What to wear to an Indian office?

By Gazal Jain, Founder ·

Indian offices have their own world going on. The AC is set to arctic level and the commute outside feels like a sahara but in between that Your outfit has to survive both.

A kurti with straight pants is business casual in most Indian workplaces, and it suits our weather better than a lot of Western office wear. If your office is more corporate, a shirt dress or tailored trousers with a structured top works well.

Fabric makes a bigger difference than most people expect. Cotton, cotton flex, viscose and rayon crepe breathe far better than heavy polyester suiting. Colours like burgundy, navy, olive, mocha and cream look polished and hide a long day well.
