No, this is not how you wear a saree, but it is kind of innovative!

Funny how we hardly notice the details of the sarees that turns a glamorous actress like Isha into a ‘rowdy rakamma’ character like ‘Shabri’ in this Ram Gopal Varma film.

Simple cotton saree in pastel coloured usually have small flower prints … often boldly paired with unmatching and unflattering plain blouses. I have seen this type of sarees so many times and I have ignored them. I wonder how will I look like in them…hmmm.

Saree or not a saree?

Sameera Reddy in a saree that is beautiful because it is incomplete.
I love the drape, it is kind of inviting!

Love the contrast between these two drapes.

Try doing this with a dress you bought from Macys.

Saree has some pleasing floral motif, but nothing to write home about.

Teal blue printed chanderi cotton sari with burnt sienna print all over. Bottle green and maroon ‘zari’ embellished traditional print on primrose yellow base adorn the border and ‘pallu’.

‘Pallu’ is the end piece of the sari usually draped over the shoulder and commonly carries distinct and heavy surface ornamentation.

Interesting saree presentation

I wouldn’t say that she is wearing or draping a saree – it’s an interesting way to show it off.

I really like the way it looks though! Sort of like having a train.
