It’s all about choosing the right fabric. A saree in a right fabric draped gracefully (fitted neatly and without any unnecessary tuck-ins) can literally make you look 5 pounds lighter.

• Pick lighter fabrics such as georgettes, chiffons, crepe, etc. instead of stiff ones. Avoid heavy cotton which will make you look heavier.

• Always buy saris which will drape and fit close to your body.

• Avoid light shades. Dark and enriching colors works best if you are overweight.

• Make sure your saree is draped neatly. (Do not tuck in unnecessarily to adjust the look of your saree)

• If your saree is of a heavy or thick fabric, then avoid tucking too many pleats at the waist. Gracefully, adjust the length of your saree so that it’s evenly draped across your body.

• Avoid shiny or glossy fabrics.
