6 Striped Sarees To Flaunt This Season

Saree is an evergreen garment. It is a single piece of cloth that is six to nine yards long and is loved by women all over the world. It’s by far the only clothing known to mankind which isn’t bound by specific rules of structure and composition. It can be draped and styled in various ways. And it also has the power to transform the most tomboyish of girls into stunning and elegant divas. Such is the power of the humble saree!

Instead of becoming archaic and out of date, saree has kept pace with changing times by constantly evolving and accommodating changing trends and preferences of women. The fact that it is available in such a wide variety of textures and fabric has also contributed to this. From traditional silk sarees to contemporary georgette sarees, there is so much of variety from which one can choose from.

Now if you were to ask us to give you an example of one such emerging trend, our answer would be “striped sarees.” Striped designs are already very popular in other garments such as skirts, tops, dresses, etc. but of late they have crossed over to sarees as well. Accommodating this design element has given the garment a modern makeover making it multipurpose. A striped saree makes for perfect office-wear, and it can be flaunted at a party too. Here’s a sneak peek into the striped world of sarees. Find yourself some stripe-inspiration now.

1. The Striped Cotton Silk

There is nothing quite sensuous and sensible like a traditional cotton silk saree with black and white stripes, right? A tiny gold border adds the south Indian touch to the saree. You don’t have to do much while styling this one. A contrast blouse, a statement choker or huge jhumkas will seal the look! It’s a smart and simple choice for office wear and it can be worn to attend small house functions too.

2. The Summer-Inspired Striped Saree

Summer is all about fun and frolic and this summer-inspired saree proves just that. We absolutely love how this saree has made use of simple bright summer colors in striped patterns. The floral border of the saree and the flirty pink frills of the bright yellow blouse add a fun element to this entire look. This saree tops the list of our summer must-haves for sure. It’s such a pleasant saree, isn’t it? If you come across a saree like this, do make it a part of your summer wardrobe and join in the summer fun!

3. The Sequined Striped Saree

If striped prints aren’t your thing, then go for sarees that have embellishments in striped patterns, just like this one worn by Bollywood actress, Karisma Kapoor. A black saree is a mandatory staple in every saree lover’s collection. This black saree has gold sequins embroidered into striped patterns. The contrast beige blouse goes oh-so-perfectly with the saree, giving it an elegant finish. Such sarees can be worn at a wedding or other such gatherings and functions.

4. The Striped Printed Saree

Shilpa Shetty Kundra is known to turn heads with her saree looks. She always wears sarees in a very contemporary way, which looks very comfortable for everyday wear. The saree that we have chosen for our list is also like that. It has tiny prints in a striped pattern. This simple saree gets a much more unique look, thanks to the peplum style blouse. Shilpa’s saree fashion has been inspiring many women to go for the garment, and even this one succeeds in doing so.

5. The Multi-Colored Stripe Pattern Saree

Who said a striped saree should only consist of a single striped style? Look at this beautiful saree worn by Samantha; it slays the striped style so elegantly! It has three striped styles that contrast with each other directionally. The vertical, the diagonal, and the broad stripes in this saree make it a modern saree that one must include in their saree collection. This kind of saree can be worn either with a traditional blouse or with a crop top blouse just as it is worn by Samantha.

6. The Ikkat-Striped Cotton Saree

This saree has stripe patterns in a profusion of the Ikat weaves. The design is made by employing the tie-and-dye technique. This saree’s original name is Sarabandha, an Odisha Ikkat where “sare” meaning everything and “bandha” meaning tie and dye. Sometimes, we buy and wear sarees that are reminiscent of a tradition that has been practiced for centuries, and this saree falls into that category.
