Office formals the classic traditional way

Today while they create outfits for all sorts of occasions and events, we have also paid attention for the liberated woman's need of office where to look in accordance with the spirit of the times freed of the shackles of stereotype and conformity, and giving wings to the imagination.

Here are tips that you can follow if you wish to drape a saree for work place

Colour makes a difference

While at the workplace it reflects our attitude of focus and purpose towards the work.

Knowing this the mature professional tends to go in for the mellow colors, the pastel hues, the earthy shades that while enriching the environment do not call too much attention to the wearer.

The blouse also matters

The blouse is an accompaniment to the saree and should rightly complement the saree. The same color as the saree is best, but one can always wear the soft colors that match.

This is known through observation and experimenting. It should be comfortable, not reveal much and not be very over ornate with embroidery, that it draws attention.

Boat necks and collar necks, the long sleeves and edgy back designs are ways to make the blouse stand out, yet not trying to grab attention.

The right fabric elevates the appearance

Cotton is the most preferred fabric, but the care is also very tiresome. Starched they look neat and crisp but also crease fast. With every wash come the wrinkles that have to be smooth-ironed which is quite cumbersome.

For regular wear, fabrics like dupion silk, rayon, chiffon and georgette, that are smooth flowing, light, fairly absorbent and which come with pretty designs would be good to choose from. Rayon especially is widely popular.

The chiffon sarees and georgette sarees are also good but if the quality of the fabric were to be inferior then it would show you in a poor light.

Choosing the design of the sari

While bold prints get bad satres, the medium-size work best to spruce up your appearance. The small motifs, in floral, geometric or the abstract appear nice and make you look thinner than you are.

Some prefer the nice plain solid colored sarees online with the simple contrast borders. They can never go wrong.

Embroidered sarees can safely be given a miss for the office. If the color is nice, then let it be there without calling for attention.
