  • Pleats should be even and neatly tucked.

  • For example stiff cotton saris give heavy look so these are not suitable for overweight women.

The Prints on the Saree:

  • Women generally should avoid big and large prints as they make you look large and gaudy.
  • If short women wear sarees with large prints then they look odd and shorter.
  • Small floral and leafy prints are evergreen and every women can wear such sarees.

  • Border of a saree also play an important role in women’s personality in a saree.
  • Most of the designers advise to go for saree with no border or shorter border if your height is short.
  • If you are tall then you should wear sarees with broad border.

Color of the Saree:

  • For example for overweight ladies dark colors are best.
  • It is not only for sarees but all other dresses in dark colors make a plus size women look slim and beautiful.

Embroidery Work, Zari Work, Stone Work, Heavy Work:

  • If you are slim then heavy work will be best for you, if you are overweight and fatty then light work is suitable for you.
  • A saree with heavy embroidery work can make a gal look fatty and strange.

Designs of the Blouse:

  • A designer blouse can give a woman more beautiful, sexy and gorgeous look.
  • If you want to look gorgeous and beautiful then you should also consider the designs of latest trendy blouses.

Choosing Saree According to Body Type of a Woman


Saree for Tall Women:

  • If you are tall then I am sure you would not like to be looked like a tall pillar. In this case you should buy or choose such saree which outlook you tall height. For example you should choose a saree with bold colors, large prints and broad & heavy borders, as this will not let your excess height being noticed.
  • Saree with large prints also good to make you look shorter than you are.
  • Cotton Saree, Raw Silk Saree and Pure Silk Saree are also ideal.
  • Sheer Sarees with net & lace work and embellished with heavy border gives taller and slim women gorgeous and sexier look.
  • The sarees with heavy borders in contrast are quite trendy these days.
  • Tall and slim women have more option to choose from saris.

Saree for Short Women:

  • While selecting saree for a short woman one thing should be kept in mind, and that is, you should choose a saree which creates an apparition of length.
  • A saree with light colors, short borders and vertical prints will be a perfect choice for you.
  • There are so many sarees in the market with light colors, prints in vertical designs and with short or no borders which will make you look tall.
  • Sarees with large border will make you look short so better to avoid such sarees.
  • Chiffon, Georgette, Shimmer and Silk Sarees are ideal for short women.
  • Saree for Overweight Women:
  • All kind of light weight sarees such as Georgette sarees, Chiffon sarees, Crepe sarees are best suitable for overweight women. Apart from this Heavy Mysore Silk Saree is also a good option for you.
  • Always try to choose dark colors and prints as they will give you slim and beautiful look.
  • Saree should fit closely around your body while draping so that it gives you a slimmer look.
  • Make sure the saree has a border, as saree without border will make you look bulky and fleshy.
  • You can also wear sarees made from cotton mixed with other fabrics e.g. cotton silk sarees, they will also give you slimmer look.

Saree for Slim & Skinny Women:

  • Slim women should choose heavier sarees for themselves; they should try sarees made from heavy fabrics like Heavy Cotton Sarees, Heavy Silk Sarees, Heavy Brocade Sarees, Heavy Designer Saree, etc.
  • Embroidered Sarees with heavy zari and other work also make a woman more beautiful and gorgeous.
  • Printed Sarees with attractive and beautiful designs and large prints gives cool look to slim ladies.
  • Slim ladies can also try Heavily Embellished Lehenga Style Saris, Tissue Sarees, Organza Sarees, Tussar Sarees and Kancheepuram Silk Sarees as these also suits for their slim body type.
  • Avoid Chiffon, Georgette and Crepe Sarees as they will make you look skinnier and slimmer.
  • You can also try light color saree like white, off-white or any other light shades.

Saree for Short and Slim Women:

  • Silk sarees with thin borders that can add height and volume are the best for short and slim women.

Short Height & Dark Color Women:

  • I would advise you to go for dark colors sarees like dark pink, grey, black, maroon, green or completely contrast colors for example white, off white, etc.
  • You can also try saree in plain opaque black or white color.

Saris for Voluptuous Busty Women:

  • Chiffons, Georgettes and Silk Saris are best outfit for voluptuous busty women to show their natural voluptuous and curvaceous body figure sexier and beautiful.
  • These saris will not only accentuate the curves of a woman buy will also give them gorgeous and enticing look.

Fair Complexion and Pale Color Women:

  • Bright colored sarees can make them look more beautiful for example offwhite, light pink, white, yellow, peach, etc.
  • Fair complexion women can experiment with any fabric and color of saree.

  • In fact you can anything because dark color women look beautiful and sexy in any outfit. You can experiment with different colors.
  • And keep one thing in mind “black beauty is the trend of the hour” have confidence in yourself, you will look beautiful and gorgeous in whatever you will wear.
  • Dusky women always look more appealing than fair color women; for example bollywood actress Bipasha Basu, Lara Dutta, Priyanka Chopra, Rani Mukherjee or Deepika Padukone, Kajol, and Sameera Reddy have so much appealing look.
  • Dark tone women should always wear as less jewelry as possible to make sure that their make up is in fine tune with the color of saree and other accessories. Because excess of jewellery makes them look weird and odd.
  • Light color sarees with small floral prints with simple accessories will also do well.
