Rise of the Hindustani Super Nari and Her Swadesi Outfits

Indian women have a unique opportunity to redefine workplace fashion by embracing ethnic Indian clothing.

As India continues to grow as a global superpower, this shift celebrates cultural heritage, and asserts modern Indian pride. By choosing ethnic wear, Indian women can make a powerful statement about their identity and contribute to a broader narrative of cultural and economic strength.  Embracing ethnic attire at work is not just about fashion; it’s about acknowledging and showcasing the beauty of India’s rich traditions while confidently stepping into the future.

In today's globalized world, fashion has become a powerful means of self-expression, blending cultures and styles from around the world. Amidst this fusion, there's a compelling case for Indian women to embrace ethnic wear, especially in professional settings.  

The S.W.A.D.E.S Style, Truly Indic Fashion, is at the forefront of a fashion revolution that celebrates the rich cultural heritage of India while embracing contemporary trends.  “We must stop aping the west and demonstrate pride in conventional designs and methods”, says Pavithra, founder of The S.W.A.D.E.S Style, Truly Indic Fashion Embracing Cultural Heritage.

Wearing ethnic Indian dresses to work is a celebration of India's rich cultural heritage. Each piece of ethnic wear, be it a saree, salwar suit, or kurti, tells a story of tradition, craftsmanship, and artistry. By incorporating these garments into your work wardrobe, you showcase a piece of history and artistry that is uniquely Indian. This cultural pride not only enhances personal identity but also fosters a deeper connection with one's roots, creating a sense of belonging and confidence.  The S.W.A.D.E.S Style, Truly Indic Fashion, incorporated under the legal name of Mystique Fashions is a Startup India registered entity producing handmade accessories besides ethnic Indian garments for women.  

Unmatched Elegance and Sophistication
The luxurious fabrics and meticulous embroidery work create an aura of sophistication that stands out in any professional environment. When you walk into a meeting in a well-tailored salwar suit or a beautifully draped saree, you make a powerful statement about your style and confidence.

Take Radhika Gupta, CEO of Edelweiss Mutual Fund, for example. Her beautifully draped sarees, often adorned with vibrant colours and traditional prints, exude a blend of grace and professionalism. Gupta’s choice of attire is not just about fashion; it sends out a message of cultural pride and executive presence.

Similarly, Shikha Sharma, the former Managing Director of Axis Bank, has been known to favour elegant silk sarees and sophisticated salwar suits for high-profile corporate events. Sharma's attire reflects a perfect harmony of tradition and modernity, making her stand out in the corporate world.

Empowering Women
The S.W.A.D.E.S Style aims to empower women by providing them with clothing that reflects their cultural identity and personal style while being suitable for professional settings. When human beings feel connected to their roots, they often exude a natural confidence that can enhance their performance and presence in professional settings.

"Embracing Indian ethnic wear in professional settings is not just a fashion choice, but a celebration of our rich cultural heritage and an assertion of modern Indian pride," says Shivangi Goel, Founder of SOCH NGO.

Unique Fashion Statement 
In a sea of western business suits, ethnic wear stands out as a unique and distinctive fashion choice. This differentiation can create a memorable and positive impression, reinforcing the wearer’s individuality and confidence.

Instead of using animal-harmed products, why not consider cotton based, handmade products?  The S.W.A.D.E.S Style manufactures and sells beautiful handmade purses, handbags and pouches that look unique, sustainable and ethical besides the added advantage of jobs that it creates for women in the unorganized sector.  A quick glance on the web suggests their products are available on Amazon, Flipkart and their own website.  They also engage with customers on their Facebook page and what’s app account.

Asserting Independence 
Adopting ethnic wear is a statement of independence and pride in one’s national identity. It signifies a break from colonial influences and an assertion of India’s rich cultural heritage in a modern context.  As India rises as a superpower, showcasing traditional attire in international forums and workplaces helps promote Indian culture globally. It positions India as a nation proud of its heritage and influential in setting global cultural trends.

Incorporating ethnic Indian dresses into your work wardrobe is more than just a fashion choice; it is a celebration of culture, elegance, and individuality. The unmatched sophistication, comfort, and versatility of ethnic wear make it an ideal choice for the modern Indian woman who wants to make a statement while honouring her heritage. As the lines between traditional and contemporary fashion continue to blur, there's never been a better time to embrace the beauty and style of ethnic Indian dresses in the workplace. So, the next time you ponder over what to wear to work, consider the timeless appeal of ethnic Indian attire and let your style shine through with pride.
