Sari Style

Comment image 23


Wearing saris, these young ladies attended the Kashyap-Gregoire engagement party on Thursay evening with Khushi and Suhana wearing Arpita Mehta and Palak, one from Dolly J. They all looked nice but Suhana’s blue caught my eye the most.

  1. 3 back to back saree posts.. with similar template of draping..
    looks like we’ll just have to accept one boob drape as the new normal..

    • Out of curiosity and genuinely wanting to know (not being snarky here), what is wrong with the one boob drape? It’s how I and many people I know drape our saris, I prefer it that way on me. Are we all really supposed to wear our clothes in the exact same way?

      • Not an issue with the one boob drape if the blouse is done right
        These bras disguising as blouse n then the one boob drape looks kinda distasteful imho..

      • Every generation faces this kind of judgement from an earlier, more conservative bunch. Back in the day, we oldies were told not to wear tight jeans, low waisted jeans, figure hugging tees, skirts with slits, or to tuck in the shirts into the jeans. Hard to believe, I am sure. And I bet many of us who faced those comments and rebelled against them are part of the army for the defence of the saree as it “should be worn”.

  2. I like Palak and Khushi’s sarees, now that they’re not gonna go back on bras as blouses cruet pls make them more comfortable and less plungey or mishap prone.

  3. Love seeing the young uns in sarees. And please, let’s not start on the “one-boob drape”. Every generation must own the saree their own way. As long as no one’s making it prescriptive, chill.

  4. Suhana’s sari blue, clutch blue and footwear blue(?) are all mismatched. Soo much money, resources and this is what she shows up as. Strictly, it is the “sari” and the color that is gorgeous and staling the show, not the way it was styled or the personel donning it.

  5. Young women try and make their own fashion and for this generation it is skimpy blouses and midriff baring. Just like 60s was about showing off legs or 50s had poimty bras. All these always look bad to their elders. Guess if anyone complains only indicates their age:)

    • Not all of us who are older are so conservative and judgy. These comments protesting the drape of the saree, all those one-boob comments, reveal a hide-bound mindset, regardless of age. This is sartorial fundamentalism at work

  6. Ummm sorry.. I did get a lot of backlash on this topic few days back from my fellow lovely HHC readers? But is this a trend beyond insta and bollywood? I will believe that when I see all kinds of women wear this – from the municipality women who sweep our streets to the women who serve in our embassies across the globe! Hard to take it seriously and call it a trend.

    • With you on this, a blouse n a saree are an infinite match and can’t be changed or replaced, if you want it to look like a saree we’ve grown to adore.
      Add a bra or a tube or a xyz to jazz up the saree look and defend it all you can, but saree+blouse+drape is untouched.

    • You know the history of Sari, and the different ways to drape, pallus, length of sari material etc. Should we all wear saris the way fisherwomen of Maharashtra wear them? Or should we wear them the way bengali women drape them? or how abt a lot of punjabi/haryanvi women who dont even wear sari. Should we expel them from the country. Why do you guys wanna be nazis about how people chose to wear a garment. And then we women complain, that men/society police our sartorial choices. You are the doing the same. Grand standing under a false pretense of upholding “tradition”

  7. The saris are traditional fare and picking a winner is an overkill – it is only about outdoing with poses and pouts. While Suhana got more press, I think the other two also held their own.
