i've always been a fan of black..and you don't see many vardiyaan that have any sort of black on it..whether its a base color/design/chadre color..

if you watch YPA's video they just posted..look at khush's vardiyaan (pink/black)...i LOVED the color scheme on that

but yeah as kinnell said...try something different/something you don't see in a lot of vardiyaan nowadays

You have two options: Go for a base color or don't.

A base color means that it is common to all dancers. For example, the same color kurta or the same color vest for everything and that you differentiate on something else for rangla scheme.

In order of usage for the base color:

1. White
2. Black
3. Gray
4. Light Gold

Do something different.

If you want to go base color and are confident in your sexuality, go for light pink! :D Or don't be flamboyant and awesome and go for light blue or light green or whatever...

If you don't go base color, avoid the skip a color in the rainbow scheme. Way too overdone!
For example, if you have the rainbow Red Orange Yellow Green Blue Indigo Violet, some teams will go:
1. Red Yellow
2. Orange Green
3. Blue Violet(/Pink)

I made vardiyan fro a team with the base color of Black for UVA and a base color of Turquoise for a team in Florida...  They both turned out great, the turquoise was one of a kind, so try picking a cool color.

My reason for posting that was to give an idea of what black looks like as a base. i LOVE it, even with the purple background n me pagh-less in the background. As for the Florida team with the tourquoise base, their vaardiyaan are SICKNESS!
Guardians?.... you're a good team...
