conversation—something Menon is determined to change. “In LA, you can see art from Sub-Saharan Africa, the Middle East and East Asia, but no one was really speaking to South Asia. And yet, the audience’s palette was already fundamentally global.”

Handlooms, once constricted to forlorn exhibitions and conferences, have thawed out of their geriatric status. Now, Bhumi Pednekar is giving Madras checks, the Indian rendition of plaid, the cool-girl rebrand. Recently, Bhumi Pednekar wore a multi-colour drape by Raw Mango for a promotional outing of her latest film Mere Husband Ki Biwi.

“Bhumi is wearing our Agama ‘Satpura’ silk sari that features woven multicoloured Madras checks in rani pink, lime and emerald green, and a lime palla. Her sari is paired with a Gulshan satin silk blouse in emerald green, which is gathered at the shoulders and the centre of the bust and the back,” shares designer Sanjay Garg of Raw Mango.

Woven by hand and mostly in cotton, Madras checks emerged from sleepy fishing villages along India’s East coast. The fabric is characterised by its thick and thin patterns and eye-catching colours. Often constructed as functional lungis, Madras checks were the local artisans’ answer to Madras’ humidity.

It’s not every day that you hear about a designer melting down her heirloom gold to create a high jewellery collection… for other people to own. But that’s exactly what Suhani Parekh of MISHO did with JAIPUR, her first foray into high jewellery.

Inspiration struck late one night when Parekh was visiting the Pink City. Walking past a massive gate at the City Palace, she stopped in her tracks. “There’s something about a gate,” she says. “It’s more than just an entrance—it’s a threshold, a space between two worlds.” This rings especially true for the gates that separate the old city from the new. Having visited multiple times before, it wasn’t until a recent trip that the significance of these gates sparked the idea for this 16-piece exclusive collection. Jaipur is a city that ignites creativity in every eye that beholds it. Every corner offers something—a shadow, a mosaic, a sliver of gold—but how does one do it justice?

For Parekh, the answer lay in deconstruction. She took gold from her personal collection—“You know how gold is passed down through generations—from little trinkets, gold coins to heirlooms—pieces that are often never really used,” she says. “I wanted to deconstruct them and reimagine them in a way that resonates with my design sensibilities today,” she explains. Parekh uses 18K S.M.O gold alongside the repurposed gold. What is S.M.O gold exactly? Single Mine Origin gold is a new global standard that ensures it is responsibly sourced and fully traceable to a single mine.

This collection marks almost a double debut for MISHO—its first foray into high jewellery and a leap into the world of gemstones and vibrant colours. “Illustrating Jaipur without colour would be a terrible injustice,” she says. The collection deliberately broadens MISHO’s material palette, forging a stronger connection to the culture that inspired it, while pushing the boundaries of the brand’s design language.

Lotus pink sapphire pendant

The deep blues of the Peacock Gate inspired the usage of rich sapphires. The greens and pinks of the Lotus and Leheriya Gates are captured through pink sapphires and varying shades of emeralds. The Winter Gate’s rose motifs naturally led to glowing rubies. Each stone tells a story, much like the city itself.

Sourced from Jaipur’s legendary Johri Bazaar, the gemstones in JAIPUR further tie the collection to the city’s rich history and craftsmanship. Parekh has also worked on re-imagining traditional techniques, like meenakari enamelling and intricate pearl detailing, for this collection. For example, instead of using pearls in their usual form, she incorporates them in unexpected ways, as accentuating details. “I wanted to design it in a way that the strung pearls enhance the sculptural nature of the jewellery,” she explains.

