Women and saris hold a close-knit affair that has been going on for years. And why not? Saris are one of the most sophisticated attires that enhance the femininity of any woman. Be it a party wear sari, designer sari or a simple casual sari to wear at work, the elegance of the sari will never fail to add grace and elegance to your look. However, with the changing seasons, sari trends also change; and with the monsoon season, it becomes critical to keep up with the monsoon-friendly sari trends to keep your look safe from the rains and splashing water puddles.
Saurabh Shah, Owner, Zari Banaras shares latest sari trends that will switch up your rain-sari look without having to compromise on either style or comfort.
The right fabric
The primary step to decoding monsoon dressing is choosing the right fabric. With monsoon humidity, it is important to wear breathable clothes and make fashionably favourable choices. One should go for lightweight fabrics in choosing their sari collection. Going for a lightweight fabric will allow you to breathe through it and keep you comfortable throughout the day. Not only this, the fabrics including georgette, rayon, crepe and net are extremely easy to carry and wrap around in saris and even make your look stunning.
However, keep bay with lightweight fabrics like chiffon and silk in monsoon as they tend to stick to the skin when wet and will lead to suffocation.
The right colours
In sync with trends from all around the year, bright and vibrant colours including shades of purples, pinks, yellows, indigo and other such merry colours are wonderful to flaunt and have found a predominant place in the wardrobes of people this season. It is best to avoid softer shades like pastels, no matter how much they tempt you keeping in mind the muddy and wet streets.
However, avoid wearing light colours like white and beige because they very easily get stained in the monsoon season, and can also potentially become transparent when wet.
Get creative
Globally, divas are wearing saris and pairing them with out-of-the box clothing items like jeggings or jeans and ditching the underskirt instead. Such styles have been featured in eminent magazines including Vogue and are very trending right now.
Monsoon season is all about fun, freshness and joy, so let yourself loose and feel free to experiment and have fun as much as you can. Your creative unique styles will allow you to make a statement like never before!
