How to Turn Traditional Clothing into a Casual One

If you think you can make your traditional garment look good for casual occasions, the article below will tell you how to do it. We all may have a varied collection in the wardrobe of different kinds of clothing. There will be a different segment for casual and traditional formal wear and we choose effectively while looking out for such options. But sometimes we can mingle them to wear category clothing in an innovative way to suit the other occasion. It just requires little tweak of creativity to make a fashionable quotient out of it.

  1. If you have a vintage coat which is embroidered or has some traditional pattern then you can pair it up with a printed casual shirt and wear it underneath so that the edges grow out and are not fully covered by the coat at the hem or the cuff line. Wear some plain yet textured pant which matches the color of the coat and has a little contrast. This style is a hit in casual occasions.
  2. Make your traditional dress to look contemporary enough for casual occasion by taking out the extra frills to look smooth and flexible. Maybe if you have a very long and flow skirt which has a royal look to get shortened or patterned with funky abstract patterns.
  3. Get your traditional shirt to look compatible in informal events by widening and patterning the collar line and also playing with the sleeves and cuffs by roughing them up to make them look smart and fuzzed. You can also fold them in a different way to produce an easy appearance.
  4. Renovate your traditional skirt with shortened length and patterned hem line to make for a chic and charming look for casual functions and events. You can also use such kind of outfit for a regular day wear. If they are crisp and have conformed pleats then remove such definitions or add some buttons or studs on to make them look less traditional.
  5. For a traditional jacket you can make it look informal by teaming it up with casual t-shirt or Capri so that it looks amazingly luxurious and also comfortable. You can also customize the look by not changing any of the elements of this jacket but to compliment its style by making a humorous statement in other parts of clothing combined with the jacket to make it seem casual.
  6. Traditional pant can be made to look casual by making it look less formal. So you can add up extra features of pockets and harnesses and also induce some frills or also have it patched and ripped at some places to bring in a zing.
