Smart tips to preserve your favorite sarees !!


Sarees are an implicit part of Indian tradition and women love to have a collection of sarees that will suit their body frame perfectly. If you are a saree lover then there is a possibility that every saree you buy has a certain set of memories attached and this makes your sarees even more special to you. Thus, if you are a smart buyer then you will realize the true importance of money and will make sure that you maintain your saree collection in a perfect condition.

Always keep a good glass tissue saree ready as it will prove handy if you have to attend any party suddenly. Cotton and organza sarees also look elegant and classy but are a bit difficult to maintain. The only flaw in these sarees is that their color starts fading after every wash. So, if you want them to last longer, always starch them after every wash. It will help these sarees to retain their shine for a longer duration.
As far as maintenance of pure georgette or glass tissue sarees is concerned, the important thing that one should keep in mind is that these sarees should always be dry-cleaned. Machine wash or hand-wash can cause serious wear and tear as the fabric might get twisted with these methods. Also, never hang these sarees in cupboard as it will bring unwanted crease on these sarees. The better approach is to keep them folded in a saree cover inside a drawer.  Also, keep changing its folds from time to time as keeping them in folded in one particular position can cause the same problem of unwanted creases, wear and tear.

White sarees add a dash of elegance and are quite appropriate for solemn occasions while red being a strong, popular colour looks quite appropriate for weddings, reception parties and similar such occasions.

However, those of you who find draping a traditional Indian saree one big chore should try a wedding lehenga saree that takes away all the hassle of wearing a saree.Being the perfect blend of a traditional saree and a lehenga choli, a wedding lehenga saree is the perfect party wear saree that is stitched to precise measurements as a long flared skirt having a zip at the side. All one needs to do is to slip in the saree, fasten the zipper and drape the open end (known as pallu) over the shoulders.

This type of saree is very convenient and offers users the freedom from the usual draping and pleating that a regular saree entails.

Before going about purchasing a terry voile salwar kameez, you should understand what a terry voile salwar kameez fabric actually is. Made of a special fabric that consists of 2/81 high twisted fabric in 67:33 blends that is later carborised (subjected to intense heat) to yield 100% polyster fabric, terry voile is the perfect wash and wear fabric which requires very little ironing. It is the ideal salwar kameez fabric that is highly sought after by women for both casual wear and office wear purposes. Terry Voile salwar kameez fabric enjoys enormous popularity among women in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh and the most sought after designs amongst Terri Voile Salwar Kameez are the ones which have divergent patch work at neck and sleeve ends that add a touch of elegance to the overall ensemble.

However, if you are looking to buy a salwar kameez for a special occasion then a wedding chiffon salwar kameez would be the best.

One can choose from a wide range of embroidery options for their chiffon salwar kameez whether it is Aabla, Zardosi, Badla, Aari, Dabka, Cut-Dana, Resham, Sequins or Beads.

Velvette or Viscose --Which one will you try today?


Wondering what to wear for your friend’s wedding on the impending weekend? We suggest you look out for traditional dresses or online Indian sarees from any web portal that caters to Indian tastes and sensibilities. The basic rule of thumb remains the same while buying sarees either from an online store or a showroom. You need to keep your height, skin colour and body type in mind while choosing the right saree. Paying attention to detail helps if you want to get the best value for money in the long run. However, a great majority of women falter on this count and tend to buy what they like instead of buying what is good for them. The net result is that most women feel that they have made the wrong choice and opt for other kinds of traditional wear like lehenga cholis or salwar suits in their next purchase.

Velvette Sarees
Velvette, as a fabric, holds a lot of charm for women. The soft, smooth texture and radiance of this fabric has endeared it to women for centuries. With the increasing popularity of soap operas, Velvette Sarees have gained prominence as most female television actors choose to wear velvet sarees that have endeared them to television audiences owing to their radiance and appeal.Whichever saree you choose to wear keep in mind if you have a shorter frame, you should opt for narrow borders and broad borders if you have a tall, slender frame.
  
Viscose Sarees
Viscose Sarees are essentially made of rayon, a fabric made of artificial fibres that has open pores which enable the fabric to breathe easily making it the ideal fabric for hot and sultry weather of the Indian subcontinent. Another notable aspect of the Viscose fabric is that it dyes quite easily and effectively retains its color which is the main reason why it is used for printed sarees.Viscose Sarees can easily be dyed in the brightest of colors and the fact that they drape quite easily make it a highly sought after option among women. A Zari woven viscose fabric is something that you should try out at least once.

If you keep in mind the above mentioned facts, you will surely end up buying a sari that is a perfect blend of comfort and style and get the maximum bang for your apparel spends.
