The cotton saree, with its numerous regional interpretations, has proven to be a 6-yard-long, unstitched piece of living society. Its quality all through times of history, centuries apart, is a demonstration of its timelessness. The ethnic saree has not only been a piece of the Indian closet but also lies at the core of India's identity. As trends are coming in and going rapidly, the saree has also stepped in with numerous ways to style it. So, get on with the trends and style your cotton saree in these 5 unconventional draping styles.
Belt it out
Wrap your cotton saree the typical way and simply add a belt that secures your pallu at the abdomen. You can even utilize a kamarbandh assuming you need to go for a more customary look. A statement saree blouse like an off-shoulder would add some punch to your outfit.
Scarf Season
Drape your cotton saree along with your saree blouse the usual way and all you gotta do is wrap the pallu around your neck like a scarf. You'll have to keep the length of your pallu longer to achieve this style. You can even experiment with as many scarf styles as you like.
As Flowy as a Mermaid
This style of draping spreads out the lower part of the pleats, which in turn, look like the tail of a mermaid. Start off with draping your cotton saree along with your saree blouse the usual way and then add in a few extra tucks and pleats. It might look like a lot of work, but it’ll give you a beautiful and clean look.
The Butterfly Style
This draping style is not only stylish, but it also plays with your appearance by making you look slimmer. Start off with draping your cotton saree along with your saree blouse the usual way and then make extra thin pleats of your pallu and pin it on your shoulders.
Slay in Front Pallu
This is the easiest one. Start off with draping your cotton saree along with your saree blouse the usual way and then instead of carrying over the pallu to your left shoulder, you carry it from the back to your right shoulder. While the Gujarati style involves spreading out of the pleats, you can choose not to as well.
