Earthy Tones and Pastels: Find Your Perfect Linen Kurta Sets for Men
This season’s key menswear colour trends prioritise versatility, comfort and a flattering look. Amongst the most popular shades, two palettes stand out for all the good reasons: earthy tones and pastels. While the former boasts quietly elegant, balanced and simplistic colours including greys, browns and greens, the latter is synonymous with feel-good fashion thanks to hues of sky blue and flamingo pink. When it comes to linen clothing for men, especially linen kurtas for men, these colours are failsafe winners - scroll down to see why they are also must-haves in your wardrobe.
Earthy Tones and Pastels for Men
Their Popularity
This season’s two biggest colour trends achieve the same sleekness and elegance through very different ways. Named after their nature-inspired tones, earthy hues are versatile with varying depths, including greys, browns, reds and greens that inherently feel calm and confident. Besides grounding, they are easy to style thanks to their warm and neutral undertones.
While earthy tones have a flair for staying in the background and letting details and silhouettes shine, pastel tones make quite the impression. They are muted and lively with a naturally light and pale finish, known for highlighting facial features. Brimming with a sense of optimism, pastels are soft and soothing yet uplifting. These include blues, pinks and greens, rendered in muted finishes for even more wearability. Just like earthy shades, pastels also highlight the flattering look and sophistication of a linen kurta set for men, especially when the set is detailed with embroidery and intricate details.
Their Practicality
These shades aren’t simply flattering; they are practical for warmer climates as well. Unlike dark hues that absorb sunlight and heat, light colours reflect them, making clothing and linen kurtas for men more comfortable and cooling. Over summer and rising temperatures, opting for earthy and pastel colours reduces the chance of sweat and overheating.

Why Choose Linen?
Those drawn to earthy shades and pastel palettes will love them even more on linen clothing and kurta sets.
Cooling Feel: Individually, linen and light colours are already known for their breathability and featherweight feel. Together, they create the perfect moisture and heat-wicking combination for busy days, balmy afternoons and special occasions.
Colour Saturation: Unlike velvet and heavier fabrics that often can’t capture the delicate look of light colours, linen’s airy weave makes these muted hues pop even more.
Colour-Fabric Match: Earthy and pastel colours fit linen’s natural texture, slight creasing and soft feel perfectly. Each linen kurta design for men we handcraft mirrors the same harmony and quality, making it a noteworthy addition to any wardrobe.
Practicality: Unlike vibrant and rich shades, earthy tones and pastels are less likely to fade or lose their colour payoff, making them easier to wash and care for.

Styling Tips
If you are opting for earthy tones, play to their natural warmth with accessories featuring stone, wood, clay or terracotta colours. A pair of reddish brown leather sandals, or a taupe canvas bag will complement both your kurta set’s colour and fabric. Regarding fabric, we recommend following the ‘back-to-nature’ trend with materials such as leather, cotton, and of course, more linen. When styled with matching shades, classic textures and relaxed silhouettes, earthy colour palettes never fail to come to life.
On the other hand, pastels lend themselves well to crisp white contrasts and generous layering. If this is one of your first times purchasing or wearing a pastel linen kurta set, we recommend switching up your linen kurta for men with matching pants, and adding a neutral trouser for a more muted look. Our jackets - especially the White Jacket and Cookie & Cream Jacket also come in handy when styling pastels.
