To Maral15,

Get the blouse to be stitched long enough to cover the stomach like a shirt because the sari comes in a fixed width and so cannot be made tall enough.

[dbca999]

There are 3 reasons: (1)In Movies they use very rich,elegant & expensive saris, this could be a cheaper/average one. (2)Fitting of her blouse looks very loose because the person is lean probably. Blouse is typically tailor stitched to specific size (3)There are different ways of wearing saris. This is probably not the one that you last saw.

you just need to have a bouse made a ittle more covering and don't make the pleats on the pallu, and wear it in the most common way (not gujarati) also you can wear the petticoat higher on your stomach, this way the belly won't show.

[Maral15]

just take a shirt in the right lenght like a normal woman t-shirt, or pull the petticoat a little higher. thats of course not the original way of wearing a saree but i dont like to show my belly either. im not indian by the way but im wearing sarees as oft i could love them

[Maral15]
