Half Saree – The Latest Trends in Ethnic Wear

Half sarees are hot! Hot! Hot! this season. The half sarees are full of designs, colors, and trends lately making a pleasant comeback. They are worn at parties, weddings, dinners, etc. These sarees are so versatile and comfortable in their ensemble that they go with almost every occasion.

The quintessential South Indian half saree with a simple golden zardozi bordered dupatta is extremely popular these days. They look perfect clubbed with bright colors and a simple yet bold, stiff fabric like cotton silk or Tussar silk. The raging Half and Half Sarees are a fairly recent trend and do look striking with their pleats in a color different from the rest of the saree giving two sarees in one illusion. Let’s take a look at half sarees collections with different colors, designs, and trends causing a stir this season. Visually engaging embroidery work, Strikingly and contrasting colors engulfed with several fabrics make them an interesting choice for women of all age groups and complexions.

There is a lot of experimentation that can be done with the dupatta pallu of a half saree. You can wear it with Seedha palla or Ulta palla.

Fusion Colour

Fusion Colour would be the top trend on my list – Half saris fused with a dark-colored blouse and petticoat tied together with a neon-colored dupatta pallu is a unique and classy way of wearing this garment. The base colors once set can be built upon by zari embroidery on the pallu border and blouse sleeves. E.g. a deep blue blouse and petticoat along with neon green pallu will make sure you get noticed.

The Ruffled look

Here the trick lies with the stitching of the skirt. It is a common and well-observed trend. It is adorned with floral motifs and a zari border.

The Kacchi Mirrored blouse

This trend comes from the fusion of a Kacchi blouse and Chaniya choli. The half-saree blouse is the star of this style. It is heavily embellished with patchwork and mirrors and makes for an instantly striking Kacchi Chaniya choli style half sari.

Kalidaar Half Saree

This look is royal and reminds me of the North Indian lehenga. The skirt in this style is beautiful synchrony of Kalis, which flowers up when the wearer dances or walks. It truly hides any wobbly bits of cellulite your body has and makes sure it drapes beautifully. You cannot go wrong with this style.

The Banarasi Babe

A Banarasi brocade skirt thinly veiled by another sheer or Georgette skirt is a match made in heaven. Whether it is a part of your wedding trousseau or whether you adorn it at an after-hour cocktail party this style never grows old and it never looks overdone. Just make sure you wear it with a simple or a thinly floral bordered pallu and a brocade blouse.

The Half And Half Saree

As discussed earlier this one is an illusion garment that opens the way for thousands of permutations and combinations but its original concept of having plates of a starkly different color than the rest of the saree is my favorite. The skirt with a sheer outer layer accentuated with Gota work and an elegant dupatta enhanced with a decorated edging with random motifs on the body.

There are several Bollywood Divas like Deepika Padukone, Asin, Sridevi, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Shilpa Shetty, Anushka Sharma, Sonakshi Sinha, Madhuri Dixit, Priyanka Chopra, etc. loving and living this trend.

Our talented Indian designers like Sabyasachi Mukherjee, Manish Malhotra, Bhargavi Kunam, Shivan, and Narresh are making sure that this trend gains pace. You need not spend a million buck to look like a diva, just get inspired and give it your style.

There are unlimited exuberance and unbeatable creative scope in this ever so beautiful trend. Not only is this garment eye-catching it is also comfortable to carry around well. We won’t miss out on dancing our hearts out at parties just because our pleats or pallus are falling apart. Thanks to the half sarees!
