Saree Tips for Plus Size Women

The society we live in has set many norms for women in their every activity. Their thought process about women is that they are supposed to be fair, thin, average build, etc. The women who are on the bigger side of weight have always been body-shamed. Now, in this millennial world people from both genders can fight for themself. Women from the plus-size club have now come of their bounds and made their stand as real humans who deserve every ounce of respect too. 

Curvy women always have the insecurity of wearing the appropriate type of clothing to avoid being degraded by their overweight issues. But they do not realize how well they can carry themselves with pride and they look the most beautiful just the way they are. 

Sarees are dresses meant for every Indian woman irrespective of their background or form. Just like any other outfit, wearing a saree for a certain body type has some rules to be followed. By rules, we mean tricks that make a clothing piece look ravishing on a person. 

Mirra Clothing offers a satisfactory collection of sarees for plus-size women who can effortlessly look alluring and divine by draping it to their favorite outing. 

By color 

Colors are the most exciting factors that one can find in Indian clothing. While many trending colors are used for festivals or weddings in many outfits, sarees with multi or even a single color looks promising when matched with the right proportion of additional work and blouse design.

It is normally advised for plus size women to wear crisp sarees that are medium-dark to dark hues as it will better cover up their unwanted curves. The shades that are best recommended for overweight women are black, purple, royal blue, maroon, bottle green, etc. These hues don’t just make the curvy women look beautiful without any effort but also let them gain their confidence and self-esteem back wherever they are. 

Do not try to combine any two or three kinds of shades as it might turn more disastrous. So focus on the one unique shade and stick with it till you pull it out flawlessly. But if you are someone who carves to wear pastel colors or lighter tones like sky blue, orange, yellow, etc then do not refrain from yourself experimenting with colors. Instead of modifying the color palette, you can change the print size, border length, fabric, or the draping method too.  

Your creativity level can surely be changed with the way you look more optimistic with your every saree look.

By the design work 

When we look at sarees in the view of designs, then it is the distinct case for overweight women. Meaning to say the larger the curves of a woman are highlighted the smaller the motifs must be on her dress to equally balance the core.

Small motifs like leaves, flowers, artistic drawings are more likely to look explicit on fatter women. If you wear a saree with huge borders and large temple designs, they will tend to just make the whole outfit look larger. It will be grand but it can hurt your body too. So it is purely advisable to wear sarees of smaller prints and thin borders.

Organza sarees

Organza sarees are sarees that make a woman look divine and elegant too. They look delicate and are light in their weight. Organza sarees might seem a little too subtle to handle but their weaves and their fabric material are strong than ever imagined. 

It is a perfect reason to look slim in sarees and to enjoy the various prints that are flawlessly designed onto the entire material of the saree. So these sarees are a great way for curvy women to fall back in love with sarees.

Draping Techniques

The way you drape your saree can also make a significant difference. Here are a few tips:

• High Waist Draping: This technique can elongate your legs and create a more defined waistline. It works particularly well with lighter fabrics.
• Pallu Placement: Consider how you style the pallu (the decorative end of the saree). Draping it over the shoulder or around the arm can create a flattering frame for your face.
• Experiment with Different Styles: Don’t be afraid to try different draping styles, such as the Bengali or Maharashtrian drape, to find what suits you best.
