1.Consider the weather
If you are traveling to India for work or simply just to explore, it is best to pay attention to the type of weather that you are likely to find in India. The country is generally warm, as compared to places like London or Wales. You thus need to purchase clothing that you can be comfortable in given the heat, but be careful not to be too underdressed. If you are, however, not traveling to India but would love to try out some of their incredible fashion, then the same case applies to you. Go for clothing that you will be okay in, regardless of the weather that you experience in the area you are at.
2.Do some research
Just like all cultures, Indian culture has specific clothes for different occasions. When traveling to India it is thus important to do some research and identify exactly what can be worn in a particular place. For instance, when people are going to their places of worship they tend to cover their heads or leave their shoes at the door. Have a scarf with you for such. If you are attending a vibrant or fun occasion like a wedding, then you may want to consider purchasing a saree, which is appropriate for such occasions. Doing this kind of research will ensure that you accord the respect that their culture deserves. It will also ensure that you do not awkwardly stand out or draw uncomfortable stares.
3.Be comfortable
This is one rule that everybody needs to follow whenever they are getting some new clothes or shoes. The idea is to always make sure that you are comfortable in what you are wearing, and that it is easy to move around in. This is important as it will determine the amount of confidence that you have on that day. Comfort will ensure you are not worrying too much about how you look or whether it fits or not, which will grant you some boldness to do your tasks for the day with ease. This is especially something that you need to pay attention to if you have never worn Indian clothes before. It may feel like an uncharted area and you will thus tend to bit more nervous than you normally are. Wearing comfortable clothing will thus help you relax and be confident.
4.Get the right size
Ill-fitting clothing tends to make an individual appear significantly larger or smaller than they are, which, at times, can be problematic. It can hide a lady’s lovely figure or a man’s well-toned body. This is not to say, of course, that one dresses inappropriately, but a reminder to pay attention to the right size. In addition to being comfortable in what you are wearing, your clothing should also fit. Clothing that is either too large or too small will not be a good look and will damage your appearance, posture and even confidence by a large extent. You are likely to repeatedly shift around uncomfortably, sweat a lot or be cold due to ill-fitting clothing. Ensure that you try out every purchase that you intend to make to confirm that it fits well.
