Threadwork on Cotton silk

'Work' sarees have been in fashion for the past few years. In particular, thread-work sarees have been especially trendy lately.

This concept has caught up with cotton silk sarees also: One may buy a relatively plain silk- cotton saree and either do the thread work yourself, if you have the right sewing skills, or give it to a place where they do the work for you. These days, any tailor who makes the blouses has a person appointed just for this.

So if you are a person who does not wear chiffon, georgette , crepe or any of the more transparent material but still want to wear a saree with some 'work', you may very well do so with a silk cotton one. Pick the color combination u like and pick the motifs you want them to be embroidered with, and you will not be disappointed. Afterwards, the saree can be used for evening wear and can pass for a traditional wear also.

P.S. Do not forget to accessorize it with the right 1gram gold jewelry. A simple pair of earrings and a necklace will look good for these sarees, because the focus has to be on the saree and the work.

Evening wear in Cotton silk

The most common look in cotton silk sarees for the past decade has been the more traditional looking sarees, with a solid body and contrast borders on both sides, and gold jari on it.  These could be worn to temples, pujas, engagements ceremonies, 1st birthday pujas, upanayanams and even weddings.  Then slowly- lines,  plaid, and buttas (dots)  came in style.  The silk cotton has truly evolved over the years. These days it comes in designs where the top-half of the saree is of a different color with different designs and the lower half is of a different design and color. 

 Lately, they are making sarees that can be worn for parties and for evening events. The color choices and the designs used on them make them very conducive to evening time and very appropriate for non traditional events.

P S. Accessorize it with matching one gram gold sets with long drops!

The Other Facet of RU Creations

I would like to change gears and talk about the other side of RU Creations....the jewelry!!  

When a lady wears a saree it is beautified with the jewelry she wears.  We live in an era where jewelry is made to look exactly like the pure gold pieces. In addition we get all different color stones to match any and all off-beat color saree

s. 

 One gram gold jewelry has taken over the wardrobe of Indian women these days.  Instead of spending almost 10 times more on a pure gold set , ladies prefer this so they can own more and it does not look anything different.  Win- Win situation!

 The base metal is brass and the craftsmen use their creativity with stones and beads and coat it with a 1gm gold COAT.  They come in various sizes and shapes to cater to every lady's taste. Ifr u are a lady who wears chunky sets, trendy ones, or simpler pendant and earring sets-  all these types are available in 1gm.  

Enjoy and have fun coordinating