The collaborative collection between MISHO and Princess Gauravi Kumari is more than just an artistic pursuit—it also supports the Princess Diya Kumari Foundation, an initiative dedicated to empowering women artisans across Rajasthan. “It felt like a natural synergy,” Parekh notes. The cities that designers encounter often become a rich source of inspiration—their architecture, culture, history, and vibrant atmosphere leave a lasting imprint. Jaipur, in particular, provided a wealth of ideas for this collection and the goal was to honor the city’s spirit and the people who contributed to shaping the collection. The PDFK foundation works to ensure traditional crafts thrive in contemporary contexts, a cause close to both Parekh and Gauravi Kumari, Diya’s daughter and current face of the foundation. A portion of the proceeds from JAIPUR will be donated to the foundation, and a jewellery bag charm inspired by Jaipur will also be available for purchase, with all proceeds benefiting the foundation.

Parekh has known Gauravi for about three years. Funnily enough, they were already familiar with each other’s brands before they even met— Gauravi was a MISHO customer, and Parekh had been shopping at PDFK. When they finally crossed paths, the connection was instant, but it wasn’t until MISHO’s take on heritage jewellery caught Gauravi’s eye that the idea of collaborating truly felt right. “It’s amazing to see elements of the palace, elements which have adorned the space for years, through a different perspective. I am particularly in love with the attention to detail and the exquisite craftsmanship in each piece,” she notes.

Emerald Diamond Door Earrings

No collection is truly complete without a piece that steals the spotlight. For Gauravi, those pieces are the Emerald Diamond Door Earrings and the Emerald Diamond Earcuff. “The gate is one of the most iconic features of the City Palace,” she reflects. “It’s thrilling to see it reimagined in a way that blends both the contemporary and the timeless.” Parekh, however, finds it hard to choose just one standout piece—she jokes that she ideally wants to leave every piece of the collection to her daughter, Veya. But the door-shaped earrings do hold a special place in her heart. “They’re like tiny portals,” she smiles. “Step through them, and you might find yourself in a whole new world.”

MISHO JAIPUR will launch on February 27 and will be available exclusively by appointment at their Mumbai studio.

How to explore Jaipur beyond the tourist traps

It all began with an Instagram request in 2017—surprisingly, one that wasn’t ignored. “I never accept requests from strangers,” says Hridi Narang, founder of Guru Om Candles & Decor, who made an exception for singer-songwriter Anuv Jain. How millennial, for a singer whose music traces the modern-day complexities of dating. This digital connection, sparked by Jain’s song ‘Baarishein’, was a slow burn, taking five years to transform. Their platonic friendship evolved into love and culminated in a three-day wedding celebration this February.

Their first encounter was brief—a five-minute meeting at Jain’s Delhi show in February 2021—but it was a routine phone call in 2022 that changed everything. “When she shared, in passing, that she was single, I couldn’t have ignored that as I always found her beautiful,” Jain recalls. “I stopped everything else I was doing as this was my window to shoot my shot.” He surprised Narang with a spontaneous trip to Delhi for Valentine’s Day dinner, even bringing her a box of her favourite Kookie Jar boat pastry from Kolkata. Despite a series of comical mishaps—fully booked restaurants and a wrong pizza order—the date became a pivotal moment. “Even though it was like a very bad date, because we just couldn’t find a place to sit, we still had a great time,” Jain explains.

The immediate connection solidified their feelings. “We spoke about everything. And I was like, yes, this is the guy I want to be with,” Narang shares. The unplanned Valentine’s Day date, which extended into the 15th, became a significant marker in their relationship. “We were a bit poetic with that because that date was on the 14th of February. We didn’t plan a Valentine’s Day, but it just happened to be that day,” Jain adds. “So after three years, we kept it the same way. The 14th was for some of our functions and the 15th, we actually got married.”

The celebrations were intimate and personalised. “We wanted a close-knit and cosy wedding full of family and friends,” shares Narang. Working with Karma Events, as they designed each function with meticulous attention to detail.

Highlights from the mehendi function included carnival games like balloon shooting, ring toss and beer pong to add nostalgic touches from their childhood and early twenties. Narang chose a vibrant Mayyur Girotra fiery red gharara and teamed it with a traditional parandi, complementing the festive Punjab-meets-carnival theme. “We wanted each look to be completely different, yet authentic to us,” explains Narang. Jain opted for a cropped contemporary jacket by the same designer, layered over a sleek black kurta and pathani salwar.

