The Bengali new year is right around the corner. It is one of the most festive days in the Bengali calendar. Everyone dresses up and celebrates the day in full swing. No matter where you look you’ll see the colors red and white in beautiful harmony. Whether you go to attend the Arts Faculty’s prestigious new years parade or just a simple hangout with friends and family, dressing up for the occasion won’t hurt. So here are some ways you can style your outfits for the festival. 

For this particular festival, the major color profiles for the day are red and white. Most people are seen to dress up in this beautiful combination. However, over time new ideas came in terms of colors schemes. Pink, green, yellow, etc. were incorporated on a bed of a white saree. You’ll see these combinations in kameezes and Kurtis as well.
