As a dress, the saree is extremely versatile. From 5 yards to 9.5 yards tied loosely, folded and pleated, it could be turned into working dress or party-wear with manual skill. For day to day work of middle class women, 5-6 yard sari is comfortable to manage household chores. The working class takes the same length of cloth and tucks it above the ankles and if they have to work in water or fields, they tuck the front pleats between the legs to the back, and tie the upper portion round the waist. But, for formal occasions, festivals or parties, women go all the way to bring out the best of blingy sarees.
For such gatherings, crepe sarees are the best option available. Crepe sarees have an ultra modern look without being too cumbersome to wear. Crepe sarees are designed to make a woman feel gorgeous without too much effort. Crepe sarees also include georgette and chiffon which look very sober but give an overall glamorous look. The lightweight fabric flatters all figure types and gives the wearer a slimmer sillhoutte.
The crepe fabric is very thin and crinkled. The texture is usually woven in silk giving the finished fabric a rich look. However, there are other base fabrics available in crepe too. The silk crepe is the most preferred of all. It is soft to touch and has a good drape. Crepe sarees come in a wide range of colours and designs. While those worked in resham zari is good for fancy wear, printed crepe sarees are popular as regular wear sarees. The zari embellished sarees have golden, silver or coppery thread work done on them with beading and sequins sewed on. The fashion conscious women of today love crepe sarees for their versatile look.
Crepe sarees are very popular among the middle class ladies in India. Crepe sarees can be bought in a varied mix of designs which can be matched with each other to suit the occasion. Thus, with the right accessories, crepe sarees can be worn to the office as well as to parties.
Fancy crepe sarees are very appropriate for weddings too. As a result, you can see brides buying crepe sarees for their trousseau while friends and sisters of the bride deck up in elaborate crepe sarees for the ceremony.
The latest trends in crepe sarees veer towards the designer varieties. Designer crepe sarees come in ranges like:
Fancy crepe sarees
Crepe silk sarees
Indian crepe silk sarees
Fancy synthetic crepe sarees and more.
Designer sarees are available with intricate patterns such as embroidery, kanth work, patch work, gold embossing, sequins, mirror work and zari. The patterns are often mixed and matched for a varied look. The largest inspiration for crepe saree designs come from bollywood stars who regularly wear gorgeous crepe creations onscreen. It is therefore not surprising that designers, high end or small time, are constantly coming up with new designs in crepe sarees to give this traditional attire a chic twist.
