OK folks, if you really have a gorgeous saree that you want to show off, do not use a vilayati mannequin with short golden hair and please, please, I beg you, to put a darn blouse on the mannequin.
Don’t show a saree like this, especially if costs Rs 20,000 ($425).
This picture is wrong from so many angles; it hurts my eyes to even look at it.
