Also, accessorising would not be a bad idea for men, especially when it comes to ethnic and fusion wear.
So, how about throwing in these options-a simple embroidered collar on a bandhgala jacket, a crushed silk stole, a brocade handkerchief, a classic brooch, pearl, silver or 'minakari' buttons and embroidered 'juttis'.
However, be wary of bling and glitter.
"Please avoid anything shiny. No bling for a man. It is quite passe to put on a stone-jewelled brooch on the left of your jacket or a gold or pearl necklace. And absolutely no shiny lines of lurex in the fabrics. Do not touch polyesters and acetates-they tend to cheapen even the best of designs," said Mehra.
No wonder then that it is best to stick to understated yet luxurious clothing in rich and dark tones. Follow fabrics such as velvets, silks and wool blends and opt for expensive cashmere wool garments if you want true luxury.
