Ethnic Saree: One That Can Never Go Out of Style

Our love for ethnic silk sarees is perennial which will never cease to impress us with their versatility and their magical charm. They are timeless classics that are an integral part of Indian culture and will continue to spread their charisma and rule the wardrobes of Indian women. So, let’s get ready to spruce up your closets with distinct festive sarees and feel on top of the world.

The Drape Options

India proudly boasts of its rich customs and traditions which include having a diverse collection of sarees. These festive sarees are not only made using different fabrics and methods but can also be draped in different styles, with each drape having a unique history. Let us have a quick look at some of the popular draping styles in India.

• Nivi saree drape from Andhra Pradesh involves tucking the pleats at the centre of the waist with the pallu twisted from the right and pinned to the left shoulder. This draping style is very comfortable and is apt for busy working women.
• Nauvari saree from Maharashtra is draped like a dhoti with pleats tucked at the back. These sarees are worn without the petticoat and allow free movement of the hands and legs.
• Seedha Pallu saree in which the pallu falls in front is traditionally from Gujarat but is now commonly worn by women all across the country on special occasions like Diwali and weddings.
• Mekhela Chador saree drape from Assam consists of two parts, the mekhela which is the lower part of the saree and is worn waist downwards over a petticoat and the chador which is draped like a saree covering the upper part of the body.
• The Parsi saree drape also known as the Gol Saree is similar to the Seedha Pallu saree in which the pallu is draped from the back to the front on the right shoulder and then taken diagonally to the left shoulder.

Diwali is the festival of lights, vibrant hues, and magnificence. Banarasi silk sarees with their bright colors, zari work and intricate floral motifs resonate with the grandeur of the festival and make them a perfect choice for the well-lit Diwali season. If you are looking for a saree for karwachauth, a silk saree is a very good option as it matches the aesthetics of the auspicious occasion.

Cotton Silk Saree for Holi

The Holi festival is an explosion of colors and as the days get hot with the rising temperatures, women like to opt for bright-colored, lightweight sarees that are apt for the season. It would be a wise decision to go for cotton chanderi sarees, bandhani sarees, chikankari sarees, etc that suit the bill for Holi sarees.

Silk Sarees for Durga Pooja

White silk sarees with a red border with paisley motifs draped in Bengali style are the most common attire for the magnificent celebrations on Durga Pooja. For a perfect Durga puja saree opt for georgette sarees or brocade sarees in bright colors like blue, green, yellow, and red to capture the essence of the festivities.

Georgette Sarees For Navratri

Navratri is the time to indulge in Garbha dances, get-togethers, and religious ceremonies. Bandhani sarees in bright colorful patterns with gota work can be the best choice for the Navratri saree and can glam up your festive season. You can also opt for georgette sarees with embroidery and embellishments for a formal look.

Different cultures in India have different traditions and follow different customs. In many cultures a black saree for Sankranti is considered auspicious, a brocade saree in green is considered a teej special saree, and a red kanjeevaram or banarsi saree is an ideal saree for Ganesh Chaturthi. While some women like to follow the norms, a few also like to experiment and dress up as per their comfort and taste. You can also opt for floral or printed sarees with embellishments, scalloping, embroidery, tassels, and designer blouses and rock the festive season.
