Saree has always been women’s most favourite outfit. We have always found creative ways to wear a saree, may it be at grand events, festive occasions, casual gatherings, or even club nights. So why should physical changes in your body stop you? Believe it or not, many of us have dreamed of wearing a beautiful saree during one of our life’s biggest moments, the pregnancy phase. But our bodily changes and constant exhaustion limit us from wearing a saree, isn’t it?.
What if we told you that this discomfort can be eased with the right kind of styling tips? Yes, you heard that right! In this blog, we will walk you through a few tips and practical hacks to wear a saree comfortably in pregnancy.
Choose Comfortable Fabrics
Fabric is the foundation of your saree, so make sure you opt for pregnancy-friendly fabrics. In pregnancy, most women have to deal with sensitive skin concerns as well as changes in body temperatures. To combat such discomfort, opt for cotton sarees and linen sarees. They are comfortable, breathable, and feel soft on the body. If you want a more stylish saree during pregnancy, you can adorn silk sarees for ultimate style and comfort.
Experiment with Different Draping Styles
Pregnancy brings about many bodily changes, so why go with the classic nivi style only? This phase gives you a great opportunity to try out different draping styles, so make sure you take it as an advantage. You can try the front pallu gujarati style draping for more coverage of your baby bump, the bengali drape for a structured saree look, or the trending open pallu drape for endless comfort and elegance.
Choose the Right Base for Draping
During pregnancy, ditch the usual drawstring petticoats and opt for petticoats with an elastic waist. You can also choose to wear maternity leggings or satin skirts with elastic waistbands. These options will not only take away your stress of adjusting the string, but also prevent the string from loosening. These will also act like a belly band that will provide support all through the day.
Pick Supportive Blouse Designs
Most of us are hesitant to wear a saree during pregnancy because it does not provide the expected coverage or makes us feel uncomfortable. If you also thought of these two things, we have good news for you! We understand that your upper body is changing too, and that’s why we have brought blouse designs that feel right. Some of these include: a long length blouse, blouses with soft-cups and built in pads, and stretchable fabrics. If you want to add in more style, opt for peplum blouses, wrap blouses, or tie-up blouses for ultimate style and comfort.
Drape It the Right Way
Drape the saree in a way that brings you confidence and comfort. While some women love to show off their baby bumps, others do not wish to. Don’t worry, we have got a hack for every preference. If you want to showcase your baby bump, drape your saree below your waist, and if you want to keep it concealed, drape it in the high waist style. Make sure to fix the pleats properly so there is no discomfort while walking around.
Go for Pre-stitched Sarees
Skip the hassle of actually draping a saree in pregnancy, and opt for our ready-to-wear, pre stitched sarees. These sarees will save your time and effort while still giving you the feel of a saree. All you need to do is wear a skirt, fix the pallu, and you are good to go. So, if you are looking for convenience without having to compromise on the style, then the pre-stitched sarees are your ideal match.
So, does the thought of a saree still scare you in pregnancy? We are sure these simple tips will help you along the way. We understand how special this phase is, and believe every woman deserves to feel confident and comfortable in a saree. So, go ahead and celebrate motherhood in style.
