Types of Indian Men’s Jackets

Here is a brief description of some of the popular types of Indian Men’s Jacket styles, which are available at Cbazaar:

Nehru Jacket: The Nehru jacket is a classic ethnic Indian garment that exudes sophistication and style. It was named after Jawaharlal Nehru, India's first Prime Minister. This jacket evolved from the traditional Indian jackets of Jodhpuri and Achkan and has garnered a lot of popularity both domestically and internationally. It is distinguished by its high mandarin collar and front-button construction. It was made extremely popular in India throughout the 1940s and 1950s and slowly made its way into Europe and the United States in the mid-1960s and became extremely famous that even members of the popular music band The Beatles have worn this traditional jacket piece. These Nehru jackets offer a dignified look and can be worn over a Kurta in a Kurta Pajama Set and worn to weddings, festive celebrations and even parties. 

Bandhgala Jacket: The bandhgala jacket is a structured and formal band collared jacket, symbolizing timeless classicism, power, and regal charm through its sharp silhouettes. Contrary to popular belief, the bandhgala originated in Jodhpur and evolved from the loose-fitting angarkha garment. This fusion of Indo-Western style quickly became a classic across India due to the versatility of its shorter jacket design. Its princely appearance due to the closed-neck style, along with the ability to pair it with both Western and Eastern pants, such as Jodhpuri breeches, made it a prominent representative of essential Indian style in contemporary fashion. Over time, the bandhgala has become synonymous with formal dressing and gained popularity in celebrity culture. Its versatility, impeccable fit, and global appeal have revolutionized men's fashion not only in India but also internationally. Hence, it is no surprise to witness the bandhgala being donned at formal occasions like weddings, gracing Hollywood and Bollywood red carpets, and adding sophistication to stately affairs.
