There is something almost cinematic about a wedding, the soft rustle of silk and muslin, the hushed excitement among guests, the clink of champagne flutes, the flicker of lights casting elegant shadows. In that atmosphere, what you wear becomes more than just clothes; it becomes a statement, a mood, a part of the celebration itself. For the modern gentleman who values tradition yet embraces contemporary flair, the right waistcoat can be the defining piece that captures elegance, sophistication and festivity all at once. In this edit, we bring you five waistcoats from Fabindia that are perfect for weddings, whether you’re the groom, the best man, or a stylish guest.
