Hi Again,

 

Thanks for your terrific response to my previous posts on sarees. Today I am going to share with you a few tips for saree wearers. A saree clad woman can look clumsy if the saree is not draped properly and the same saree can make you look extremely elegant if a few simple tips are followed.

 

Tips for Saree Wearers

·         Heavier women should wear fabrics like Chiffon, Crepe, Georgette and avoid Organza, Tissue and Cotton. This rule applies vice versa for very thin women who want a fuller look.

·         Large prints and sarees with broad borders make one look shorter.

·         Heavier women should wear straight cut, non-flare petticoats underneath the saree.

·         Cotton sarees should be starched and ironed properly before wearing.

·         For office wear, one should choose cotton sarees in subtle colours and prints. These should be worn with the pallu folded in pleats and pinned on the shoulder.

·         Heavy silk sarees with golden thread work should be wrapped in a saree cover before storing.

·         Always wear sandals before draping the saree.

Hope these tips come in handy the next time you wear a saree. In the meantime do go through www.carmaworld.com for an exclusive collection of Banarsi and Embroidered Sarees.
