Blouse Designs for the New Year

Lyndsey — Wed, 27 Jan 2010 17:26:13 +0000

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

Lyndsey — Sat, 23 Jan 2010 11:52:30 +0000

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.

Three Sides of Bollywood Beauty Deepika Padukone

Seductive: A simple saree and a teeny tiny bikini blouse (It doesn’t take much for a beautiful woman like her to look great, but I’d rather see her in a more structured blouse)

Conservative Socialite: A gorgeous detailed blouse with a jeweled neckline. No need for jewelry with this blouse. A very classy look.

Vintage Sweetheart: Maybe it’s mostly due to her hairdo, but the overall appeal is ‘Girl Next Door’ set in the 80’s.

80’s Style Blouse

Lyndsey — Tue, 12 Jan 2010 17:24:01 +0000

I’m having flask backs to the 80’s right now while looking at this blouse. No complaints about the saree but the puffed sleeves on the blouse are a little too masculine. I’d love to see what is underneath what appears to be a cropped jacket, that part has potential. The problem with such a broad shoulder is that it is hard to pull off. Sure, this thin model looks great in it but image a larger women in this blouse.

Unique Blouse Design Idea

Lyndsey — Fri, 18 Dec 2009 09:08:54 +0000

Here’s an interesting blouse design featured on vasansi.com. This look is dainty with an antiquated appeal.

This blouse, features woven zari floral motifs and blue velvet floral patterns with a patchwork design. The colors are vibrant and the textures complement each other well. I especialy love the puffed long-sleeves of the blouse which seem to give the whole ensemble a more playful feminine look.

Hot or Not?: Blouse Designs

Lyndsey — Thu, 26 Nov 2009 03:50:01 +0000

I’ve chosen a few new blouse designs for today’s hot or not comparison. All of them caught my eye, and not necessarily in a good way.

The single shoulder strap blouse:

Hot – cute and simple (from homeindia.com)

Not – The decoration on the strap is too large and the way the choli fabric pulls at the chest is not flattering (bharatplaza.com)

The Fringe:

Hot – small hanging bead tassels (cbazaar.com)

Not – mud flaps (bharatplaza.com)

The halter-top blouse:

Hot – though I’d wear it without the sleeves (homeindia.com)

Not – its bunched up and looks unfitted (homeindia.com)

Blouse Designs: A Ruff on the Shoulder

Lyndsey — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 13:05:19 +0000

Ruffed shoulders give a feminine and dainty look to a blouse. I think a small ruffle adds a certain fun spunk to a blouse. Here are a few of my picks fom cbazaar’s latest designs.

A red brocade style blouse with ruched cap sleeves $49

A bouse fit for a princess: light blue polysilk with sequined stripes and net cap sleeves $52

A unique look with a red brocade and zardosi band and yellow/red ruffed netting over the shoulders $95

Bluish purple net cap sleeves give this blouse a very feminine touch $49

What Were They Thinking?

Lyndsey — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 17:42:09 +0000

Though I tend to find beauty in most any saree, I’m having trouble coming to terms with this one.

Saree from cbazaar.com

The Resham and sequins covering the saree, though beautiful when done right, are hurting my eyes. It’s a little too busy for my tastes. And the blouse; I think it’s really the blouse that is turning me away from this one. The large ruffed neck and long detailed sleeves, which are pulling my attention away from the saree itself, give the whole ensemble a Victorian look. Does anyone else agree or am I alone on this one?

Traditional dance sarees with velvet lycra blouses

Sunny — Tue, 11 Nov 2008 08:14:00 +0000

Yah, those velvet lycra blouses again! But at times you have no choices left – you have the sarees, and you need the blouses right away for the whole dance troop! Lycra to the rescue!

Rani Mukherji in a dramatic sari blouse design

kamini — Mon, 26 May 2008 14:52:00 +0000

This is a very interesting sari blouse design that Rani is wearing. The sari has a more traditional Rajasthani print on georgette, with subtle silver embellishments. The blouse looks like a combination of traditional colors, 60’s rock, and contemporary design. The traditional print border on the sleeves is offset with a retro polka dot print that shows off the back in a dramatic plunging neckline, ending in a show off bow in the back. And Rani’s beautiful face in silhouette with a simple pair of oversized hoop earrings completes the picture!

Hema Malini in a black chiffon sari and sexy blouse

kamini — Sun, 25 May 2008 15:07:48 +0000

We have all admired how Hema Malini’s dress sense has transitioned over the years to a more sophisticated and sleek look. Hema is also known for owning one of the largest collection of saris.

We love the sari blouse Hema is wearing here. The spaghetti strap sequined blouse is offset by the perfect hair style – light and casual. The delicate silver earring suits her to a T.

Malaika Arora looks hot in a green sari and sexy blouse

kamini — Thu, 01 May 2008 15:49:00 +0000

Malaika Arora is one of those Bollywood babes who looks as good entering a room as she does leaving it. Here she wears a green sari with the tiniest of cholis. The spaghetti strap blouse has a showy ornament on the back.

Satya Paul does it again – in black white and orange

kamini — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 21:05:00 +0000

A classic Satya Paul sari in a graphic pattern splashed with a flaming orange design. The blouse design is very interesting. The orange Cross-your-heart bikini type style has a lower band, and — get this — a fuzzy fake fur collar!

Actress Sushma Reddy sizzles in a sexy barely there blouse

kamini — Mon, 24 Mar 2008 07:58:00 +0000

Actress Sushma Reddy dares to be bare in a fetching blouse trimmed with rhinestones. The hot pink sari is pretty as well, but with the back view like that, who noticed?
