CHOOSING THE RIGHT BANARASI SAREE

With so many options available, obviously, we go all cookoo! Well, before you decide what to wear, ask yourself a few questions like, how active you need be, and what suits your style? For those who are going to be quite active and keep moving around, a lightweight Banarasi saree will be best. If you are going for a pooja where you need to be seated most of the time then opt for a more heavy work saree. Plus remember you will be the one carrying it, so if you think you can rock a pooja with a lightweight saree and it suits your style, go for it. And even if you can carry a heavy saree with poise and elegance, you go, girl!

SELECTING A BANARASI SAREE:

• To identify a real Banarasi, it is also essential to look for a saree in which some of the areas in the zari are darker than the shade of the entire work. This happens due to real silver’s reaction to air.
• Burn it up! Yes, one of the best ways to authenticate is to burn a small piece of the fabric, and if smells like plastic than sorry, but it’s not a real Banarasi. A real Banarasi smells like human hair burning.
• Once you are done with the authentication of the fabric, choose the color that suits best your skin town.
• Softer the zari in the Banarasi Saree, the purer it is!
• For those with wheatish skin tone, red, purple and dark green are the best fit
• For those with bright skin tone, deep purples, hues of orange and coral looks perfect.
