As the crescent moon marks the beginning of Eid, the atmosphere is infused with a mix of timeless traditions and the pulse of modernity. In 2025, men’s fashion takes center stage, merging classic elegance with contemporary edge. We’ve collaborated with top designers and fashion experts to present the ultimate guide to looking stylish this Eid.
The Revival of the Bandhgala
“This Eid, the bandhgala is reimagined—sharp, structured, and exuding effortless power,” says designer Saggar Mehra. Expect rich, deep hues, sculpted tailoring, and subtle yet intricate embroidery. Paired with tapered trousers or relaxed pleated pants, the bandhgala is all about statement restraint, where craftsmanship speaks louder than embellishment.
Back to Basics with a Twist
For those seeking a more relaxed yet festive look, designer Karrtik Dhingra recommends revisiting the basics with a modern twist. “Forget the heavy embroidered kurtas and instead, opt for fun short kurtas with drape details,” he suggests. Asymmetrical cuts and easy silhouettes make for the perfect attire for warm, comfortable family gatherings.
Tone-on-Tone Embroidery and Modern Cuts
Masumi Mewawalla highlights the trend of tone-on-tone embroidered kurtas paired with structured bundis or asymmetric angrakha-style kurtas. “We’ve experimented with muted ivory-on-ivory threadwork, embellished collars, and contemporary cuts that maintain tradition while moving away from the cliché,” she explains.
Timeless Elegance with a Modern Edge
Nitika Gujral embraces timeless style with a modern twist. “Nothing captures this fusion better than a classic black ensemble—powerful, poised, and forever elegant,” she says. The Black Kurta and Bundi Set by Histori by Amit Guiral is the epitome of understated luxury and effortless charm.
Modern Takes on Classic Eid Attire
Rizwan Shaikh of Nafs advises that Eid 2025 will blend tradition with contemporary flair. “Embrace the classic kurta but explore modern cuts or asymmetric hems,” he suggests. Fabrics like linen and light cotton will keep you comfortable while maintaining a sharp look. Adding a well-tailored jacket over a kurta is a stylish way to layer up.
Dhruv Sehgal, a men’s fashion designer, agrees with this shift toward modern takes on traditional Eid attire. “Luxurious, breathable fabrics like lightweight silk, brocade, and soft cottons will dominate, offering elegance and comfort for the warmer season,” he says. Expect bold, rich colors like emerald green, royal blue, and deep red, but also a rise in pastels and soft neutrals, introducing a more serene and fresh vibe.
