2010 Saree blouse designs – Archana Kocchar collection

Both of the blouse designs are interesting and go with the theme and the soul of the saree.

sarees spotted at the Gujarati screen and stage show

I speak fluent Gujarati and love gujarati culture in general (ok, still not fond of sugar in my dal, but rest of the stuff is pretty OK) but I never thought of gujarati women as very fashionable. All that has changed now.

ahhh… sheer saree blouse sleeves again

Well, when something is trendy, everybody and her sister in law wants to do it.

This is from the 16th Annual Star Screen Awards.

Glass Tissue Saree and sleeve less saree blouse

Nice saree and interesting sleeve less blouse.

I have mixed feelings about the sleeve less blouses. The problem is that there is the pallu to contend with, so the full effect of being sleeve less is lost and at times, with the pallu covering the blouse, it just seems that you are not wearing any blouse.

This is also a issue with the spaghetti strap blouses, but not as much.

Oh I hate YKK company – on zippers in blouses

I have no issues with zippers in blouses, on occasions, I have tried to incorporate it in my work as well. But I really really hate this, when the zipper is not put together correctly and the seam shows and the slider is hanging out! Can’t stand that slider, with YKK mark on it.. it doesn’t say YKK, it says yukk…!

The zipper should be invisible and the slider should be locked.

Stay with hooks, constructions of those have gotten a lot better and they blend in a lot easier with the fabric.

Blouse Designs for the New Year

It is a new year and with that comes a chance to update your wardrobe and try some new and unique styles. Here are a few blouse designs which, though these blouse cuts are nothing totally new, each has a little something that makes it stick out and look unique.

A narrow shoulder and a high neckline are a conservative look, but add that slit down the front and you add a little more zing to the blouse. I wouldn’t go with such a low slit though for practical reasons but a shallow slit in the front of the blouse could spice up your blouse without being too revealing.

A spaghetti strap halter has been done many time before. What’s different about this blouse though, is that the blouse itself is well-structured and not nearly as exposing as these bikini blouses all the Bollywood stars are wearing these days. The gold border along the top edge of the blouse also makes for a nice detail.

Here you have your classic cut blouse but what I like is the two-toned transparent sleeves. It is a small factor but it adds a charm to the blouse.

Two Ruched Blouse Design Ideas

It is sometimes hard to come up with new blouse design ideas. Have you thought about experimenting with the texture of your blouse? Here are two new blouse design ideas. Both have ruched fabric which adds a whole new look to the blouse.

The neckline of this first blouse is very elegant with a large scoop neck in the back and a high neckline in the front. The front part of the neckline is heavy with sequins and beading which could even substitute a necklace. The ruched net fabric of the blouse is a unique look and for larger women may help to hide some curves that you’d like to keep hidden.

Though this blouse is again ruched an a unique look, I can’t say that I find the lace on the back to be very flattering. The lace around the neckline on the front of the blouse makes for a nice feminine neckline but the back of the blouse is a little overdone. A simpler lace border would perhaps work very well here.

Not all saree blouses have to be bikini blouses and reveal more

Not all blouses have to show more skin to be contemporary. This one is “proper”; it holds its own and provides support to the saree and looks amazing.

From Sareeworld.com about $250, if you must know.
