5 Tips To Slay Your Saree Look

Saree is one dress which is loved by all women and we literally mean that. But there are a few women, who no matter how much crave for wearing sarees, don’t opt for the option. Why?
They’re fat. Yup, the tensions, and busy lifestyle has taken its toll on them and their beauty is sometimes reduced due to this.
Are you one of them? Have you put on a little more weight than you should have and now you look simply fat when you wear sarees? We’re sure that due to this reason you have started resisting wearing sarees.
But hey, don’t you worry. Just because you have a few more pounds on your body doesn’t mean that you can’t look good in sarees, especially when there’s a way to look slimmer in them. Yup, it’s possible.
* Choose The Right Fabric
Do you know it all depends on your choice of fabric? If you choose the right fabric, you can look amazing and actually hide those extra pounds. What you need to do is to pick up light-weight fabrics (Georgette, Crepe, Chiffon etc) for they stick to your body very closely but not in an ugly manner, and make you look slender.
* Go for Lighter Prints
To look slim in sarees, you must try to go for the lighter prints – light or sleek kind of embroidery and if it’s just the print – go for the smaller one. The bold and big prints would make you look plump. Remember that the heavy material isn’t meant for you. When it’s about embroidered sarees, go for really small motifs. Avoid the huge chunks of embroidery. With printed sarees, avoid big floral prints. Instead, go for small floral prints or abstract prints. Digital prints also work amazingly to conceal your flabby areas.
* Pick Sleek Borders
Have you ever seen Bollywood actress Rani Mukherji wearing sarees with big borders? Did you notice how she looks shorter in such sarees? If you’re her fan, don’t get offended. The diva does carry the attire very well but sometimes she misses the point. Sometimes she forgets that she is short and she doesn’t need to look ‘shorter’. But this is something you shouldn’t forget. If you’re plump and short, go for narrow borders to look slim in saree. Big borders are just not meant for short and fat people.
* Wear dark Colors
Who doesn’t look slim in black? Do you know why that happens? It’s because of the color. If you choose the right color, you can definitely look slim in sarees. Wear some dark colors like purple, black etc and you can see the difference yourself.
* Drape it well
Draping is the most important part of wearing a saree. Who hasn’t seen some old age aunties wearing sarees in a shabby manner? What’s their excuse? “We’re fat, that our sarees look like this when we wear it.” But that is not so. They get a shabby, eeewwww kind of look because they forget the importance of fine draping. And this, you should not forget. Make sure you have draped your saree well. You shouldn’t tug in the entire drapes at one place unless you want to show an extra bulged out tummy.
