Likewise brides, grooms too need the best dressing tips for the very special D-day as its equally important for them too. The pre-wedding task most Grooms look forward to is choosing a dress. Don’t rush into anything. Get loads of inspiration and ideas from this information to choose your dream dress and please don’t forget to remember the color your dream girl is going to wear. But sometimes, it entirely depends upon your personal liking of colors and cuts. But you should gather up some information regarding your complexion and personality. Lots of dresses have zero hanger appeal, but look great once you put them on. Always go for customized dresses as they are made according to your physique and body structure.

For Fairer Groom:

Colors to wear: To look your best on your best day go for the colors which boost your skin tone like Shocking Pink, Chinese Blue, Bright White and Emerald Green.

Colors to avoid: To avoid looking washed out, fair skinned grooms should not go for Burnt Reds, Murky Blues, Orange Golds and Muddy Greens.

Styling tips: For fair skinned grooms, winter characteristics work well. Go for bright winter colors with deeper shades. This will balance the overall look and bring out the darkness of your hair and eyes.

Outfits: To match the contemporary fusional look of your bride, incorporate the colors into your sherwani like using them into your embroidery. Bright white is the best suited color as it boosts your skin tone and on this you can play with any color for your embroidery.

For Medium Tanned Grooms:

Colors to wear: If you are medium tanned then go for colors like Oyster White, Coffee Brown, Bittersweet Red and Old Gold.   

Colors to avoid: For your golden brown complexion, don’t go for colors that are blue based and bright or those that are of a much cooler shade.

Styling Tips: Classic autumn palettes with more softer and earthy shades are more suited to your moderate brown tone complexion. You can add a deep yellow with muted qualities; this will accentuate the facial features particularly the eyes.

Outfits: An oyster white sherwani will boost your skin tone and will add a traditional look to your personality. Go for soft natural colors and mould them with accent colors like bittersweet red for the embroidery. The brocade embroidery in colors like antique gold and dark tomato will highlight your complexion.

For Darker Grooms:

Colors to wear: If you are blessed with the dusky complexion then go for colors like Bright White, Icy Green, Icy Violet and True Blue.

Colors to avoid: Don’t go for the colors like Orangey-Red, Rusted Golds, Moss Greens, Teals and Mocha Browns.

Styling Tips: The darker skinned are particularly blessed and can carry off any color from icy blue shades to bright winter hues. Dark colors do work if you add a contrasting brightness to balance the skin tone and eyes.

Outfits: One can go for a sherwani which suits the dusky complexion like Rusted Gold. When paired with your bride, this will look awesome as it draws a striking contrast.
