Picking the right type of petticoat for your sari is important to give accurate structure and volume to allow the drapes to fall elegantly. It ensures comfort and ease of movement, whereas it enhances the overall appeal of the sari.
One of the most common types of petticoat is the A-line petticoat which has a wider area for the legs and increases the reach to the ankles, allowing you to move freely and comfortably.
A fish-cut or mermaid petticoat is worn with saris that require a tight drape and makes you look more slim because of its tight fitting. However, the lower part remains loose, to allow you to move freely.
If you’re wearing a sheer sari, then silk petticoats are the best option for you. They are soft and accentuate your body curves, giving you a comfortable and luxurious experience.
Crepe petticoats are best suitable under flowy crepe or georgette saris which do not change the structure and shape of your sari fitting and make it look flowy and comfortable.
If you’re wearing a flared sari, then a layered petticoat should be your ultimate call. Having a slim fit till the knees, this petticoat has an extra layer at the bottom to improve the sari’s frill look.
A modern take on petticoats, sari shapers are long body-hugging innerwear that gives you a perfect curvy look, accentuating your side and back curves.
Perfect to give you volume and drama, can-can petticoats usually consist of layers of net fabric or tulle to get a majestic look.
Made from cotton fabric, they are very breathable and are another popular type of petticoat opted for in India. Very light and comfortable, they are available in every size and colour.
