Saree is regarded by many Indians as the best clothing but wearing saree is an art which one learns with experience.

Here are some basic tips on how to wear a saree to look slim:

1. Opt for darker colours: Dark colours naturally make you look slimmer.

2.. Ditch the cottons: We agree that cotton and organza sarees are ideal for summers but they are also very stiff and make you look two sizes larger.

4. Drape correctly: Drape the saree closely to your body and scatter the pleats a little rather then all being bunched in the centre.

5. Prints: Big prints can make you look huge; small prints on the other hand give a delicate and feminine look.