Fashion mood boards took on two distinct approaches recently—ornate tradition and contemporary statements. Where stars like Kareena Kapoor Khan and Katrina Kaif turned to intricate craftsmanship for festive dressing, Kylie Jenner, Mindy Kaling, and Sydney Sweeney delivered black-tie glamour with standout red carpet moments.

Kareena Kapoor Khan knows how to borrow from bridal collections without stealing the spotlight. For her cousin Aadar Jain’s wedding, she skipped the expected lehenga in favour of a breezy inky-blue Sabyasachi kaftan from the designer’s 2023 ‘Heritage Bridal’ collection. The look, rooted in old-world craftsmanship featured botanical prints inspired by Sundarbans mangroves, gold zardozi panels, and subtle sequin detailing.

If you follow Katrina Kaif’s fashion trajectory, you know her penchant for pastels and saris—and her latest look was no exception. For the premiere of her husband Vicky Kaushal’s latest release, she draped herself in a whimsical Anita Dongre sari in powder blue, featuring delicate floral embroidery, subtle green sequin accents, and a scalloped pallu that added to its romantic appeal. Paired with a tonal blouse boasting a sweetheart neckline and tassel details when put together make for an effortless choice for bridesmaids or daytime weddings.

Small but mighty, the best eyeshadow sticks have a lot going for them: They’re easy to apply, versatile, beginner-friendly, and efficient. “What’s not to love about an eyeshadow stick?” says Mali Thomas, global artist in residence at Bobbi Brown Cosmetics.

While mastering a perfect cut crease or a multi-shadow smokey eye requires plenty of practice, eyeshadow sticks require no honed skills—nor any extra tools to achieve great results. Whether you’re a beauty novice or a seasoned expert, simply glide on your favorite eyeshadow stick, blend the edges with your finger, and go on with your day. Bobbi Brown’s global artistic director, Hannah Murray, agrees that eyeshadow sticks are ideal for portability. “They’re great on the go—no need for a makeup bag filled with eyeshadow palettes and brushes; just throw in a couple of sticks, and you’re all set,” Murray tells Vogue.

Even better, both beauty minimalists and maximalists can find suitable shades to incorporate in their routines. But both pros emphasize that there are no limits when it comes to experimenting with eyeshadow sticks. With no hard and fast rules, anyone should feel free to explore different colors and pigments. On one hand, you can select an eyeshadow stick based on your skin tone or eye color. “For example, if you have warm, rich undertones, I recommend using bronze and gold shades. For someone with green eyes, I prefer shades that contrast, like pink, purple, or brown,” Thomas says. Alternatively, you can pick up a few shades for different occasions. Murray suggests shimmering shades for those looking to update their makeup bag, as they can offer a subtle glisten during the day and be intensified for a smokey eye at night. (Another pro tip from Murray: “Use them to create a base for other eyeshadows and pigments, as a wash of color on the eyelid, or to line the eyes and smudge for more drama.”)

What is an eyeshadow stick?

Professional makeup artist Colby Smith encourages us to think of eyeshadow sticks as cream shadows in pencil form. “It’s essentially a jumbo eyeliner,” Smith says.

This seven-member boy band has taken the world by storm and are definitely the biggest name in K-pop. BTS have performed sell-out arena shows across the US and UK, have achieved two No. 1 albums in the US, boast 16 million monthly listeners on Spotify, have sold 16 million albums (Map of Soul is the best-selling album in Korean history), and were the best-selling artist to debut in the 2010s. According to the IFPI’s Global Artist Chart, BTS were the second best-selling artists of 2018 (behind Drake), as well as the only non-English speaking artist to enter the chart. The seven members are rappers Suga, RM and J-hope, and vocalists Jimin, V, Jin and Jungkook.

