8 Latest Saree Trends To Try This Festive Season From Pre-Draped To Dhoti Style

If you struggle to drape sarees and getting ready for events is a struggle for you, pre-draped sarees are the ultimate saviour. Pre-draped or ready-to-wear sarees are super convenient as you can just hop into one without the whole effort of draping it. They also usually come with a stitched blouse which you can just wear as a top.

LBB Pick: We like this beautiful rose-coloured saree from Swtantra. The fabric is soft and shiny and can be worn easily without fuss. You can also adjust the number of pleats and the length of the saree with the string in the front.

Pro-Tip: Check out this list of ready-to-wear saree brands.

A ruffled saree is a personal favourite. It looks simple and elegant, and simply adding a ruffled border really brings a fun twist to the traditional design.

LBB Pick: We are fans of minimal wedding wear and Indya has always nailed that vibe. We love this hot pink ruffled saree from the label which is also pre-draped, blending comfort and style.

Remember when Bebo wore a pretty floral organza saree back in 2019? Well, they are back in style! Organza is a lightweight plain weave fabric that has a sheer appearance, and the sarees usually come in soft pastels and floral embroideries.

LBB Pick: We have always loved Aachho's hand-block prints and it comes as no surprise that they do lovely organza sarees, too. We love this hand-painted saree that comes with gorgeous floral detailing.

Pro-Tip: Here are our top picks of organza sarees for the summer wedding season.

Experimenting with unusual colour combinations, colour blocking is an age-old technique that brings together two or more colours to create a bold, striking effect. We love the idea of playing around with different colours and mixing them together in a beautiful saree.

LBB Pick: We found this colour block saree on Suta, which is known for its bold aesthetics and handlooms. The saree has three lovely colours that perfectly complement each other and comes with fine zari work on the border.

The accordion (also known as pleated) trend is back and was recently seen on Alia Bhatt when she stunned in a pleated fabric saree at the NMACC gala. The pleats on the fabric are formed by doubling the fabric over, leaving a beautiful drape with a subtle shiny front.

LBB Pick: Another one by Indya, this wine-coloured satin saree comes with an embellished belt and blouse. Just pair this with statement jhumkas and you'll be good to go.

Pro-Tip: If you like the trend, here are our top picks of pleated dresses and skirts you can shop online.

Sequin sarees are all the hype right now with celebrities donning one ever so often. Sequin sarees give a shimmery look and are a great option if you wish to go all out on glamour and glitz.

LBB Pick: Go steal all the limelight with this embellished sequin work saree from Kalki Fashion. The saree comes in a beautiful off-white colour with fine threadwork embroidery all over, perfect for you to dazzle in.

Indo-fusion sarees, which seamlessly combine two different aesthetics, have been making big waves in the fashion world. It is simply a twist on the traditional way of draping sarees, which we have grown to love.

LBB Pick: We absolutely love this dhoti saree from Monk & Mei. It comes in a gorgeous ice blue, embroidered with chikankari pallu, and adorned with pearls, giving it a regal touch.

Tissue silk sarees are one of the most delicate saree forms. The tissue silk is woven with incredibly fine silk threads that give a texture and feel of tissue, making the fabric extremely lightweight, breathable, and easy on the skin.

LBB Pick: We found this drape in a soothing pastel pink that screams elegance. Made of tissue material, it has a lustrous sheen and cutwork detailing on its border, which gives it an edgy look.
