Let’s start with the roots.
Bandhgala: Often called the “Prince Coat”, the Bandhgala dates back to colonial-era Rajasthan. With its structured silhouette, closed (or “bandh”) neck, and royal charm, it became a staple for Indian dignitaries and elites.
Jodhpuri Suit: The Jodhpuri suit evolved from the Bandhgala itself—fusing Indian tailoring with Western suiting. It includes a Bandhgala jacket paired with matching trousers, and often features a vest or waistcoat for added structure.
When Should You Wear a Jodhpuri Suit?
The Jodhpur bandhgala suit brings a modern edge to traditional elegance. It’s a perfect pick when the occasion calls for sophistication with a twist.
Best occasions:
- Receptions or cocktail nights
- Engagements and anniversaries
- Award functions or gala events
- Corporate weddings or Indo-western themed events
Styling tips:
- Go for monotone textures or mild jacquard
- Accessorize with a minimal pocket square or satin lapel pin
- Choose structured dress shoes or loafers
Think of it as the perfect outfit when you want to stand tall, sharp, and sophisticated—without losing your Indian identity.

Deepee’s Designer Tip: What Abhishek Trivedi Recommends
“We often guide clients based on personality. Bandhgalas suit men who want subtle richness—those who carry heritage well. Jodhpuri suits work for men who are sharp, fast-paced, and want a clean, modern elegance with just a hint of tradition.” Custom tailoring ensures both styles bring out your best features—whether it’s a royal neckline, a sculpted shoulder line, or a tapered fit around the waist.
At Deepee’s, every piece is designed for both statement and comfort.
