Navratri is one of the most vibrant festivals, where tradition, colour, and joy come together in a grand celebration.
Dressing up for the nine days of devotion to Goddess Maa Amba and Maa Durga means looking your best while maintaining cultural and religious significance.
A saree is an ideal choice for Navratri, traditional, elegant, and versatile. But how do you style it to stand out while staying comfortable during the festivities?
Here’s a complete guide on how to style your Navratri saree, featuring the finest collections from Sudathi.
1) Choosing the Right Fabric
When it comes to Navratri, comfort is key. Dancing in the Garba or attending pujas can become challenging if your saree isn’t breathable and easy to manage. Here are some top fabric choices:
-
Cotton Silk: Lightweight, breathable, and luxurious, perfect for those long nights of dancing.
-
Chiffon or Georgette: Flowing and soft fabrics that add grace to your steps.
- Handloom Sarees: If you're looking for something elegant yet traditional, these fabrics offer a majestic appeal.
Sudathi’s collection features a wide range of Navratri-ready sarees in cotton silk, handloom, and soft georgettes to ensure style and comfort.
2) Color Code Your Navratri Saree for Each Day
Navratri is celebrated with a specific colour for each day. Including these colours into your saree styling adds a deeper spiritual connection to your outfit. Here’s a guide:
- Day 1 (Pratipada): White for purity
- Day 2 (Dwitiya): Red for passion and strength
- Day 3 (Tritiya): Royal blue for prosperity
- Day 4 (Chaturthi): Yellow for brightness and cheer
- Day 5 (Panchami): Green for growth and peace
- Day 6 (Shashti): Grey for balance
- Day 7 (Saptami): Orange for energy
- Day 8 (Ashtami): Peacock green for refreshment
- Day 9 (Navami): Pink for love and understanding
At Sudathi, you’ll find a handpicked collection of sarees that match each day’s Navratri colour, helping you celebrate with tradition and style.
3) Play with Draping Styles
The way you drape your saree can make a huge difference. For Navratri, you might want to experiment with some playful and festive draping styles:
- The Gujarati Style: Perfect for Garba nights, this drape highlights the pallu in the front, making it easy to dance while showing off saree designs.
- The Dhoti Style: If you’re looking for something trendy yet practical for dancing, the dhoti saree is a great option that allows easy movement.
- Belted Saree Drape: Adding a belt to your traditional saree drape gives it a stylish, modern look while keeping your saree secure for dancing.
- Dupatta Drape: Layer a contrasting dupatta over your saree for a rich and textured appearance.
4) Accessorise Smartly
Your accessories can take your Navratri saree to the next level:
-
Jewellery: Go for statement pieces like large jhumkas, chandbalis, or temple jewellery to give a traditional yet bold look. Don’t forget a stack of bangles to add that festive flair.
-
Belts (Kamarbandh): Adding a waist belt to your saree gives a modern twist while keeping the pleats intact during dancing.
- Bindis and Maang Tikka: A traditional bindi and an elegant maang tikka increase your festive appearance.
Pro Tip: Sudathi’s sarees pair beautifully with both traditional and modern accessories, allowing you to experiment with your look.
