Does Saree Look Good On Foreigners?

Sonia Gandhi over the years has successfully Indianized her looks. It helped that she was not blonde and blue eyed. And her sarees have always been very tasteful and extremely conservative. In her early pictures in India as a young girlfriend and bride of Rajiv she too looks distinctly Western.
If the women in this article had worn the saree in its conventional form instead of as their individual art projects they would have also looked a lot better.

 

Body language the way they walk etc, because of that it doesn't suit I feel, some are more feminine in body language , for them it suits well I think.

I met a Canadian Professor who inorder to learn one of the Indian languages went and stayed in rural area and not only learnt the language, epics but also learnt to tie kanchipuram saree beautifully with a hair bun and jasmine flowers around along with a big red bindhi too! she did carry it really well.

 

There, there! I see you eye to eye. I did have similar feelings until foray of firangi actresses on Indian turf was a game changer. Are we conditioned to view foreign actresses on Indian soil acting in Indian movies differently.

Amy Jackson looks tender, gorgeous and oolamph (since I already used oomph on Angelina Jolie) in bridal colllection. Our very own Katrina Kaif was oo-laaa-mph in her traditional outfits in Rajneethi.

 

Anyone can look beautiful in a saree when its put together nicely. What adds to the beauty factor is the motive.
Why Sonia Gandhi transitioned to wearing sarees? Politics. Lots of other women politicians pick their sarees based on the state they are in or travelling to.
That time when Elizabeth Hurley went completely topless in a sheer sari - no no.

 

I have tried my colleges sareee for diwali. They admire it and can carry confidently, with out worrying stomach is shown, love handles are shown, yet I also feel, Saree looks better on us than on these girls.

 

I think saree looks good on foreigners if they wear it with decent blouses. I like the way Sonia Gandhi carries herself in sarees.
