\n\nDay 8 of Sharad Navratri 2026 is being observed today and the colour of the day is purple. This is Durga Ashtami, the day devotees worship Maa Mahagauri, the form of the Goddess linked with purity, peace and forgiveness. Many families also perform Kanya Puja on this day, so it is a busy one, full of rituals, guests and photos.
\n\nPurple is a lovely colour to wear for such a day. It feels rich and festive, but it is also calm and graceful. It suits almost every skin tone, and it works just as well in a simple cotton kurta as it does in a heavy silk lehenga. If you are still deciding what to wear, Bollywood has plenty of ideas. Shruti Haasan, Karisma Kapoor, Ananya Panday and Alia Bhatt have all worn purple ethnic outfits that are easy to recreate. Whether you want something light for the morning puja or something grand for an evening celebration, there is a look here for you.
