Pattu Saree Blouse Designs

Let’s admit that a good blouse can make or break a saree’s look. So, while you pick the perfect Kanjivaram for your big day, it is also important to stitch a blouse that complements your saree well.

Here a tip: If you are going to wear a simple saree with little or no motifs, then go all out on the blouse design. However, if your saree is full of design and motifs, then it is best to stick to a simple blouse to avoid overdoing your South Indian bridal look.

Here’s a tip: Always keep your personal style in mind while buying your South Indian wedding jewellery. Think whether you gravitate more towards the classic style, or are you someone with a hatke style? Or perhaps a mix of the two? Whatever it may be, just remember to buy jewellery that you will wear for the rest of your life and not just on your wedding day!

Depending on what kind of South Indian bridal look you wish to achieve, you have to finalise on your bridal makeup too. It is always best to show your makeup artist your wedding saree, so that they can decide what kind of makeup will complement your outfit.
