How to care for and maintain your Sarees

How to care for and maintain your Sarees
To care for and maintain your sarees, spot treat delicate ones with mild detergent and cold water, avoiding wringing. For less delicate fabrics, hand wash or use a gentle machine wash. Dry in shade to prevent fading and If you choose to use an iron, use it on the lowest setting available. We'd recommend you do a patch test on a small part of the saree first just to see how the fabric reacts, especially for silk. Store sarees in a cool, dry place wrapped in muslin cloth, avoiding plastic covers. Air them regularly and refold every few months to prevent creases and mildew. These practices will keep your sarees vibrant and beautiful for years. Continue reading

Also commonly referred to as the head piece, it serves both aesthetic and functional purposes. Aesthetically, the pallu often features intricate designs, embroidery, or embellishments, highlighting the saree's craftsmanship and adding visual appeal. Functionally, it helps secure the saree, adding balance and keeping the drape in place.

How to store your Sarees

How to store your Sarees
Storing sarees properly ensures they remain in good condition for years. First, always clean your saree before storing it to prevent stains from setting. Fold sarees neatly and store them in a cool, dry place to avoid moisture damage. Use cotton or muslin cloths to wrap each saree, allowing the fabric to breathe while protecting it from dust. For silk sarees, avoid plastic covers as they can trap moisture. Refold sarees every few months to prevent creases from becoming permanent. Additionally, use moth repellents like cedar blocks or lavender sachets to keep insects away. These steps help maintain the saree's fabric, color, and overall quality.

Can a Saree be worn without a Fall?
Yes, a saree can be worn without a fall. While a fall—a strip of fabric sewn along the inner edge—adds weight and structure, it is not strictly necessary. Without a fall, a saree can still drape well, especially if it is made of heavier fabric like silk or cotton. Many lightweight sarees, such as chiffon or georgette, also work fine without a fall. The key is to ensure the saree is draped neatly and securely. Follow Tia Bhuva on Youtube for lots of tutorials on how to get the perfect saree drape without a fall. Ultimately, wearing a saree without a fall is a personal choice and can still look elegant and stylish. Continue reading
