FAQs
What is Onam Saree?
Onam Saree, also known as the Kerala saree or Kasavu saree, is a traditional 6-yard saree in off-white or cream tones with a golden border. These cotton sarees are worn on the occasion of the Onam festival by the ladies of the house, along with temple jewellery, floral decorated hairstyles and simple blouse designs. Over decades of fashion influence, a traditional Kasavu saree has also seen significant alterations, with women opting for silk fabric and embellishments like zari or sequin work, to make their Onam saree more trendy!
How to Wear Onam Saree?
Gathering Elements in Place: Make sure that your saree has its petticoat, blouse, jewellery, footwear and tools like safety pins in place before you get started with getting ready.
- Drape: You can keep it traditional and drape the saree with front pleats tucked near the centre of your tummy, or you can opt for pre-draped or stylish drape styles to suit your preference.
- The Blouse: Either opt for a blouse in the same fabric, or you can contrast the versatile cream saree with a vibrant-toned blouse of your choice as well. In terms of embellishments, opt for gold thread work or zari embroidery.
- Accessorising: Temple jewellery is the most sought-after style of accessorising that women love adorning with their Kasavu saree, but you can also opt for simple diamond jewellery if you wish to keep accessorisation minimal. Don’t forget adding gold anklets to the list!
- Hairstyle: Whether you prefer to braid your hair or leave it open, a garland of jasmine flowers is a must to complete your hairstyle with.
- Footwear: Kolhapuris go best with Onam saree styles.
