Different Saree Draping Styles To Get A Unique Look

The wedding season has kicked off and it's time to take out your traditional clothes. From trendy lehengas and palazzos to Anarkali and sarees, you have a lot of options to choose from. If you’re a saree buff and want to wear a saree at a wedding but not in the conventional way, let’s give you some tips to wear a saree in different styles.

The six yards of grace – Indian saree can be draped in modern and unconventional ways to give it a unique look.

You can either pleat up the saree or go for a casual drape. These are the most common ways of wearing a saree. But today, we will look at some quirky saree draping styles that are perfect for a wedding or any other occasion where you want to stand out from the rest.

Pant Style Saree

The pant style saree is inspired by the Indo-western combination and is easy to wear, comfortable, functional, and super chic. This drape style is perfect for reception and cocktails. If you’re a bride, you can wear this saree at your Mehendi function to look super cool.

Dhoti Style Saree 

This style is very similar to the pant style drape, except for the dhoti in place of pants. It looks contemporary and gives you an effortless style statement. This style is popularized by gorgeous Bollywood actresses. You just have to replace the petticoat with a legging for better draping.

Belted Saree

The belt style saree is quite popular and yes, the trends flow from Bollywood. All you have to do is to drape your saree in a pleated pallu and then add a belt that cinches your saree’s pallu at the waist. For a more traditional look, you can even go with a kamarbandh. A statement off-shoulder or sleeveless blouse will further add a zing to your ensemble.

Skirt Saree

We are in love with this saree draping style as it is unconventional, unique, comfortable, and super stylish. This style is perfect for brides and bridesmaids or even when attending a wedding. In this style, the saree is draped over a flared skirt with a pleated pallu. You can further amp up the look with a belt and a statement blouse.

Lehenga Saree

Lehenga saree is similar to the skirt style saree; however the saree looks more like a lehenga in this one. You will have to arrange the pleats across your waistline, like a lehenga’s dupatta. It is the best way to make use of your regular lehenga by draping a traditional silk saree over it.

Scarf Saree

The scarf saree is a bold style statement and should be carried with care. Here, all you need to do is to drape the pallu around your neck like a scarf. To achieve this look, you will have to keep the pallu longer. Also, this style suits women who have a petite figure.

Butterfly Style Saree

The butterfly style saree is the perfect way to look slimmer. You just have to pleat the pallu in very thin pleats and place them on the shoulder. This saree highlights your waist area and looks extremely stylish.

Apart from these Indo-western saree draping styles, you can also go with traditional drapes like a Gujarati or Maharashtrian style saree drape.
