I want to see those tummy control panties on a plump woman. I mean, I can see that they work on a skinny model, but if a bigger woman wears them, will there be no 'muffin top'? Will they not roll down? That's what i wanna know.

Oy!!!

Perhaps there would also be a long line bra?

And the muffin top would end up in one's bust?

Wow, those are gorgeous. Thing is, I'm a greying blonde, pale white woman with glasses. Something tells me I'd just look odd. But I love saris, always take a second look at a woman wearing them. I think they're beautiful pretty much all the time. Smile

Hmm, dag, if you wear a long line bra and control top panties, where does the muffin top stuff go? Your ankles? Do you get taller? Hmmm.

LordE, here's some nice Earl Grey, luv.

dlowan-Thanks.

I'm didnt have time to peruse like I wanted, but I noticed they have my size in a semi-strapless. I was starting to give up. For a Christmas party, I tried to tuck the straps in on a regular bra for a strapless look, by the end of the night I looked like the lopsided-dimple-boob woman.
Very bad idea.

Thanks again for the find.

One of the first things people ask is "Why?". And there is no why, i just like the clothing. Thus it has to be a special occassion or I have to be in a mood... but I have yet to wear sari out in public. Love them though.

Why? because they're very comfortable. I'm not good at getting myself into my saris myself. I always end up with left over fabric. But when my friend's mom helps me, I'm in heaven. Sooooooo comfy on a hot day.

chin, I do have a silk sari, but alas, I've no clue how to wrap it around self. Plus I always disliked silly Westerners draped in ethnic gear, since usually that is meant to be some sort of a pose or a statement.

yeah, you are right..the sari has now become "ethnic wear" even in India among us, the younger lot. As for looking comfortable in a sari, the trick is - take smaller steps and do not let the pallu (the part of the sari that goes across the bust) slip off. Pin it up with a safety pin - fasten it to the blouse.

Now coming to my fashion-woes...i dont have too much of a problem with jeans or trousers or shirts..but shoes ah, i wear size 4... i have a tough time buying formal shoes for myself...

I have a feeling that saris need shoulders.

The First Mr. Noddy was badly flawed, but he did restore shoulders to the genetic line.

When uncontaminated, we are Pyramid People.

sahki, I loved the sky blue sari. Smile

Small feet, hmm, I never had to deal with that (had size 10 by the time I was, eep, in 5th grade).

Yeah, I think shoulders are good for a sari. You seem to kind of need a way to fling the upper end back over your shoulder, although I suppose creative safety-pinning would work.
