Tips to put together a chiffon saree with border

Chiffon Saree with Border:Maharani Gayatri Devi was known to be the inspiration behind the classic chiffon sarees with the pearls look and this has been followed by the Royalty ever since. In those days the Royalty would get their exquisite chiffons from Lyon France and Europe, but fortunately now we can get beautiful floral and plain chiffons from our own desi Garden Vareli showrooms, though not of the same quality as the royalty had.

Sabyasaachi had also given Sridevi the floral print chiffon saree in the movie English Vinglish as part of her Saree collection in the movie.

Tips to put a chiffon saree with border

1.Depending on your height choose a chiffon saree with a floral print. For those with short stature choose small prints. The tall ones can carry off the bold floral prints.

2.There should be no embellishments like embroidery or sequins on the saree.

3.The colour of the brocade border should ideally be lighter than the body of the sari, dominant in silver or gold with a pattern reflecting subtly the colour of the sari.

4.When working with printed chiffon saris, choose a finer allover print rather than a bold, loud design so that the pattern does not compete with the border for attention.

5.You could also add a plain border in  a slight contrast to the saree colour, but it shoudld'nt stand out.

6. Dont fold multiple pleats and wear chiffons ,as a single pleat elevates the saree look.

7. A princess-cut high blouse would be the best to wear when you go for the single pleat- NO plunging necklines either in the front or back please!

8.Jewelry should be minnimal and the saree looks best when worn in the day time.

You can check out Taapsee in a floral chiffon saree which she wore for the  ramp walk at an event for the Surat Dreams Fashion Show.

Dressed in a brown saree with big flowers and small bright yellow border, her hair was done up in high coiffure with minimal jewelry.But we would have been happy if she wore the necklace on her neck rather than in the hair. The 70’s retro flower power look is  pretty don’t you think?