In August 2020, BTS released the track ‘Dynamite’, their first song entirely in English, which topped the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart and stayed there for three whole weeks. It was the band’s first No.1 single in the US and made BTS the first all-South Korean act to top the Hot 100. Shortly after, they became the first K-pop musicians to receive a Grammy nomination, with ‘Dynamite’ up for ‘Best Pop Duo/Group Performance’.

Fast forward to the 2021 American Music Awards, and the group has received their biggest accolade to date, winning Artist of the Year (the biggest award of the night) and making history as the first Asian act to win the category. Oh, and they also took home the gong for Favourite Pop Duo or Group for the third year in a row, plus an extra win with their track ‘Butter’ winning Favourite Pop Song.

In October 2022, their Korean management company confirmed they would start their country’s mandatory military service, and they aim to reconvene as a group in 2025.

If you’re still in the chilly North of India, then this rustic jacket by couturier Ritu Kumar will never go out of style.

This look is for your inner maximalist.

Weddings are all about love, joy, and creating memories that last a lifetime. As a groom, one of the most significant decisions you’ll make for your big day is choosing your Sherwani for Men. The Sherwani for Groom is no ordinary outfit. It represents your style and your culture, and most importantly, it sets the tone for your wedding day. But, when it comes to picking the perfect colour, things can get a bit tricky. There’s a sea of shades to choose from—each with its flair and statement.

At Nihal Fashions, we understand that selecting the right colour for your sherwani is more than just about aesthetics; it’s about reflecting your personality, complementing the bride’s attire, and making sure you look your absolute best. So, let’s dive into the ultimate groom’s guide to choosing the right colour for your sherwani.

1. Classic White or Ivory Sherwani: Timeless and Elegant

When in doubt, you can never go wrong with a classic white or ivory Sherwani for Groom. These colours are timeless and exude sophistication. White or ivory sherwanis are a symbol of purity, grace, and elegance. They make for the perfect choice for grooms looking for a traditional yet contemporary look.

Opt for delicate embroidery in gold, silver, or even muted tones to keep the ensemble looking fresh and not too plain. White sherwanis also have a versatility that allows them to be styled for different types of weddings, from the most traditional to modern affairs. Whether you’re having a royal wedding or a beach ceremony, this colour never fails to impress.

Tip: Pair it with a soft-toned turban or a contrasting stole to add a pop of colour and make the look more dynamic.

2. Royal Gold or Beige: Luxurious and Regal

For grooms who want to channel their inner royalty, gold or beige is a perfect choice. These colours scream luxury, opulence, and sophistication. Sherwanis for men in shades of gold or beige work beautifully for grand weddings. The rich texture of the fabric combined with the golden hues enhances the groom’s appearance, making him the true king of the day.

Gold-coloured sherwanis come in various shades—ranging from bright yellow gold to muted matte finishes. It’s up to you to choose the tone that best matches your skin tone and the overall theme of your wedding. Beige, on the other hand, is a more neutral option that pairs perfectly with intricate gold or silver embroidery for a clean, refined look.

Tip: For a more modern touch, you can add a contemporary twist with a matching kurta or churidar underneath the sherwani. Pair this outfit with elegant juttis or brogues to complete the look.

3. Bold Red or Maroon: The Traditional Groom’s Choice

When it comes to wedding outfits, nothing says “traditional groom” quite like red or maroon. These colours are an embodiment of passion, love, and celebration. Sherwani for Groom in rich, deep shades of red and maroon are symbolic of vitality and strength, making them perfect for a groom who wants to make a bold statement on his wedding day.

Both maroon and red are versatile enough to work for both day and evening weddings. Maroon is slightly muted, offering a regal yet understated vibe, while red is more vibrant and energetic. When combined with gold, silver, or ivory embroidery, these colours pop beautifully and create a perfect harmony of tradition and elegance.

