Tips for Choosing the Correct Ready to Wear Saree Style

Here are different tips and suggestions for choosing the correct ready to wear saree type:

When deciding whether to opt for a ready to wear saree with or without an attached petticoat, here's a breakdown to guide your selection:

It's essential to consider the fabric type.

  • Lightweight and Transparent Fabrics (e.g., Georgette, Chiffon): Choose a saree with an attached petticoat to provide structure and ensure proper draping. This also helps address transparency issues #transparentsaree commonly associated with these fabrics.

  • Thicker and Heavier Fabrics (e.g., Kanjivaram, Banarasi Silk): Opt for a ready to wear saree without an attached petticoat to prevent unnecessary bulk. The additional petticoat may hinder the saree's natural flow and appearance.

  • Fully Transparent Fabrics (e.g., Net, Organza): It's crucial to select a saree with a mandatory attached petticoat. These sarees heavily rely on the attached petticoat to maintain their aesthetic, as an unmatched petticoat would compromise their transparency.

Consideration of your existing petticoat or shapewear is also significant:

  • If you already own matching petticoats or shapewear and the saree isn't transparent, opting for a ready to wear saree without an attached petticoat is suitable. These sarees can be worn directly over tights or leggings too, providing convenience and ease of wear.

  • If you lack matching petticoats or shapewear, choosing a ready to wear saree with an attached petticoat is advantageous both in terms of convenience and cost-effectiveness. This option is particularly beneficial for lightweight and transparent sarees, ensuring proper draping and avoiding additional expenses on separate petticoats or shapewear.

When deciding the pallu style, #sareepallu whether to opt for a ready to wear saree with a loose pallu or a pleated pallu, here's a breakdown to guide your selection:

  • A loose pallu offers flexibility for various occasions, allowing you to style it as desired.

  • Fabrics also influence this decision; heavy sarees like Kanjivaram pattus suit a pleated pallu, while modern fabrics like Georgette and Chiffon look better with a loose pallu.

  • For sarees like Organza and net, a loose pallu is preferred. However, its equally important to choose the correct blouse pattern for these sarees becuase they are highly transparent. We recommend a boat neck blouse with back buttons as it covers well and also looks very elegant with these sarees.

  • For a formal appearance, a pleated pallu provides a neater, compact look, ideal for formal settings. A loose pallu may appear messy and could be impractical, especially in professional environments.
