The Olympic sport of wearing saree low – beyond wearing a saree below the navel
I am going to check to see if in 2010 Asian Games and in 2010 Olympic games a new sport of “how low can you wear a saree” has been added or not. It sure seems that way. It wasn’t long ago when people were wondering if it is OK to wear saree below the navel and now the question is how low can you wear it.
I have heard of pushing the envelope proverb, but do they have to literally apply it to the saree?
The competition is how low can you wear it. Some time it is sexy, navalecious, I call it, but when it is forced it just looks lewd.
Sexy Shriya navelicious saree
She normally doesn’t wear her sarees so much below the navel, really, she doesn’t. But in this case, it is that darn chabi gucchha (keyring) hanging from the saree that is pulling it down. I swear!
How low can you go: accentuating the bootie – but no whale tail!
Ok, how many of you thought that I was talking about accentuating the booties, the small repeated embroidery, on the saree? Any body?!!
Just because it is Friday, I shouldn’t dip so low… but while I have my gaze fixated in the southernly direction of Ms. Shalini Sahuta’s figure, lets me admire the shapely and sexy silhouette this saree creates.
You might not want to wear it this way, but isn’t it good to know that you can, if you want to.
I find this a little more evocative than the saree “below the navel” preference that Indian culture has.
I never thought about it, but I wonder if you can show a whale-tail when you are wearing a saree. Technically it shouldn’t be possible, but in some neo sarees … may be…
Going Green
I know, I know, what this saree is about – but its Friday evening, we all got to let loose sometime!
How can you fault somebody for going geen?
Sabki ladli bebo
Like the magenta color – hate the plain blouse. I see the neck design but otherwise it seems a bit sparse to me.
From Sabki ladli bebo – Bebo Narang is her stage name and Shivshakti Sachdeva is her real name. She has certain innocence on her face.
