Mix 'n' match if you want to stand out in a crowd: balaji stylist gives mid day readers style tips

Tradition is adulterated at Balaji's Navratri
"No one wants to adhere exclusively to tradition, these days, complains Neem Sood, stylist for all of Ekta Kapoor's TV serials. "This year, Navratri fashion will see a blend of modernity and tradition. It's all about mix 'n' match," says Neem, the woman known for setting fashion trends among avid soap watchers. Fusion style will feature in a big way on Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi's on-screen Navratri celebrations. "Since most members from the current cast are youngsters, I thought they could carry off a blend of Indian and Western influences."

What Kyunki's cast will wear

Actor Rakshanda Kha

Women
Corsets with gypsy skirts
Oxidised silver jewellery
Dozens of colourful bangles
