Duryodhan saree stripping and toilet paper design

saree_inspired_toilet_paper

This is too precious not to mention.

This hand-grabbing toilet paper is inspired by the evil king Duryodhana who ordered Cheerharan or stripping of the saree, in a famous Indian epic from the 4th century B.C. That saree never came to an end, this toilet paper unfortunately will”

This is so clever and witty. I love it.

There are plenty of places to advertise, your back shouldn’t be one of them.

Bindi tradition is actually older than that of Saree.

Don’t overdo it, but bindi generally goes well with a good saree.

Hate the saree, love the presentation

Really love the presentation, a woman surrounded by the rangoli. But the dark drab dirty green color with self colored embroidery does nothing to enhance the beauty of the woman wearing it.

Sayali Bhagat on the ramp in a Satya Paul sari

OK, somebody tell me that that is not a Satya Paul Sari! The cartoonish Sari sports a design with little hearts all over, some embedded with sequins. To add to the caricature, the blouse is the garish, and the earrings - we won’t even get into those.

The master who raised the bold motif on a sari to an art form, should stay with the big statements and avoid the commonplace!

Blouse back designs - halter top with a band

An interesting blouse design which leaves the back fully exposed; well, you still have the pallu to cover it, but you have the option of revealing as much as you want.

Most of the times, the sexy part of wearing a saree is not that the body is exposed but that it is thinly veiled!

A regal brocade mughal inspired sari

Regal and resplendent, this elegant purple and gold brocade ensemble is really a lehnga with the heavy dupatta draped so as to resemble a sari. The picture of Mumtaz Mahal, mounted in a heavy gilt, adds just the right touch of grandeur to the proceedings.
