How to rock a gharara for Eid like Mawra Hocane

Take inspiration from the actor with her modern take on the traditional ensemble

With Eidul Fitr just around the corner, it's time to rock traditional looks with family and friends.  And there are few things more ethnic than the gharara.

If you need a little inspiration, look no further than Sammi star Marwa Hocane and her love for the ensemble.

We love how the model plays around with bright colours and gives a modern twist to the wide-legged pajamas.  From fresh daytime looks that you might wear to a family lunch to striking evening attire that is sure to impress, Marwa has us covered for any occasion.

Let's take a look at some of our favourite gharara looks from the starlet.

We are obsessed with the all white combination.  The long white kurti looks perfect against the blush pink and gold dupatta.  Accessorise with silver rings and earrings for a summer day time look that is sure to impress.

The multi-coloured detailing and embroidery work on this ensemble is sure to turn heads if going for a lunch or dinner with friends this Eid.  We love how the star complimented to look with dainty gold bangles and loose, long hair.  Khussas are also a must for the festive occasion, bringing a whole new element to any outfit.  Marwa wrote on her Instagram post "I’m obsessed with ghararas & khussas all over again" - and we have to agree!

This Maria B stunner is an amazing choice for Eid dinner with family.  The outfit screams understated elegance and we love how the starlet has accessorised it with a matching dupatta.  The long, silver earrings jazz up the ensemble in all the right ways, as well as blue Hermes slides.

This look is surely a winner.  The fresh mint green shade is something that is sure to stand out at any fancy event.  Create an exquisite touch with gold detailing and a matching gold trimmed creme dupatta.  We love how Marwa creates a magical feel in this Élan ensemble and is a perfect tribute to the traditional gharara look!

Which style will you be fawning over for Eid this year?
