Collection: Sarees

Fabulous Saree Styles for Discerning Tastes

In terms of ethnic fashion, sarees are the embodiment of style. Some use up to nine yards of gorgeous fabric, while some are more restrained with just six yards, but they’re all exquisitely refined and will make you feel like a queen. Sarees are true works of art that showcase the diverse traditional styles of India. Although many new clothing innovations have been made since the inception of Sarees, the centuries old traditions still remain respected and preserved.

At StyleCaret, we are honoured to feature one of the largest online catalogues of sarees available on the Internet. Our styles are a stunning combination of modern innovation and ancient tradition.

Today’s trends do influence saree styles and colours, and we intend to keep up to date with that. We literally update the online collection on a daily basis. It’s easy for customers to browse our website and find exactly the right saree for any occasion, whether it’s a business function or a wedding.

Sarees can be worn absolutely anywhere, as long as you pick the right style. Wear one to do your housework, another to sit at your computer in the office, and another to get married. Sarees solve all the issues of “I don’t know what to wear”.

Saree Origins

Sarees started out in ancient Mesopotamia. The Mesopotamians taught the people of India how to weave cotton into practical attire for everyday use. The people of the Indus valley wrapped the fabric around their waists, gathering it up to allow them to move freely. Historical records show that this style of dress was also worn in Egypt, Sumer and by the Assyrians.

A Special Online Saree Assortment

We believe that your saree collection should be one that bows to traditional values yet is also on trend with new patterns and colours. Our beautiful collections have something for everyone and every occasion, for example multi-coloured fabrics, exquisite lace work creations and modern print designs. Our traditional sarees are works of art with their Resham embroidery on silk. We also stock bandhanis, half-half drapes and Kanjivaram sarees.

You’ll find a whole spectrum of colours, which is exactly what Indian fabrics are known for. Even the plainest style can be striking in a beautiful colour. We at StyleCaret want to keep up the colourful Indian tradition which is why we are right on trend with this season’s hues. At the moment it’s Rani pink, striking peacock blues, dramatic blacks, head-turning reds and vibrant oranges.

Choosing the Right Saree

As with any fashion trend, different shaped figures look better in particular type of sarees. Those with an apple shape body need to pick a saree that drapes carefully over the stomach and bust region to hide these trouble spots. Try a silk saree combined with stunning Jhumki earrings to draw attention away from the trouble spots.

For those with an hourglass figure, you should probably go for fabrics like georgettes and chiffons in bright colours, with large patterned edges and tiny prints. You are guaranteed to look beautiful whatever the occasion may be.

If you have a strong, athletic build, you can probably wear anything! Create more of a defined waist by wrapping it with cotton, silk or organza in soft feminine colours.
