Do you remember how Kajol reflected simplicity and elegance in a fire-brick coloured saree with embroidery on her blouse in the film, Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge for Karwa Chauth? Or her maroon and beige coloured heavily embroidered lehenga in Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham...? Or Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s lavender-coloured net lehenga in Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam? With Karwa Chauth 2021 just a few days away and it being extra-special for the newly-weds, who will be celebrating the festival for the first time, it is high time for them to put their thinking caps on and pick the best outfit for the day!

Gone are the days when the newlyweds used to wear their wedding lehengas and heavily embroidered sarees for Karwa Chauth. Time to bid adieu to the monotonous outfits and switch on the fusion and experimental side of yourself. While it is truly said that beauty lies in the eye of the beholder, plus-sized girls have often expressed how societal pressure has governed them for being ‘fat’. There is no ‘perfect’ body and there will never be. Being fat doesn’t take away fashion and style from you, it rather paves way for more. And this Karwa Chauth, the plus-sized newly-brides can break the norms and flaunt their experimental fashion that will make them look more breathtaking than the moon!
