TOP 4 HEAVY SAREES DESIGNS FOR GUESTS YOU MUST EXPLORE
Here are our top heavy saree picks you can explore when attending a wedding or a festive occasion.
- A Bordered Heavy Saree: A heavy party wear saree with an exquisite border is perfect when attending a wedding. As a guest, you want to make a style statement but don’t want to overshadow the bride. A heavy border creates an extravagant look without going overboard. A heavily adorned border not only adds beauty to the saree but also anchors it, adding structure and elegance. It adds both physical and visual weight to the saree that ensures a beautiful drape and a polished look that looks flattering.
- A Pre-Draped Heavy Saree: Heavy party wear sarees may look great, but draping them is a pain. These are often made from heavier fabrics such as silk, velvet or embellished fabrics that are difficult to manage when not draped properly. A pre-draped saree not only looks graceful but is also fairly convenient to drape with minimum effort. The pre-draped silhouettes ensure the pleats stay intact, and you don’t have to worry about them coming undone. Many pre-draped sarees feature modern cuts, contemporary blouse designs and modern design elements to add a chic twist to the traditional outfit, thus making you stand out from the rest.
- A Heavy Tulle Saree: Heavy tulle sarees often feature rich embroidery, including sequins, stones, and zari work that gives a regal look to your saree. However, the lightweight tulle provides the saree with an airy and dreamy feel, making it ideal for festive and wedding events. Its stiff nature holds the shape of the pleats and the pallu nicely, requiring minimal adjustment throughout the event. Tulle sarees hit the right balance between grace and glamour. They can be styled in traditional and modern ways, making them perfect for any wedding event.
- A Heavy Kanjeevaram Saree: The rich silk fabric and intricate zari work make Kanjeevaram sarees timelessly elegant, whether worn by the bride or guests. The lustrous silk, combined with vibrant colours and intricate gold or silver zari, imparts a regal appearance, which is suitable for celebratory events. These sarees pair beautifully with traditional temple and kundan jewellery, creating an appropriate and cohesive look. A heavy Kanjeevaram saree is an investment piece. Guests can re-wear it to other weddings or festive events, making it both a practical and stylish choice.
