Indian traditional wear is no longer just a reflection of heritage but also a hot trend. One striking accessory that exemplifies this beautiful blend of culture and style is the gutt da paranda.
This artfully crafted hair extender is usually made from colourful silk woven into intricate patterns.
Take cues from how desi fashionistas use the paranda effectively.
