How to style printed short kurtas for men?

Printed short kurtas are the epitome of contemporary fashion for men. They're casual, easy to carry, and super-fun to style. 

 

1. Blue denim jeans + slip-on shoes + sunglasses

A printed men's short kurta paired with new era denims is a classic example of fusion fashion. Crank it up a notch with slip-on shoes, beaded bracelets and shades for hotter days.

For rustic, peppier results; team your houndstooth print short kurta with loose cotton trousers, leather slippers and a hat. They're fresh, comfortable, and set you apart from the crowd.

9. Colour-block your printed shirt

One of the latest fads of 2022, colour-blocking can work well with printed shirts for men. Find a pair of chinos of the same colour tone, white sneakers, and sunglasses for a complete look.

10. The tuck-in style

Prints like checks and polka dots are some of the most common patterns for men's shirts. But that doesn't mean you can't own them. We recommend a pastel-coloured check shirt tucked in relaxed-fit pants (contrasting shades).

11. Go the formal way

A formal look with printed shirts is a safety school for guys! Keep it real with formal pants, a slick brown/black belt, and Derbys/Oxford shoes.

How to style print-on-print for men?

Print-on-print can be a bold move on your part, however, if done right, the complements will never stop. Start with contrasting shades of pants and shirts with subtle prints like polka dots. White sneakers go a long way for casual looks.
