With the different customs and traditions present in India, festivals that celebrate religions and culture traits are aplenty. Naturally, one has to look his or her best for these festivals. The components of Indian fashion are mainly shararas, saris, choli-ghagra, and salwar suits. Clothing that have fused Indian and Western styles are also popular.

Regardless of caste or religion barriers, urban areas in India have people who love to have fun during these festivals. Shops and malls are decked with red and green items as Christmas draws near, even if there are relatively few Christians in the country. Winter collections and New Year sales are also a common feature of the holidays, although they are held much earlier. Fashion design is a healthy industry, with each year witnessing a new batch of brands and designers. Launching accessories and footwear is a relatively new concept, but one that the Indian people willingly embrace.

Raksha Bandhan heralds unique displays of materials and clothes available for everyone. Clothing geared to kids and the youth are interesting because of its fusion themes. This occasion is also a great time to give gifts, thus saris and dress materials are designed with blending patterns and embellishments.

Holi features cream and white shades. Dupatta with flowery embroidery and white odhinis are ideal for joining in with the festivities. Sankrath gives way to black or dark-hued clothes. Durga Puja and Navatri seasons are also very generous in giving way to various styles and trends. Fusion patterns can be seen in backless cholis, tank tops, and even in traditional bandhni made of cotton and silk. Men's wear are also designed with mirror-worked jackets and topis embellished with shells. Diwali features dazzling designs because it is a very festive season. The Id festivals feature pieces made with Kashmiri silks, as well as satin suits. Artisans and fashion designers are busy designing veils, burrga, and a wide variety of handkerchiefs, socks, and cotton gloves.

Aside from pop culture, seasons can also have a very large impact on the fashion industry. Fashion statements are made with expert blending of traditional and modern, creating outfits that are festive and unique.
