Experimental Groom Trends We Spotted on Grooms in 2018 

Flared Sherwanis and Kurtas

This Men kurta style that dates back to the Mughal Era became a rage among grooms in 2018 and undoubtedly a much-needed one. Taking groom fashion a notch higher, these flared kurtas were a breath of fresh air and our grooms didn't shy away from donning them. Pairing them with either Nehru jackets or a long bandhgalas, they looked royal and crisp AF! Such kurtas and sherwanis undoubtedly made up for one of the best groom outfits of 2018. 

Grooms Can Wear Anarkalis Too

This is apparently the most unique outfit experiment we spotted in 2018 and not just amongst grooms but at a collective level. Taking the flared kurta game to another level was this groom Vishrut, who wore a vibrant yellow anarkali by Anju Modi for his Mehndi ceremony and left everybody stunned! Pairing it up with a dupatta he carried the ensemble with sheer grace and made sure to get captured amidst those twirls too! Now that's some "breaking the stereotypes" styling!

Personalized Outfits

Since there's a scope of personalization in every aspect of weddings, it wasn't only brides in 2018 that went for personalized outfits but, grooms as well. Right from getting their names and initials embroidered on their outfits to wearing cufflinks and shoes personalized with their wedding dates, our grooms went all out.

Asymmetrical Hemmed Kurtas & Jackets

Adding a unique definition to the usual kurtas were the raging asymmetrical hems. Cowls, elongated pleats and scrunched up sides give a unique twist and elevate the entire look. No wonder the grooms looked dapper AF in such edgy attires giving us major groom outfit goals.
