Vasundhra Pattu



Woven with pure silk zari and half fine zari, Vasundhra pattu is perfect for any occasion. This alluring collection comprises of a wide range of colours and embellishments that vary from saree to saree. 

Vasundhra Pattu sarees have two beautiful sub-collections: Vasundhra Lite and Vasundhra Satin with a range so wide that you will definitely find a saree to suit every budget. A gorgeous range of light weight silk sarees with different motifs and colours to choose from, this collection is one of our favorites for this season!

Given a wide range to choose from, it is important to know what will look best on you!
First it is important to understand your body type. The body types we’re going to look at are: hourglass, apple, and pear, voluptuous and slim figures.

Hourglass: You have a lot of options to choose from if your body shape falls under this category. Netted sarees, Tissue sarees and Lehenga sarees are the saree types that are most preferable. When you go for silk sarees it is very important to make sure you choose small motifs and drape it the right way.
Voluptuous Figure: Chiffon, net fabrics, soft silk and georgette materials suit you the best. Opt for dark colours and delicate embroidery/ bead work. A good pallu is very important because it suits best when you don’t take pleats and let it fall.
Slim Figure: If you are slim, never go for thin materials such as chiffon. Always choose heavy silk sarees that will give more volume to your body. It is also important for you to make sure that you go for lighter shades and heavy embroidery or bead work.
Apple shaped figure: Heavy sarees are the perfect for your body type. Such as silk, crepe or any saree with a lot of work. Avoid netted sarees and other thin materials that will stick to your body. You can opt for silk sarees that have embellishments/ embroidery. Go for longer sleeved blouses and make sure the blouse colour is contrast to your saree. Make sure you drape your silk saree in a very simple way and let the pallu do the talking!
Pear Shaped: Make sure you go for simple silk sarees. Half and half sarees, chiffon, georgette and light weight silk works best for you. Bold and bright coloured sarees with beautiful thin borders and small prints work best for you! 

Hope these tips help you find the perfect saree for your body type. To find the perfect saree from our vasundhra collections & our other wide range of sarees you can visit our store or log in to www.pothys.com

Indian Ethnic Wear

Salwar & Kurta sets are the most practical and sensible clothes for this summer. Be it a function or daily wear, kurtas would be the perfect way to go about it. Light weight fabrics would make a comfortable work wear whereas heavy fabrics would be perfect for an occasion.

Here are a few tips on choosing the right type:

• If you are Apple Shaped meaning plump on your sides especially above your waist then go for A-line Kurtas with thin borders. Stay away from stiff fabrics like heavy silk, tissue and brocade as it will make you look bigger. Always go for fabrics like soft silk, crepe, soft cotton, linen and georgette.

• It is also best to avoid frills, layers, and glitter work around the part of your body which you do not want to emphasis.

• If you are too thin and would want to add some volume to your figure, go for heavy silks, jute, thick cotton and make sure you avoid fabrics that are body hugging.

• To look taller go for long kurtas. Long, flared Anarkalis suit smaller body frames well. But since Anarkalis are not always comfortable as casual wear, an A-line cut salwar with a little flare will be more suitable as a daily wear.

• If you are on the shorter side, then avoid heavy prints. For short body types, long straight-fit tops ending 2 to 3 inches below knees will help elongate the body. Short tops and very long tops will not suit this body types.

• Bright, bold, shiny colors are suitable for thin body frames and subtle, earthy, rustic, dark colors are for broad body frames.

At Pothys we have colours, cuts and designs to suit every body type. Visit our store or check out our collection on www.pothys.com

Budget Shopping

As much as we love looking at and wanting what celebrities wear, our budget always plays a big role in what we finally buy. At Pothys we constantly keep adding to our collection, designs that will make you look amazing yet are affordable.

Summer is a season when a lot of us prefer dressing light. Staying cool — literally speaking — is at the top of our list when it comes to qualifying clothing. That’s why it is important to get practical when it comes to the budget and the fabric.

Reasons why you should wear cotton in summer

• Cotton allows for better air circulation, and helps in absorbing and removing body moisture caused by sweat. It therefore minimizes fungal breeding by keeping your body dry and cool.

• Lightweight and light-coloured cottons will help the light to pass through instead of being absorbed and hence you will not feel the heat as much. If you wear loose clothes instead of tight fitting clothes, there will be ample space for the air to pass through.

• Cotton helps in bringing down the severity of any allergic reaction and is perfect for those who have sensitive skin. Heavy fabrics on the other hand cause rashes, skin allergies and body odour as they tend to trap moisture.

• So this summer, make sure you bring out all your cotton clothes, preferably light coloured ones, your sunglasses, hat or a scarf and get ready to embrace the heat!
