Sarees are no longer merely traditional Indian clothing. Experimenting with the saree to get the perfect and unique look has given rise to new quirky trends and revived the appearance of this classic Indian garment. Let's have a look at some interesting and fun saree ideas.
Belt it
Belt saris are popular these days. Simply put on your saree as usual and add a belt that cinches around your waist at your pallu. A Kamar bandh could be worn instead of the belt for a more traditional look.
Dhoti style
This is another saree design that is gaining popularity due to its distinct appearance. It differs from a traditional saree in that the bottom has a dhoti-style weaving, and a legging must be worn inside instead of a petticoat.
Mermaid-inspired
A lovely drapery technique that spreads out the lower half of the pleats to resemble a mermaid's tail. This saree appears to need a lot of effort, yet all it requires are a few more tucks and pleats.
The Saree with pants
In addition to its flashy appearance, a saree with a pant design is also incredibly comfortable. It is great if you want to stand out throughout the wedding season!
Pallu in front
In this saree style, the pallu is worn back to front rather than front to back. This pallu pattern stands out without compromising the saree's individuality.
Gown style, pre-stitched
If you want to pull off this style effectively, you must have a killer blouse. You can experiment with your blouse as much as you want with the pre-stitched gown design. Consider embellishments such as sequins, a net, a jacket-style bodice or a peplum-style bodice.
Placing a brooch on a saree
If you want to present your best face in terms of styling, go a slightly different route. Get a trendy brooch and pin it to your pallu for a fashionable look.
This coming spring, the first thing you want to trade is the wool scarf for a slender looking poncho. This particular garment was highly popular in the 1970s, and is making a comeback. During the spring months, it may still be too chilly to not wear a coat, so a wrapped poncho is suggested. Be sure, when purchasing, then sporting said piece, to be confident.
France's famous couture houses have nothing to fear from an imminent ban of very thin models from runways and fashion spreads, according to New Zealand marketing research.
PARIS — Their musical styles couldn't be further apart, but that didn't stop rapper Kanye West and former-Beatle and fashion dad Paul McCartney arriving at the Stella McCartney show buddy-buddy to join actor Woody Harrelson on the front row. But the strong celebrity presence wasn't needed to attract attention to the 43-year-old's designs.
PARIS — This season's mantra is: pile it all on. We've seen it notably at Lanvin, Dries Van Noten — and now, here, at Kenzo's draped, voluminous and colorful fashion spectacle. It takes a lot to drag fashionistas out early on a Sunday morning to a venue on the outskirts of the city.
After attending shows, scouring the internet, and well, downright people watching, the consensus is in: Women will take the cake in the upcoming months. Men are sporting drab, dark, and funky items, and women are just having fun. It’s a beautiful juxtaposition.
