Get set to sparkle
However you’re celebrating Diwali this year, you’ll find dazzling occasionwear for the whole family in our range. We love this shimmering column midi dress, in a comfy fit with a flattering self-tie belt and elegant long sleeves. The tuxedo trend is hot news in menswear – we’ve got lots of tuxedo-style blazers to choose from, and this pink velvet version will make a real statement.
Kitting out the kids for Diwali will help them feel part of the celebrations. This sparkly checked dress features super-cute puffed sleeves and a bow at the back, making it a fun choice. There’s plenty for boys in our kids’ partywear collection, too – think smart-yet-comfy pieces such including oxford shirts, chinos and more.
Homemade delights
For Gaurav, a big part of Diwali is exchanging homemade sweets with other households. He loves helping his mother to make traditional sweets, such as milk-based barfi, and gifting them to relatives.
Our super-simple recipe for chocolate barfi truffles is a twist on this Diwali classic. The best part? These moreish truffles don’t require any cooking whatsoever – simply chill them in the fridge to set.
