Ritesh and Genelia Wedding Reception Party


Oprah Winfrey Dressed in a Tarun Tahiliani Saree


We are sure you all must have felt proud when in 2007 Aishwarya Rai Bachchan made Oprah Winfrey drape a saree on her chat show called Oprah Winfrey Show. Even a better moment was when on her recent visit to India TV Moghul Oprah Winfrey gave an appearance in a saree by Tarun Tahilianai.

The nine-yard-long fabric was a burnt orange Kanjivaram Saree with silk brocade paired with a gota and antique zardozi embroidery saree blouse. The saree blouse and the sari were embellished with tiny antique studs. We think that from learning how to drape a saree to wearing one herself this media mogul has really come a long way. She had draped the saree well and carried it off well too.

If you think that Oprah looked great in the saree and you want to try out something different then you have reached the right place. We at Sareez give you the opportunity to have custom made sarees made exclusively for you. Keep watching this space for more amazing collections of sarees , salwar suits and Lehengas.

Bollywood Beauties in Dazzling Ethnic Wear


kangana-ranauat-in-white-transparent-sareeWe always think that sarees are the Indian counterparts of an LBD (Little Black Dress). Suitable for any body type, saree gives a sizzling aura to our personalities. While our bollywood beauties carry the western outfits with great panache yet there is no comparison to their appearances in ethnic wear.


It was a wonderful treat to our eyes to see the Indian beauties don a Desi attire in the Umang police show 2012 and while some looked great and some not-so-great yet they all carried themselves with great confidence and style. Rani Mukherjee and Vidya Balan turned up in a Sabyasachi collection , to no one’s surprise obviously. But it was Kangana Ranaut who was the highlight of the event and dazzled everyone with her Desi mantra. Dressed in a cream and gold saree with pink blouse she was an epitome of grace and elegance. Mandira Bedi adorned a cream saree with golden lotus motifs and a spaghetti strap blouse. From our side , we would give her a thumbs up.

It was also the day for salwar suits where Ragini Khanna looked ethereal in a white anarkali salwar suit. On the contrary, Sonali Bendre in her white churidar kameez looked simple yet trendy.


We at Sareez give you the chance to pamper yourself with the same saree and suits by placing a customized order and get it delivered for free at your doorstep. So what are you waiting for ! Grab your chance to look like your favourite celebrity and be a celebrity among your friends .

Many personalities like Ashley Judd, Patricia Arquette, Angelina Jolie, Victoria Beckham, Jessica Alba, Madonna and Helen Mirren have been seen sporting the Indian look in a saree.

Saree Innovation in South India


Southern India’s Innovation in Sarees

South India is known for its great quality of silk sarees. These fine qualities of sarees are still a favorite among the South Indian brides to get the proper traditional look in their wedding. In spite of being the land of tradition, South India is also the land of innovation. It is South India, where the various patterns of innovative sarees are seen. This article is devoted to the wondrous creations of sarees done in South India. Most of these South Indian Sarees mentioned below are the results of the creative streak of the weavers of Southern India:

The Color-Changing saree

This is an intriguing creation of Sri Kumaran Silks, as this is a silk saree, first ever made in the world, which changes its color, when the wearer goes out of the house.

The Saree-Shirt Combo

This is a two-in-one combo pack, where well-designed saree is accompanied by a similar shirt piece for the woman’s husband. This style is known as ‘Jodi Pattu’. The pallu of the saree has intricate embroidery work, which is somewhat replicated in the shirt as well, and both are made of genuine handloom silk.

The Zip-n-Wear Saree

This is an interesting blend of four pallus in one saree. In this silk saree, four separate yet complimenting pallus are used to design the complete look. Each pallu comes with an attached zip, which the wearer can, according to her wish, detach, rearrange and reattach to get a new look every time.

The Denim Saree

This is a saree, which creates an illusion of wearing denim in form of a saree, where the wearer enjoys the gentle and velvety feel of silk in reality.

The Pocket Saree

Another unique creation is the Pocket Saree where the drape allows for a pocket on the left side near the hip region, to hold cell phones, and other bric-a-brac.

The Reversible Saree

This is a handiwork where the saree has been made in such a fashion that it can be worn in four varying styles. This saree comprises of two different blouses to be worn with two different body colors and four separate pallus.

The Durbar Krishna Saree

Another divine creation is The Durbar Krishna Saree, where an image of Lord Krishna is made to cover the overall pallu. The design is done with Swarowski crystals and it is believed to carry good luck to its wearer.

The 50000 Color Saree

This multi-colored saree is interlaced with 50000 shades of various colors.

The Jugalbandi Saree

Here, two opposite concepts have been merged into one single saree. On pure South Indian silk sarees, North Indian lacework or kundan or beadwork, or embroideries like the Parsis are blended into one complete whole.

The Zodiac Saree

This is actually a part of 12 saree collection named Zodiac Sarees. Each zodiac sign’s symbol has been woven into each of the sarees in this collection.

These innovations are not only something matchless but worth a collector’s item.

A plain border violet saree would look very elegant for a formal setting while a floral printed saree would be just apt for an informal setting. As every apparel merchant will tell you, a violet georgette saree is one of the most sought after items in any saree store.

A viscose lehenga is also a good option if you don’t want to wear a saree.Viscose lehengas actually refer to those lehengas which are made of a fabric that consists of artificial fibres helping the fabric to breathe easily making it quite suitable for Indian conditions. Another important quality of viscose is that it dyes quite easily and is therefore a good bet for making printed lehengas.

I will not elaborate further on these excellent fabrics, it would be much better if you check out an online saree portal that would introduce you to a mind-boggling variety of designs in viscose lehengas that will help you look the best on your D-day.
