How to Style Banarasi Sarees: Draping & Accessorizing Tips

Banarasi sarees are a statement in themselves, but the right styling can elevate your look to regal heights. Here are some expert tips from Chandraroop:

Drape Styles: The classic Nivi style works for most occasions, but for traditional events, try the Bengali or Gujarati drape. For Maharashtrian weddings, the Nauvari drape adds cultural depth.

Blouse Pairing: Opt for contrasting blouses with intricate embroidery or go for deep backs and boat necks to add a modern twist. Velvet or raw silk blouses enhance the richness of the Banarasi weave.

Accessorize Elegantly: Statement jewelry is key. Traditional gold jhumkas, temple jewelry, or Kundan sets add regal elegance. Don’t forget a maang tikka or kamarbandh for that bridal or festive vibe.

Footwear & Clutches: Pair your saree with embellished juttis or heels, and carry a matching potli or clutch to complete the look.
