Sari Style
At an event celebrating National Handloom Day in Hyderabad, Samantha was seen in a black and white ikat sari by Preetham Jukalker with silver earrings from Sangeeta Boochra.
I love the sari and liked the styling but part of me wishes the sari was worn the traditional Nivi way. But, that’s just my personal taste.
That is not to say she didn’t look good, she did.

Oh noo! Bad!!
I know. I usually like her style. She looks nice in the last pic. But that awkward leg out is just bad.
hate those who mess with the way a sari is worn… wats that awkward leg fishing out of it… soooo funny. the belt is acceptable
You couldn’t have said it better!
Samantha does look good here but I wasn’t happy to see the leg jutting out of the traditional ikat print saree!
I actually had to google “Nivi way” :) And now that I know what it is, I wholeheartedly agree with you.
me too! :D
The exposed leg is such an eyesore….eeks
she forgot her petticoat…i thought i saw no petticoat in some sites and I was waiting for you guys to feature it and confirm that this is indeed crazy :) she usually always gets it right but trying to be different – can sometimes fall flat…as in this case
One cannot wear a petticoat. There are many saree ways that cannot afford a inner skirt to be worn. They make to do with either 3/4th inners or bicycling shorts (in reference to what they do for madisaar).
Tres chic! I always love her unconventional sari appearances. This is just of many that I adore. Those earrings are delish!
This look doesnt have a leg to stand on. Ruined a lovely sari.
While she looks good, I can only wonder how beautiful and gorgeous she would have looked – had they not gone for this pseudo edgy/spunky look. Saree worn the normal way and hair in a side braid with silver jewelry – that would have been so good!!!
oh no:(
Like my maid tucks her saree while doing the pocha..
hahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahaa! it so givs that effect… or she got into fishing indin style =P
But to add… Love the girl….
I actually like this. She was obviously looking to make a statement — and while the conventional way would’ve been fine and would’ve got her plenty of gushing compliments, it wouldn’t have been exceptional. I like the fact that a celeb could look at a saree and see six yards of possibilities, without disrespecting it in any way. I like the fact that she looks sure of herself even more. She’s accessorized well and carries herself confidently. What more could one want.
saree is one piece that need not be draped or styled differently for effect… wearing it as is n accessorizing or styling it additionally is the only exprimenting you can do, if needed that is. this is not making any statement. maybe belting it was enough + the hair style… but pulling it up n popping a leg out? it looks cheap actually
Spoiled it
The saree experiment is fine but the hair is weird.
Samantha is appointed as the ambassador for reviving handlooms in Telangana state by CM KCR. Other states and CMs should learn from this and take initiative for reviving their handlooms in their respective states in India. Good job CM, I appreciate your interest in the conservation of textiles and handicrafts in the state of Telangana. <3
