Muslim Groom Outfit: Get the Utmost Style
By Hijabi Bridal Team ·
What does a Muslim groom wear? Well, let's just say that his Muslim groom outfit is almost as important as the bridal dress. The pair will wear the same colors, or at least the same color of accents. But the groom's Muslim wedding attire will also reflect his personality with elegance and sophistication. Tuxedos are not dressy enough, by half! A Muslim groom outfit is showcased with nice thobes, shalwar kameez and embroidered sherwani. And layers are part of the blessed sunnah. So don’t forget the waistcoat.

The Right Muslim Groom Outfit: The Thobe
The thobe, also known as a dishdasha, is a traditional garment... For a Muslim groom outfit, the thobe can be elevated with the right accessories to create a distinguished and stylish look.
Thobe Design
To make it dressy, choose a cotton blend thobe that has a sateen finish...
Traditional Eastern Shoes for the Thobe
For an unexpected touch of flair, pair the thobe with traditional eastern shoes, such as khussa or mojari.
Matching a Turban with a Thobe
A topi or white imama won’t do for Muslim groom dress... The turban should help the bride and groom match in color.
Embroidered Waistcoat, Sherwani and Thobe
Adding a sherwani and vest to a thobe ensemble can create a polished and refined look.
Shalwar Kameez for the Muslim Groom Outfit
Like the thobe, shalwar kameez is a semi-dressy, but totally daily look... he can match a satin-finished shalwar kameez with a long sherwani.
Shalwar Kameez Design
Choose a shalwar kameez made from a heavy cotton... opt for rich colors like deep maroon, royal blue, or emerald green.
Long Sherwani and Kameez
A sherwani is a long coat-like garment... It adds a kingly touch to the Muslim groom wedding outfit.
Waistcoat Layered with Kameez and Sherwani
For classy layers, add a waistcoat under the sherwani.
Turban Matching the Sherwani
A matching turban is an essential accessory... adorn it with a brooch, feather or trailing jasmine flowers.
Muslim Groom Dress Shoes with a Kameez
Pair the shalwar kameez and sherwani with Western dress shoes for refined and elegant Islamic wedding wear.
The Go-To: Embroidered Sherwani for the Muslim Groom Outfit
The sherwani is a traditional, go-to garment... in South Asia, embroidered sherwanis for grooms are used very frequently.
Embroidered Sherwani Design
An embroidered wedding sherwani is usually of brocade or velvet. We’ve seen them in light green, red, gold and maroon.
