Sari Style

Wearing a pink Benarasi, Rani attended Navami celebrations in Mumbai today. Loved the sari and styling but yet again, her make-up felt heavy-handed.
What say you?

Ufffff the saree is terrific. Wish she went easy on the face cake cos she looks delish otherwise!
What’s up with her make up, traditional wear is her forte and she never gets it wrong! The make up just kills the whole look
I know the makeup is heavy-handed but can we take a moment to applaud her in saris looking far better than any western outfit she’s donned on these pages?!
Maybe makeup appears heavy due to cameras’ light. In videos, it appeared ok. Overall, she looks graceful.
Wow, is that a Kanjivaram? I would have guessed it was a Paithani or Benaras silk. The color is stunning. Rani looks good.
I think it is Kanji vs Benarasi. I could be wrong. These days the kanjivaram designs mimic Benarisis so very closely it is hard outright identify from these pics. Hoping she posts a closeup.
Could you do a post on how to tell the different saree types? Or someone link to a good article? I’d like to learn more
Lovely saree.. and Jewels..
yeah, make up did seem harsh even in other pics and videos.
I love how Rani embraces her roots to the T during Durga Puja festivities
This is not a Kanjivaram saree, it is a Banarasi saree. The zari detailing is much finer in Banarasi sarees as opposed to Kanjivaram.
Sorry- that is just not true. Kanchipuram saris also have intricate zari work-
the way we can tell it is a bananarsi is by the pattern on the pall- Kanchipuram would usually have mango motifs (or something similar) and also have two rows – one at the top and one at the bottom of the thick border running the length of the sari
Not necessarily. I have a Kanjivaram with just flat zari, almost like a fine mesh, no motif at all.
The zari in a Kanjivaram is different in colour and texture from a Banarasi – from what I have seen Banarasi zari can get dark and needs polishing. I have a 60 year old Kanjivaram with the zari looking a bit battered with wear but still golden.
She’s been wearing gorgeous sarees each day. The makeup .. a bit OTT.
Hair looks too severe giving a bit of auntyji vibes.. not that its wrong, but meh…
Love the look. That color is just so gorgeous on her!
The makeup looks ashy because of the flashback I guess.
Amazing saree..
But make up is a horror.
If the Vishwakarma exhibition comes to your city, please do visit. One of the displays has a long length of Kanjivaram zari – with 640!! uniquely different squares of zari patterns. Stunning in that it is both dramatic and very muted and not garish
What a beautiful, beautiful face! Lovely saree and accessories too. I agree, the makeup could’ve been lighter.
Makeup looks a bit off with Clown Cheeks to an otherwise fair look.
Gorgeous sari! wish she had done her hair differently
I just can’t look beyond the clownish make up on Rani on all her pujo looks. Her sarees are gorgeous for sure.
