2026 Colours in Indian Wear: Emerald, Wine, Sage and Powder Blue

By Abhishek Arora · Style World, Aintree · Updated 31 Oct 2026 · 2 min read

Four colours are leading Indian wear for the 2026–27 wedding and festive season: emerald, wine, sage and powder blue. They suit Australian light, photograph beautifully and work for everything from a puja to a summer reception. Here’s how to wear each one.

Emerald green

Rich and regal, emerald flatters most skin tones and looks stunning with gold jewellery. Wear it for weddings, receptions and Diwali. Try the crepe ready-to-wear saree in emerald with red print or a Banarasi silk in green.

Wine and maroon

Wine is the grown-up alternative to bright red – perfect for Karwa Chauth, evening receptions and winter weddings. See our wine georgette suit and maroon sarees.

Sage green

Soft and fresh, sage is the colour of daytime events – mehndi, haldi, christenings and garden parties. It’s also lovely on kids: see the baby girls’ sage green floral sharara set and our dark green and sage chinon saree.

Powder blue

Light, cool and perfect for a Melbourne summer. Powder blue works for engagements, day weddings and family photos – and it’s easy to match across the family. See the powder blue ready-to-wear saree with jacket and the men’s sky blue silk kurta pajama.
