The bridal makeup look for Indian women also makes for a perfect look for formal events.
When you think of Indian bridal makeup looks, you usually see dark, bold smoky eyes with lots of liner paired with bright lips. This is the traditional way of wearing makeup for Indian women who are about to get married, as it matches the brightly colored (often red) saree or lehenga and festive decorations during the wedding.
Now there are many women from India or are of Indian descent that prefer a more western-style wedding. This usually entails a white wedding gown for the bride and simpler décor for the wedding venue. This of course goes with more minimalist makeup with neutral eyes, a hint of blush, and some nude or “your lips but better” lipstick.

The age-old traditional Indian bride usually wears red lipstick because it’s considered to be very feminine. And since red is very regal and festive, and it goes well with the gold jewelry Indian brides traditionally wear, it’s still a popular choice among modern Indian brides.
Keep in mind that there are tons of red lipstick shades out there, and there’s definitely one that suits your coloring the best.

If you have a deeper skin tone, oxblood red, brick red, wine, and burgundy shades would look phenomenal on you.
To apply the lipstick, we need to apply it in layers so it lasts longer. To start, make sure your lips have been exfoliated, and apply a thin layer of lip balm. Massage this into your lips and gently dab off the excess with a tissue. Next, use a lip brush and dip into the lipstick. Apply just a small amount and really massage it into your lips to create a stain. Once done, apply another layer and massage it in. Then apply your lipstick straight from the bullet, and blot off the excess onto a
Clearly, both the woman and the girl have been modified by De Bry to look European. De Bry has depicted them with sharp European features and considerably lighter skin tones. In addition, the tattoos on the Indian woman’s face and neck are missing in De Bry’s image. There is also possibly an attempt to hide the girl’s nudity by hiding the fact that the wrapping around her body is potentially covering only the front part of the bottom part of her body. Furthermore, De Bry shows the girl to be playing with Western toys, that is, a rattle and a doll.

Society has labeled African Americans as ugly ignorant people. They never show the improvement we have done over the years or how we are treated on a daily. The way I would look at Black America may be different from the way you and other look at it. When I look out I see beauty and style, southern living, harassed by police, and being ashamed of our own race so we run out and find a caucasian to build a relationship with. We’ve all heard the saying of a black person being called black monkey.
Throughout the story, Mita’s Indian attire resembles her challenging cultural transformation in a plethora of ways. To begin, she was given a sari from her father at the beginning of the story that she described as “‘the most expensive sari I had ever seen, and surely the most beautiful. It’s body was a pale pink, like the dawn sky over the women’s lake. The color Kercher 2 of transition’” (Divakaruni 3).
Textile designers are influenced by a huge variety of inspirations, which can be reflected in the fabric decoration and fabric colouration used in their designs. For example, Collette Dinnigan’s choices of fabric decoration and colouration techniques are persuaded by feminity, Indian culture, as well as classic designs such as Yves Saint Laurent and Christian Dior. This can be seen in the pastel colour palette, soft embroidered embellishments and textural manipulations of her wedding dresses and formal wear garments, which are often heavily beaded using Indian techniques, similar to Dior. Dinnigan’s designs feature printed fabrics motivated by floral motifs and feminine colours, which also influence her application of floral lace fabrics, embroidery

The details of the wedding ceremony suggest a lot of information about the communication style that is taking place throughout the ceremony. One type of information that is demonstrated throughout the ceremony is the idea of the Hindu religion being part of a high context culture. High context cultures are cultures that do not explicitly transmit message but instead meaning is implied by the environment (Lustig & Koester, 2013). The Hindu wedding ceremony is full of these indirect messages that are common with the high context culture. First there are a lot of symbols used in the wedding ceremony.

Arranged marriage is a controversial practice in many cultures around the world. However, studies have found that roughly 85 percent of Indians prefer to engage in this tradition, and have a higher rate of marrital success than a marriage based on personal choice. (Dholakia, 4) Yet, even considering these statistics, it remains a concept that is met with dissapproval, thought to be archaic and demeaning to those involved. Chittra Banerjee Divakaruni’s short story Clothes depicts a young woman transition, from being obliged to follow this cultural norm, and the shifts in her mentality throughout this process. It is not unreasonable for the reader to view the protagonist, Sumita, to be a victim of this presumably inhumane practice.
The Indians were taken over by the British when this happened the British tried to change the Indian culture into theres. It didn't work but they did succeed and adding some of the cultural into the Indians because there are some similarities. Although the only differences and similarities in my opinion I think that those clothes food language sports and education The Indians were different things in the British. For example in the in the passage in paragraph nine it states the "the cotton dress should've looked strange and a little girl not an Indian clothes" (Santha Rama Ru page 9) this implies that the Indians don't usually wear cotton dresses so we can make a safe assumption that that's what it is little girls used to wear. As for the Indians when they weren't trying to fit in they would be dressed quite the little girl "she had a long glossy black braids and wore a cotton dress, but she kept on Indian jewelry- a gold chain around the neck, thin gold bracelets, and tiny tiny studs in her ears.like most Indian children she had a ring of black Kohl around of eyes" (Ru paragraph 9) this shows how the British were changing the Indians because they are too afraid to use the own clothing because they wouldn't fit in to the community.
