More about Look

Malaika Arora adopted a stunning red saree look. She wore a shiny satin saree, where the red glow of the saree fabric exuded a desi oomph that is equally contemporary and traditional. She wore thick golden bangles and a choker with the saree. The combination of red and gold is a match made in heaven. It is a quintessential desi color and when incorporated into a saree look, it creates unconditional traditional charm.

Why is this saree look unique?

What makes this saree wearing style different is how beautifully traditional the saree looks in the way it is worn. Generally, contemporary saree styles lean towards streamlined, mermaid styles to further accentuate the silhouette.

With so much emphasis on defining proportions and body shape, there has been a move away from the old-fashioned saree materials and draping styles that emerge. With such a focus on flattering the figure, there is a sharp aversion to anything that might flare up – be it the pallu or the saree material. The pallu of the saree becomes thinner and the pleats also become less structured and more fluid.

That’s why Malaika’s saree look is noteworthy, because it shows that raised pallos don’t need to be in opposition. There is always a competition to make the saree more shapely and comfortable. But following the rule of ‘less is more’, Malaika’s style is glamorous and gorgeous.

So what are some style takeaways you can get?

• The sequin and georgette saree can be your favorite as it gives you a stripped down look. But like Malaika, try a silk or satin saree and go for a large pallu and structured pleats.
• There’s no need to be decked out in sequins, rhinestones, or mirrorwork all the time. Even simple solid colors can be beautiful. Most of the time, solid colors are sidelined with bejeweled elements to pursue mirrorball aesthetics.
• Gold and red color combo is preferred for any ethnic wear.
• If the color of the saree is light then choose thick jewellery- heavy chokers and bangles. Malaika’s satin saree is balanced with her heavy jewellery.
