Dhavani aka Half Saree Designs - Traditional Kerala Style

Dhavani ia back in the limelight and it's either single color in rare shades or multicolor with different bright colors. Brides choose these for their reception or Mehandi look to slay it traditionally. Here are some ideas to mix colors, handwork ideas for dhavani and also design options to help you design your dream outfit.

 The traditional kerala pattern. Being a fashion designer in Kerala, many customers come in with kerala half saree reference pics. It's not just for festivals like onam or vishu or wedding season. The women here look so graceful in the attire that's we love creating this look.
The usual way to stay in the set saree look is by working on a set saree. The normal set saree is made into skirt and dhavani. The blouse alone we take the color according to customer choice.  
Sometimes the cusotmer wants the skirt in good flair, in such cases we take the kerala saree + a set dhavani. This just works perfect as we make either pleated skirt or panel the skirt.


This is a pleated skirt with silver border. The black blouse has been worked with silver floral elements. Techie model Parvathy Somnath is popular to have acted in the Kalyan Silks ad with Prithviraj Sukumaran. This costume was an onam design from us, Crystelle Designer Boutique, Trivandrum. 
We gave the pleated look to bring some yesteryear look in the black and white theme. 

Another one of these in yellow combination is under process and we will be posting it's pics and details soon . Till then, stay tuned.

Steel saree to steal the show

 Neha dhupia was spotted in this steel saree from RimZhimDadu Design studio. The pallu has ben intricately crafted in steel chords. Take at look at Rimzimdadu instagram page to see the wide range of dresses designed in steel chords for both men and women.
Yup, men's jackets are simple out of this world. Why should women always have all the fun of dressing up..
 Shruthi Hassan looked stunning in this metallic blue steel saree. She had draped it around with the elegance. Accordingly yo my view, Shruthi Hassan has carried this statement saree with utmost elegance when compared to Nehaji. Who do you think did justice to this costume?

The drape style looked more like a dress than the floating model either way.

 If you are wondering about the practicality of such a fashion, please take a look at the above picture where bride can be seen flaunting away in the blue steel saree as a lady of steel on the D day. Madyha Leghari  jose to wear it different for her wedding.
