Readymade sarees: Redefining convenience in traditional attire
Many young women find it challenging to drape a saree perfectly. The elegant six-yard garment is no easy feat to master. However, thanks to the fashion revolution and the emergence of pre-stitched sarees, the art of draping is no longer a daunting task. The advent of readymade sarees has simplified the process, they come pre-stitched and can be effortlessly worn in a few minutes.
Instant elegance
One-minute sarees are another name for ready-to-wear sarees, which are created to make donning this traditional attire considerably simpler and more accessible. Readymade sarees are pre-stitched and pre-pleated, allowing for easy wearing without the need for intricate draping. It only requires that you adjust the loose end (pallu) on the shoulder while wearing the rest of the garment like a skirt.
Growing in trend
Pre-draped sarees have gained popularity for their convenience and modern look, especially amongst younger generations, working professionals, brides and bridesmaids, said designer Renesa Rastogi from Label RCKC Aurum. Their ready-to-wear nature ensures you're always event-ready, putting in minimal effort. "They are a quick and stylish option for any occasion offering a contemporary twist to traditional attire," says Rastogi.
A look at its beginnings
"Fashion designers in India began experimenting with sarees adding modern touches and unique designs. They started offering a wide range of sarees in various fabrics, colors and styles to cater to a diverse audience," says Rastogi. According to her, the pre-made saree's global appeal, versatility, designer innovation and celebrity influence are a few contributors to its wider and ever-growing acceptance.
Hazzle-free draping
The beauty of sarees has been globally recognized on many occasions. However, the difficulty of draping and altering the long and often unmanageable fabric is a major turnoff. Pre-draped sarees are a stunning blend of modern styles and traditional Indian clothing. Today it is widely useful for foreigners, women who don't know how to drape a saree, NRIs, and working women with busy schedules.
Diverse options
Similar to traditional sarees, ready-made sarees are available in a variety of patterns, materials, and decorations. Every occasion and personal style can be accommodated by a ready-made saree composed of silk, georgette, chiffon, or crepe. For pre-stitched sarees, several boutiques and designers provide customization choices. As a result, you can customize the saree and have it made to meet your unique proportions perfectly.
