Buying Silk

The body structure is a vital parameter based on which silk is bought. There are a few guidelines that will help when you buy silk according to your physique.

  • Women, who are stout, should go in for softer fabrics like Chiffons, Georgettes, Crepes that drape well. Mysore Silk also helps give a slimmer effect. Organzas, Kora, Tissue silks, must be avoided since they tend to flare.
  • To get a fuller look, slim-built women can preferably choose Organza, Cotton, Tissue and Tussar Sarees.
  • Shorter women need to wear sarees with slim borders or even no borders.
  • Sarees with bigger borders suit women with a tall profile.
  • Shades like Maroon, Green, Pink, and other dark shades go well with women who are on the darker side.
