There was a time when every girl owned / must own half sarees before they got married. This was the time when salwars were not that popular and girls flaunted their half saree looks. Now this modest outfit has made a comeback in a fancy range that it has become a must have. Here are some must have half saree options that will give you an idea of what to pick up.
1. Simple Half Sarees
These are the light weight ones with not much bling. You can wear these for simple functions. Add fancy accessories to glam up yourself. Try the half sarees with checks or the plain ones with a contrast pallu.
2. Traditional Half Sarees
These are the half sarees that would look royal for a wedding. Instead of a saree which you wear all the time, try a half saree in Kanjeevaram or Banarasi silk. Colors like crimson, pink and green work very well. You can try fancy blouse options too if you are not a very traditional attire wearing person. Accessorizing it with heavy jhumkas, bangles and potli bags will seal this look for you.
3. Designer Half Sarees
Every bride, everyone who is attending a wedding should buy this. You have a lot of options with the designer half saree and you could wear it with a different drape as a lehenga too. Heavy accessories and makeup will make you look the complete package.
4. Half Sarees with big borders
Heavy or big borders are a hit be it in sarees or half sarees. It need not be a zari border. A heavy zardosi work border looks or a contrast color border looks equally striking and creates a very rich look.
