JEWEL ENCRUSTED CLOTHING

This season doesn’t restrict jewels to just jewellery and accessories but has found its way to adorn outfits and items of clothing. It’s not the first time that bejewelled outfits have been popular but they are back this year with a brighter, bolder and more elegant look. This time around the pieces are not just embellished with jewels but also with a wide variety of trims like shells, fabrics, expensive pearls, stunning and unique beads, threads, ribbons, lurex, etc. The idea is to create a luxurious and exotic look with a somewhat understated glamorous touch.

Since the sari has been considered as the most important item of clothing, for ages, when it comes to the Indian woman, it’s only natural that this Indian garment would undergo various kinds of experimentation and metamorphosis. True that the saree rules when it comes to versatility as this gorgeous 5 - 5.5 metres of cloth could be draped in numerous ways. In India, each region boasts of its own way of draping a saree. By virtue of its being an unstitched piece of cloth, the sari provides its wearer with multiple options to choose from, when it comes to draping it.
Along with the addition of new ways and style of draping a sari, recent times have witnessed certain changes in the sari itself, to give it a fashionable and modern touch. One such example would be the ‘butterfly pallu sari’ which was quite a rage few years back. A ‘butterfly pallu saree’ is similar to the ordinary sari except for the pallu. In a ‘butterfly pallu sari’, after a certain part the width gradually narrows to a few inches till it reaches the shoulder and the pallu flares out from the shoulder to almost its original width. It is similar to the effect created by an ordinary saree when the pallu is pleated and pinned to the shoulder part of the blouse. ‘Butterfly pallu sari’ achieves the same look without the pleats, hence imparting a modern and urbane look.

Another example of a modified saree is the ‘Lehenga style sari’, a trend that is catching up pretty fast. Once again, it is similar to the ordinary saree except for, in this case, the pleats part. While an ordinary sari requires pleats to be formed and tucked into the waist, a ‘Lehenga styled sari’ relieves its wearer of this bit of work. It simply doesn’t require any pleats. That doesn’t mean it looks plain and boring. It looks anything but that!!

Where pleats form an integral part of an ordinary saree, the ‘Lehnga style saree’ flaunts embellished flared patchwork at the front. It could be in the form of embellished godets, embellished panels or just a single wide embellished panel or godet at the front. Quite often, a ‘Lehnga styled sari’ flaunts a pallu in contrast color. This, further, makes the saree attractive and eye-catching.

The next question would be- how is it draped or worn? It’s easy. It’s draped just like a saree, without the pleats of course. However, there are various kinds of ‘Lehenga style sari’ and some varieties would require a different method of wearing it. But most of the ‘Lehenga style saris’ are draped like an ordinary saree. Since it is draped like an ordinary saree, accessories such as a blouse or choli and a petticoat are indispensable. It’s a good idea to stitch the blouse or choli of a ‘Lehnga styled sari’ with a fashionable design and cut. Think bikini style blouse, halter neck blouse, blouse with spaghetti straps, bustier blouse, etc.
