Jeans and Saree- Designer Nida Mahmood
This is a deadly combination introduced by the youngg innovative fashion designer Nida Mahmood- Jeans with saree! Jeans is the most sought after and the popular womens western wear. Saree is the purest of Indian womens wear. So, when east meets west, the result is going to be a big hit indeed. In fact, what Nida displayed in the Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week (WIFW), is the net, georgettes and chiffon sarees draped on jeans in a trendy manner. The saree is draped without its initial round- or the traditional tucking in of saree's one end all around the petticoat. The sari draping starts with making pleats and tucking them in front portion of the jeans and then making a pallu out of the other end of the saree. The saree blouse designs remain the same as worn with traditional Indian sarees. And yes, it's important to carry the outfit with right accessories and look, as told by Nida herself! Youngsters will definitely like to follow this trend for any casual party.
