Know your body shape and choose according to that.
1. Pear-Shaped Body: Women with pear-shaped body have a heavier bottom compared to their upper body. So, they should go for fabrics like chiffon and georgette, as these would balance out their upper and lower part. Always stay away from mermaid cuts that would add unnecessary attention to your lower part. Go for seedha pallu style in draping, as that will make your body look proportionate. Bold and bright colours will suit you the best. You can opt for beautiful borders, small prints and embroidery work.




2. Apple-Shaped Body: If you are heavy around your bust and stomach, then you have an apple-shaped body (just like Kirron Kher). That is why you should opt for sarees with beautiful embroidery work, which will complement your body type. To cover your waist, you must go for a longer blouse that will cover your problem areas. Alternatively, you can also wrap your saree a little higher. Silk is a fabric you should pick out for yourself. But, avoid sarees in net that expose your stomach area. You should drape your sarees in a very simple way, or preferably opt for ulta-pallu. You can also opt for blouses whose colours contrast with your saree to create a dramatic effect.

         


3. Over-Weight Women: Cotton and other stiff fabrics are your biggest enemies if you are overweight. They tend to make you look broader and bigger. Opt for chiffon and silk sarees as they will give your body a balanced shape, and will draw attention away from your problem areas. Dark colours look best on you. Handloom sarees will look good on you, too. You need to concentrate on the way you drape your sarees, as that would make a lot of difference to your look. You can go for full sleeves and long blouses, as they would help to hide your flab. Take inspiration from actress, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan who wore a full sleeve and full-length blouse, at the Cannes Film Festival, 2012.
 


4. Voluptuous Figure: Georgette, chiffon and net fabrics will suit you best. They will snugly wrap around your body, highlighting your curves. You should opt for dark colors while buying a saree. Your saree should never be very heavy. It can have delicate embroidery and beadwork, but it should never be too stiff. It should have a good fall, which will make you look slimmer. You can also wear a blouse with criss-cross strings holding it together. It will definitely increase your oomph factor.

 


5. Slim-Figure: If you are slim, then you should pick up cotton, silk and organza sarees. They will give you a fuller figure. You can opt for sarees in lighter colors and heavy embroidery. Go for brocade or beadwork. Since you are slim, you can opt for big and bold prints in a variety of colors. Slim women can carry off backless, sleeveless, halter neck and tube blouses really well.


 


6. Tall N Slim Women: Taller women (like Deepika and Sonam) can carry off heavy borders really well. You can also opt for big bold prints in a variety of colors, as it tends to divert the attention from your height.



7. Short N Slim Women: If you are short (like actress Divya Dutt), you should avoid big prints and heavy borders. Short and slim women should opt for sarees with a thin border, as it will make you look tall. Small to medium-sized prints will look great on you as well.
