A collar is perhaps one of the most understated fashion elements in any ensemble. A great collar can shine a spotlight on your neck and elongate it far more successfully than any blouse with a low neck can. While wearing outfits with collars can be super easy in the workplace, many women wonder whether this element can be a part of wedding fashion. The answer: Yes, it can!
Indo-western attire is incredibly popular and you’ll find a range of collar neck patterns that fit anywhere between the spectrums of traditional and quirky. Thus, you can arguably use this style in any look you want! Check out these collar neck patterns for inspiration and start hunting for similar attire!
1. A simple Chinese collar
A Chinese collar is one of the easiest ways to incorporate a collar in Indian garments. With just an inch of fabric surrounding your neck, the collar looks like a natural extension of the garment and does not feel forced. This is a great option for women who want a mostly traditional look. The bride in the picture chose to skip wearing bridal necklaces. Any guesses why? It is because the collar and embroidery on the bodice steal the show!
2. A shirt collar on a blouse!
Stiff triangular collars, like the ones we see on formal shirts, don’t have a place in wedding fashion, right? Wrong! These collars can look super chic when paired with the right kind of blouse. As you can see in the image above, the blouse has a circular cut out that brings more attention to the collar, making this a great way to incorporate collar neck patterns in a predominantly ethnic look!
3. A stiff Nehru collar with a saree!

The beauty of wearing indo-western garments lies in the fact that you can get away with wearing unique prints and styles that you would not normally associate with ethnic fashion. For instance, while ikat prints and tie-dye styles do have a place in Indian fashion, the shirt like the boxy structure of the blouse here transforms the look into an Indo-western one. We can even see this blouse with jeans and duster jacket. The collar neck patterns here bring so much attention to the neck and clavicle that no jewellery is necessary. Keep your hair out of the way if you want to rock this look!
4. A unique half-collar look
This blouse has been designed in a really cool way with one side dipping away from the neck for a sleeveless look, and the other having half a collar and sleeves. A look like this is an idea for sarees, and you can put the Pallu over the side that does not have the collar. The light collar neck patterns with stones make this a versatile blouse in spite of its quirky cut.
5. Plain rounded collars
Plain rounded collars are great options for softening any look. If you’re planning to wear a shirt style blouse with a plain rounded collar and a cotton saree, we’d say that it’s the perfect look for a Cocktail or reception night. Ensure that the material is not stiff because such collar neck designs are all about flowy movement.
6. Floral Chinese collar
This floral Chinese collar is a great option for women who want their necks to look much longer than they are. This ensemble is essentially an Anarkali with a cape thrown over it, however, you don’t need to layer your outfit if you’re wearing something similar. The collar neck patterns will demand attention and the Dori buttons will act as the perfect supporting cast!
7. Dramatic collar!
Do you have a penchant for drama? A large collar that looks folded over like this with heavy embroidery is perfect for a dramatic and statement-making look. Tie your hair in an elegant top knot after straightening it properly, and you’ll look amazing. Collar neck patterns like this put your face on display, so you must feel really confident if you want to wear this. Go with nude makeup for a fantastic look!
8. Military-style patterns!
You can also wear an ensemble that is relatively plainer, with the collar neck patterns stealing the spotlight. This dress from Shantanu and Nikhil is the perfect example of the same. Again, since the collar is the main highlight of the ensemble, you must keep your hair away from by either tying it back or putting it up in a bun. Since the garment is on the plainer side, you can get away with bold makeup!
Your collar neck patterns determine your look to a great extent, so don’t dismiss is that as random fashion element that no one will notice! Give it the same thought and consideration as the rest of your ensemble to look like a true diva!
With such gorgeous collars on display, you must wear statement earrings and nothing else! Check out these jewellery stores near you that offer statement earrings!
