Kurta for Women – Shop Online for all Occasions & Seasons Today!

The origins of the humble kurta are rooted in comfort and utility rather than fashion. And yet the wardrobe staple has managed to stay relevant all this while due to one factor - adaptability. Go back just a few decades and you’ll still find iterations of this garment with different fabrics, necklines, lengths, sleeves, embroidery, and prints, all raging trends of their time. No wonder it has managed to mould itself and shine through the fashion eras despite its modest nature. In fact, ladies kurtas are wardrobe must-haves for every modern Indian woman. Starting from a casual kurta that is light and breezy a work-wear staple kurta that is sober, stiff, and exudes confidence, and a festive kurta that is heavy on embellishments, emanating grandeur, there is a type of ladies kurta that is perfect for every occassion.

That being said, ethnic wear lover or not, just about anyone would find something they’ll love and cherish for years to come from our Ancestry collection of designer kurtas for women. For one, we have a range of styles that will allure even the most fastidious fashion tastes, and two, because we also offer a range of sizes. Our pieces will always fit with your distinct style like butter on toast.

The subtle royalty and quality of fabric of a solid kurta exudes elegance and makes it stand out. So if you have an eye for pretty details, one of our solid kurtas like the Pinto Lemon Kurti with sheer organza sleeve details or our Flower Fete Kurta embellished with delicate embroidery on the yoke are sure to catch your eye.

Pre-up Daily with the Printed Kurta Styles

No list of kurta for women is complete without mentioning the print kurta. At Ancestry, we play with fabrics, motifs, cuts, and textures. If you’re on the lookout for one with geometric patterns, you can check out our Bigwig Kurta. This viscose kurta is naturally dyed and adorned all over with Ajrak motifs. Fancy a more contemporary print instead? The White Rose Printed Kurta may be the perfect match for you! This again has an all-over floral print that complements the dusky peach fabric, along with sequin details around the sleeve and neckline, adding a dash of quiet glam.

If you’re the modern Indian woman who’s all about unique cuts and drapes, the winter-toned Ajrak Kurta from our collection is sure to allure you. Being a front open ladies kurta, this piece is all about comfort. Its uniqueness lies in its asymmetric hem and textured Ajrak prints, a finish we could achieve thanks to the sturdy cotton dobby fabric. What’s more, it doesn’t skimp on details. It has cuffed sleeves, a collared neckline, and even comes with wooden buttons around the yoke and the cuff.

Of course, this isn’t the end of our love affair with prints, for we have a range of other beautifully crafted tunics on our shop. So, don’t forget to visit our online store to buy kurta online that best complements your personal style.

Explore the Collection of Embroidered Kurta

Lovers of handiwork have a penchant for delicate embroidery on their ladies kurta. At Ancestry, we have a collection of chic embroidered kurtas designed keeping in mind the modern Indian woman. The Abaya White Kurti from our collection, for instance, has floral embroidery along the neckline and the front that gives oomph to the modern silhouette of the piece. While in our Olive Short Kurta, the floral embroidery adds a pop of color to the otherwise elegant cotton silk chanderi tunic.

Our collection also has pieces that include zari embroidery like the Marigold Embroidered Cotton Kurta and the Sheen Wrap Kurta. Both these pieces feature intricate zariwork details on the summer-coloured chevron weave and chanderi fabric, adding a hint of festive cheer.

Style-Up with Ancestry Contemporary Ethnic Wear

At Ancestry, we understand finding your distinct style is a journey. So, if you aren’t there yet (or you’re unsure about how to pair pieces), here are some ideas to help you out.

1. Casual Pairings

Nailing the casual look is about striking a balance between style and comfort. So, pair a short kurta like our Linen Classic Blouse, Jaipuri Kurti, or the Aaina Classic Kurti with a pair of trusty jeans or relaxed trousers. While denim bottoms go with tunics of any colour, remember to pair bottoms of only the same colour at all other times. If you want to take your style up a notch, wear contrasting fits! A structured, well-fitted kurta looks sporty with a pair of oversized pants or jeans, while a looser-fitting ladies kurta works well with a pair of tailored trousers.

2. Office wear Pairings

Office wear rules can be limiting, but with Ancestry, you never have to compromise on your style. A office look could easily feature many of our pieces. The White Shirt Kurta in schiffli cotton with bead embellishments makes an easy addition to your closet, given you could pair it with bottoms of any colour. Our Light Blue Work Ready Kurta, on the other hand, when paired with linen white bottoms makes the perfect work fit. The best part? It comes with pockets!

3. Festive Pairings

At Ancestry, we think festive looks are easily overdone, and hence we prefer to keep things subtle with our ladies kurta, and our fabrics and embellishments do the talking. The Laali Basic Kurti encapsulates this view. Made with delicate cotton silk chanderi, the bright red tunic adds a pop of colour, so it looks best with a cream-colored bottom with colourful mojaris paired with heavy earrings. Try out the kurti collection for special occasions.

Can’t resist going all out for festivities? We also have pieces like the Monochrome Silk Brocade Kurta to strike your fancy. The burnished gold and embroidered details are sure to make heads turn, and this piece works best when paired with a pair of matching trousers and a sheer cream dupatta from our collection.
