Sourcing Versatile Fabrics Made Easy ft Fabcurate

“Fit is everything. I don’t care what your body type is like: 

If you’re not wearing clothes that fit you, you can’t have style.”

— Stacy London

The quote above totally resonates my styling mantra that emphasizes the importance of exquisite clothing in enhancing one's physical appearance. Though majority of modern generation might plump for readymade garments as those are readily available in varied choices, designs, and patterns; but there is a large chuck of population that still tilts towards tailored clothing where you can always have a say in even the minute details of making of your garment and flaunt your fit inch by inch.

For those who fall in second category like me, and are keen to explore versatile fabrics, we've got you covered. If you’ve not heard me talk about Fabcurate earlier, this is an online fabric supplier platform based in Surat, serving a nationwide community of talented artisans. They have a selection of over thousands different fabrics from over hundreds of wholesale suppliers, which serves as an impressive library to source fabrics from.

While you may find tons of recommendations for branded physical stores for dress materials, I highly recommend you to have a thorough hunt at this digi-market and trust me, you won't be disappointed.

As the festive season is in full swing and it makes a fab excuse to buy new clothes to get dolled up, I've handpicked some gorgeous pieces to upgrade my wardrobe very thoughtfully and get the most snazzy ethnic ensembles curated for special occasions.

Here I enlist some of my favourite gems for dress materials you would certainly love-

Chanderi:
If you are planning for an alluring attire in Chanderi fabric, the bigger motifs are the best bet. A huge selection of quirky patterns, digital prints, geometric prints and dyeable fabrics is offered that can be your smartest fashion inns for this year. From Kurtis to skirts, dresses to tops, lehanga to saris - everything looks ravishing in Chanderi.

Raw Silk:
One of the smooth and delicate form of fabric that can easily be woven into different types of clothing items. Opt for the solid, printed, embroidered or checkered one - the garment made of raw silk can make for a gorgeous attire in any case.

Sequins Georgette Fabric:
Georgette fabric is durable, stronger, lightweight and a choice for younger women as its easy to carry. The beauty of a printed georgette fabric can be taken to next level when it's embellished with beads and sequins. The sparkle of sequins is quite voguish this year. Bright colours and neutrals both styles are getting an extra kick with all that glitters.

Organza:
Yet another most loved fabric of younger girls is Organza. Who doesn't love its stunning sheer! The translucent fabric reflects light beautifully and the attire looks so dreamy with matching accessories. Definitely a must have!

Fabcurate also gives its customers the choice to get their favourite designs printed on the fabric of their choice. Wow! Isn't it mind blowing to get your custom fabric printed with your own design to create something totally unique..

Interesting Raksha Bandhan Gift Ideas for Brothers

Raksha Bandhan is considered as one of the most loved festivals throughout India. Since ancient times, sisters tie the thread of love on their brother's wrist and in return, the brother showers her with gifts and sweets.

While your brother is busy scrambling for lovely presents for a lovely sister, why not surprise your 'favourite enemy' by the means of some cool return gifts that he might not be expecting from you!

Sisters who're contemplating as to what could be the perfect gift for their brothers, I've got a few amazing recommendations:

1. Customized or Handmade Rakhi: 

Raksha Bandhan is always special, but you may take it to another level by getting a personalizing your Rakhi with brother's name, initials or picture of you both. The unique rakhis available these days on online portals can be worn as bracelets even when the festival is over. 

The sisters who are skilled in craft can make the sacred thread of Rakhi at home using silk thread, wool, satin ribbon, foam, wool, sequins, tassels, beads and much more. Your brother would surely adore you for your efforts.

2. Premium Fragrances & Grooming Kits:

Spoil your brother for choices with some premium perfumes and finest grooming kits that he may utilize on every day basis. For the men who prioritize self-care, a luxurious grooming kit curated thoughtfully with shaving essentials, skin care essentials and bathing essentials is definitely a failsafe idea of conveying your love to your brother.

3. Classy Fashion Accessories: 
Men grab more attention when their well-endowed look is complete with a few classy accessories. Some premium fashion accessories that are undoubtedly the best picks include a leather wallet, a bowtie, lapel pins, cufflinks, neckties, silk scarves etc. You may actually choose to order accessories giftsets online from trusted websites like Mensome as there're plenty of options to choose from and that too in special packaging at pocket-friendly prices. 

  

4. Vegan Snacks & Sweets: 

With a widespread awareness of veganism, people have switched to healthy and plant-based eatables and drinks. A combo pack of guilt-free snacks consisting of roasted, sugarfree, protein-packed snacks gonna be a stand-out return gift for your diet-conscious brother that he may indulge into without having to count calories.

5. Fitness-Oriented Gifts:

For the gym rat in your life who loves spending time in shaping his body, a plethora of gift options are open to win over his heart. Choose from a portable blender, personalized shaker, foam roller, yoga blocks, gym bag, resistance band set, muscle massager or simply a gym-friendly outfit-the workout enthusiast brother will thank you for helping him melt away his body fats. 

The gifting choices for a special sibling are simply endless, however, I would choose to move away from traditional options and consider giving my brother something to enhance his individual style and separate him from the crowd.

Do share in comments which option did you like the most.
