With the mercury rising, comfort clothes is no doubt the need of the season. It's best to stuff those skinny jeans and leggings at the back shelves of your wardrobe and welcome in clothes that let your body breathe. Even when it comes to ethnic wear, you can beat the heat in summer friendly designs and look as fresh as a daisy. Need proof? Take a look at our Bollywood celebrities who have been making it a super stylish summer by sporting easy-breezy outfits. If one were to name a designer whose ethnic summer collection is clearly ruling the summer style charts, it has got to be Anita Dongre.
The ace fashion designer needs no introduction. Her summer collection - Songs of Summer - is definitely proving to be a soothing vision this season with pastel colours coming together beautifully with delicate hand embroidery or quirky prints.
Before we move on to see Anita Dongre's collection, here's a throwback to Neha Dhupia's beautiful wedding lehenga that was one of her creations. With blush pink as the base colour, it made us no longer dread summer weddings and instead turn it into a stylish affair.
For another Bollywood wedding celebration - Sonam Kapoor with Anand Ahuja - we saw Kareena Kapoor Khan looking radiant in an Anita Dongre, pastel pink kalidar suit with intricate threadwork. Kareena had teamed it with statement earrings while keeping rest of her look simple.
Alia Bhatt has been giving a serious style update to her desi summer wardrobe. During the promotional events of her movie Raazi, we spotted the actress in trendsetting summer designs, of course a favourite being Anita Dongre's creations.
Then there was Priyanka Chopra looking classy as ever in a block printed cotton suit by Anita Dongre.
Aditi Rao Hydari, Manushi Chhillar and Diya Mirza have been making us fall in love with light summer pastels and motifs inspired by nature.
