If you thought kanjeevarams are for old aunties and your mom's South Indian friend, you are so so mistaken. Come 2016, kanjeevarams have taken on a new shape, a new idea. They are coming out with newer blouses, sweeter borders and a whole new silhouette altogether. So here are a few new ways you can sport it for weddings this year!

Wear it with a sheer dupatta

Add a sheer dupatta contrasting with the kanjeevaram to add a bit of style to your kanjeevaram. Andhra brides do carry this tradition effortlessly. A sheer dupatta just makes the outfit pop and makes it look oh-so-modern.

Use a modern drape

Create a new drape (or revise an old one) to perfection. This old-school way to tying a kanjeevaram is just making us smile. The pallu comes to the front and the look creates the illusion of a flowy dress!

Wear it as a Dupatta

We love how Sonam Kapoor styled her red silk anarkali with a royal blue silk dupatta. Its traditional but with a modern twist

Wear a Kanjivaram Blouse with a Georgette Saree

Pick a blouse with the same weave and wear it like a crop top to enhance your style - and if a Kanjeevaram can be made into a lehenga, all the better! You can pair it with a sheer dupatta and wear it in all it's glory!

Wear super sheer blouses and cut-work sleeves  

Let blouses go from sheer to cut-out to monotone - whatever it is, make it look as subtle as possible. Sheer sleeves are a huge trend guys!

Two Palla saris

Nowdays saris are coming up with newer ways to impress us. The two palla sari is a delight because you have another contrast dupatta that gives the sari a new dimension. Just wrap it on the other side!

Go Bright

Get a blouse that's completely contrasting to the sari - preferably a bright shade that is completely contrasting. Love!

Kurta kanjeevaram

A simple delicate kurta that adorns a sari held together by a belt - that's the best way to style this experimental kanjeevaram silhouette!

Long-sleeve blouse love

Half-sleeves have gotten longer and they look awesome - from big borders to interesting weaves like the Taj weave . This one is getting hotter by the day.
