The hardest aspect about choosing the right saree is the choice of the right fabric. However, at Agapi Clothing, we have received countless questions asking us which fabric is best suited for an entire day at the festival, and the truth is, it varies based on your occasion. This guide will take you through the range of fabrics that are available, from the luxury of silk to the sheer lightness of sheers, so that you can choose your perfect sarees for Vijayadashami this year.

If you prefer either tradition or a more contemporary touch, this is a guide to selecting your sarees for Vijayadashami based on fabric first.

Why Fabric Matters When Choosing Sarees for Vijayadashami

However, while the emphasis has always been on the colors and the design of the border, it is the quality of the fabric that decides whether the saree feels comfortable to wear. The drape may look fantastic in pictures, yet prove to be extremely uncomfortable to wear after a couple of hours. Then there is the case where the flow of the fabric is perfect; however, it needs to be pinned down well.

Silk: The Traditional Choice for Ritual Moments

Silk saree still stands out as the benchmark in sarees during Vijayadashami and it certainly has its reasons for being so. First off, silk takes pleats really well, has a lustrous quality that no other material possesses and has an air of festivity that befits morning puja and anjali perfectly. However, one cannot ignore the heaviness of the material which becomes apparent after a long day of wearing it. Aurelia Nude Silk Pre-Draped Saree with Golden Zari addresses the problem perfectly. It offers you the best of both worlds – the charm of silk and the ease of wearing without any draping hassle whatsoever.

Georgette: Movement Without Sacrificing Drama

While silk may be a bit too structured to your liking, then georgette fabric becomes the obvious choice. It is light, airy, and colorful at the same time, so it becomes the most beloved choice of women who want to purchase sarees to celebrate Vijayadashami on either day or night occasions. Red Georgette Saree with Zari Embroidery perfectly balances traditional values and practical benefits of georgette fabric. This classic red color is combined with the comfortable georgette so that you could dance through your entire day without any discomfort.

A Quick Fabric Cheat Sheet

In case you are still pondering on choosing sarees for Vijayadashami then here is a basic formula for you to follow. You may choose silk saree in case you need richness and traditional feel along with your morning puja where you do not care much for the warmth of the material. You may opt for georgette saree if you are looking for comfort along with ease of movement on a day when you have a lot of things to do in the ritualistic as well as social sense.

The Rise of Pre-Draped and Pre-Stitched Sarees

One of the most effective changes in festive attire has been the emergence of the pre-draped or the pre-stitched saree. The two styles that are featured here are examples of such sarees, and it’s not hard to understand why these sarees have become so popular among women.

The pre-draped or pre-stitched saree takes away the most difficult part of preparation – draping – while retaining the traditional appearance. For women who love the traditional beauty of sarees and the festival of Vijayadashami but fear the effort of draping the pleats properly, this invention of festive wear is indeed a blessing.

Styling Tips Across Every Fabric

Regardless of which material is preferred, some styling tips remain the same when choosing sarees for Vijayadashami. The level of jewelry should be proportional to the saree being worn – a heavily decorated net saree does not require much jewelry while a simple silk or georgette saree can hold more of it.

When it comes to the choice of shoes, one should pay attention to comfortability, as block heels or flats will be far more suitable in comparison to fragile sandal-style footwear. Also, one must consider the weather – silk is warmer than other materials, so it is better worn in colder weather.

Accessorizing by Fabric Type

The accessories that one can opt for may depend on the kind of fabric selected. Gold ornaments as well as temple-style accessories match perfectly with the silk saree that one is wearing for Vijayadashami, because the richness of the draping matches that of the accessories.

Gold or a combination of gold and studded stones is appropriate with georgette sarees, because the delicate nature of the material leaves much scope for experimenting. Net and sheer sarees used for Vijayadashami usually require less ornate jewelry because of their intrinsic beauty in terms of the sequins and mirror work.

As far as hair and makeup are concerned, a bun goes very well with silk, whereas the waves or the braids would go better with georgette. For a glittering net saree, minimal makeup will allow the dress itself to dominate the overall appearance of the wearer.

Caring for Different Saree Fabrics

The type of fabric used in a saree also determines its ability to last during the hectic festival period. Most of the silk sarees usually require dry cleaning and folding to prevent any creases that may develop in the pleats.

The georgette type of saree is easier to maintain since most times all that it requires is steaming and not ironing. It is advisable that net and sheer sarees, particularly those that have sequin or mirror work, are kept flat or loosely folded.
