The Marvelous Kasavu Sarees at Mirraw
The Golden Kerala Saree
In India, every state represents its culture through many things. One of the methods is through their garments. The apparel that is unmistakably Indian is a saree. Many Indian sarees have bright bold colors and intricate designs. While all the saris are strikingly beautiful, there is one of the types that is muted but looks extremely regal. We are talking about the Kerala saree or a Kasavu sari. The word ‘Kasavu’ indicates the gold zari used in the borders of the Kerala saree. If you feel like you need a break from the colorful saris yet look splendid, Kerala sarees are for you. Let us try to know various aspects of Kerala sarees so that you can choose the right one.
Designs of gorgeous Kerala sarees
The silk Kerala sarees are worn by women of all ages on special occasions, the most important being Onam. The origin of the kasavu saree or the Kerala saree comes from centuries ago when women used to wear a two-piece of cloth known as 'settu mundu'. Also known as the kasavu saree, the origin of this traditional sari has also been traced to ancient Buddhist literature. Mainly made from pure cotton, Kerala sarees are usually in off-white or cream-color with a golden border. The sari is usually woven from pure gold or copper threads and adds a touch of grace and class. Traditionally there are no motifs on the Kerala saree. The saree is known for being plain with only the golden border as its decoration and fashion statement. Some of the pretty ones available at Mirraw. But nowadays people are finding the Kerala sari a bit too subtle, so there are a lot of motifs woven into the same. The maximalist style is catching up with the people as they want variety in the Kerala saree. Artisans now add designs of leaves, geometric patterns, flowers, golden stripes and other creative ones. After knowing the various options in Kasavu sarees, let's see the add-ons that can be used to style the saree.
Styling a Kerala saree effortlessly
The most noticeable thing about the saree is its simplicity. The white or off-white color combined with the lustrous golden border can surely make you filled with awe. But if you are not a Keralaite but you choose to wear the Kerala saree, you can look a bit too underdressed for the occasion. Fortunately, there are ways to style your look and yet retain the grace. Pairing the right blouse based on your preference is the easiest way to bring some oomph to the appearance. There are a number of hacks to do the same. One of the best ways to infuse some cheer to the look is to choose a colorful blouse. You can wear dark colors such as red, orange, blue or green for a contrasted look. You can also opt for pastel coloured blouses such as blush pink, sky blue or peach to keep up with the elegant minimalism of the look. For a classic monochrome ensemble, pair your Kerala saree with a golden, white or off-white blouse.
The borders of the Kerala sarees are what give them the distinct effect. Hence make sure that you drape your Kerala saree in such a way that the stunning golden border gets the spotlight.
In terms of the accessories, less is seriously more in case of a Kerala saree. If you wish to don something, go for gold or copper accessories. Intricate temple earrings are great to exude charm. If you love adorning your neck, a coin necklace should work. For the ones who want to kick it up a notch, a temple kamarbandh or kamarpatta are ideal. Overall, any gold or copper jewelry can look good. But for an authentic feel, temple jewelry is highly recommended.
The hairstyle you choose will depend on the accessories you choose to wear. In case of statement earrings, choose buns such as chignon, low buns or braided buns. Alternatively, you can also opt for simple braids with gold hair accessories adorning them if you like an over-the top look. If you want to wear a necklace, a half-pony hairstyle will give you a charismatic aura. For Kerala sarees, heavy makeup may not let the beauty of the sari shine. Therefore, go for nude choices or a clean girl aesthetic. Tie the look together with block heels or wedges as a comfortable option in heels. If you want to stay away from heels, golden open-toe sandals are also good.
