We at TCT present to you, 10 such ideas to make this Navratri unforgettable for your little one. Go dance your hearts out like nobody’s watching but here’s how to make sure that your child feels and looks the best!

Garba dress or outfit ideas:

1. Twinning outfit

Twining outfits have suddenly become a rage, so why not go full throttle in ethnic mode at that Garba house party with your mini version? Mother-daughter, father-son, or even siblings look great in twining cum matching outfits.

2. Crop top with palazzos

Nothing does not look good with a crop top! So pair a cute crop top with ethnic-touch palazzo pants. It will make for a fun and quirky combo for a quintessential Garba dress!

3. Cotton chaniya choli- the best Garba dress

If a no-fuss and hassle-free is your go-to mode, opt for an easy-breezy cotton chaniya choli for your little girl. Most of these are available in a wide array of colors and can be easily sourced from multiple e-commerce portals!

4. The traditional look for boys

A simple dhoti kurta or even a kurta paired with denim looks best for boys. If you are looking for something unique you can even opt for a kediyu which surely is one of the fastest-selling items during the Garba season.

5. Kurta/Pyajama with waistcoat

The chic look of kurta/pyajma is enhanced by pairing it with a colorful cum ethnic waistcoat. A waistcoat not only breaks down the monotony of a Garba dress but adds a new dimension to the whole outfit.

6. A readymade saree

Little girls love draping themselves with their mum’s dupatta and making it look like a saree! So why not get a readymade draped saree for your little diva this year? They look great and honestly, there is no fuss of draping, so it becomes very easy and looks fun too!

7. White cotton kurta-pyjama

Keep it subtle with pure white cotton kurta-pyjama. White is pure. White is unbeatable and unmatchable. Opt for this if your child doesn’t like bright colors!

8. The traditional look for boys

A dhoti/kurta or a dhoti-kediyu combo or just kurta/pajama looks pretty chic for little boys.

9. Frock-style lehenga

Your baby girl isn’t into dressing up much? Here’s the answer to such! From embroidered Banglori silk to Western-style frocks! There are umpteen options.

10. Last-minute dress ideas

If you happen to miss the train in sourcing that perfect Garba dress for your little one then combining a skirt kurta and dupatta for girls and a jeans kurta combo works well for boys.