Tip: If you’re not comfortable with a full red or maroon ensemble, try incorporating these colours in accents like your dupatta or pocket square for a subtle touch of boldness.

4. Soft Pastels: For the Gentle and Modern Groom

Gone are the days when grooms were restricted to traditional reds, golds, and whites. In recent years, pastel-coloured sherwanis for men have gained a lot of popularity. Soft hues like mint green, baby blue, light pink, and peach bring a refreshing and contemporary vibe to the wedding attire, offering a perfect balance of style and elegance.

Pastels are ideal for outdoor weddings or beachside ceremonies, as they complement the natural surroundings while making the groom look effortlessly chic. If you’re looking for something a little different but still want to stay on the traditional side, pastels are the way to go.

Tip: Pastels pair well with subtle embroidery, especially in silver or white, to keep the look light and airy. Consider adding a floral or geometric print for a modern edge.

5. Navy Blue or Dark Blue: A Contemporary Twist on Tradition

Navy blue and dark blue sherwanis are rapidly becoming the go-to choice for grooms who want something modern yet rooted in tradition. These shades are bold but not overwhelming, offering a refreshing take on classic wedding attire. Navy blue is often associated with confidence, intelligence, and style, making it a perfect fit for a groom who wants to shine without being too flashy.

Sherwani for Groom in dark blue hues look incredibly sleek and sophisticated, especially when paired with silver or gold accents. Navy is also versatile, and it looks just as striking in a day ceremony as it does in an evening event. It’s a colour that stands out without stealing the spotlight from the bride.

Tip: Go for a double-breasted sherwani or add a patterned stole to enhance the overall look and give it a touch of flair.

6. Black Sherwani: Bold, Modern, and Timeless

Although black isn’t a traditional wedding colour in many cultures, it has gained significant popularity in modern weddings, especially for grooms. A black Sherwani for Men is sleek, stylish, and effortlessly chic. This colour makes a statement—perfect for grooms who aren’t afraid to embrace modern trends.

A black sherwani paired with metallic or contrasting embroidery can exude sophistication, adding a contemporary twist to your wedding. Black is timeless, easy to accessorize, and undeniably sharp.

Tip: Pair a black sherwani with a matching black turban or an ivory one to create an intriguing contrast. Finish with statement jewellery to add a royal touch.

7. Emerald Green: A Bold and Luxurious Choice

Emerald green is a stunning colour that’s rapidly gaining traction in weddings. It combines the richness of traditional colours like gold and maroon with the boldness of modern fashion. The colour exudes elegance, and its deep shade looks incredibly regal and fresh. Sherwanis for groom in emerald green is ideal for evening weddings or celebrations held in grand venues.

This colour is rich in symbolism, representing renewal and hope, making it an excellent choice for your wedding day. Pair it with gold or cream embroidery for a dynamic and eye-catching look.

Tip: If you’re looking to go all out, try incorporating emerald accents in your wedding accessories like your shoes or pocket square to keep the theme consistent.

8. How to Coordinate with Your Bride

Choosing the right Sherwani for Groom colour also means considering how it complements your bride’s outfit. If your bride is wearing a traditional red or maroon lehenga, a neutral-coloured sherwani like beige or gold can provide a striking contrast. Alternatively, if she’s opting for a pastel-themed outfit, you can choose a pastel-coloured sherwani for a cohesive look.

Tip: Talk to your bride and wedding planner to ensure your colours complement each other. You don’t want your outfit to outshine hers, but you still want to look coordinated and stylish.

Conclusion

Choosing the right colour for your Sherwani for Groom is a significant decision that will define your wedding day look. From classic whites and ivories to bold maroons and modern pastels, there’s a world of colour options waiting for you. The key is to stay true to your style, coordinate with your bride, and most importantly, feel confident and comfortable in your choice.At Nihal Fashions, we have a wide range of beautiful Indian Outfits that cater to every groom’s taste.
