Net sari is a tricky thing to wear. It can look glamorous, a fashion disaster or frumpy! While donning a net sari keep the following tips in mind:
Quality of net: An inferior quality of net will make you look fat as the synthetic threads do not let the net settle. Buy an expensive net sari because a cheap net sari can catch fire easily and synthetic net saris do not drape well and make you look voluptuous.
Drape: If you have a flat tummy wear the net sari with an open palla. But if you have a little bit of weight on your middle section a pleated pallu will help hide the flab.
Border: A heavy border helps the sari settle easily. Pick one with a wide border of different material like lace, velvet or zari.
Blouse style: Never wear an itsy-bitsy or skin showing blouse as it takes the attention away from the delicate net sari. Also if you have tummy flab, wear a longer blouse. You can also pair a net sari with a corset for a chic look.
Don’ts for wearing a net sari:
1. Avoid light colours. The lighter the colour the more your tummy will be visible.
2. Never overeat, unless you want a hanging belly!
3. It is a good idea to work out your abs muscles a day before.
4. Have warm water as it flushes out toxins and gives your belly a flatter look.
5. Do not tie the petticoat tightly right below your belly as it will make your tummy pop out!
