Halter necks are very much in vogue these days. They give an indo-western appeal to your sari and are a good option for an evening party!!

Another concept that we loved this Bridal Fashion week was gleaming Jewel back necks that just look strikingly hot and sizzling.
18. Crew Neck Blouse
If you have a tender long neck to flaunt and a very beautiful border of your dupatta, this one is one of its kind. We find these better than the collared necks as they give you the space for neckpieces as well.

Outfits to go with: Pleated Dupatta Drapes, Short Patli, Extremely Short Patli
Outfit fabrics: Flowy Fabrics like chinon and chiffon
A Big No for: Flat chested women

Body Types: Very well-toned women
Outfits to go with: Side Drapes, Short Patli, Floating, Nivi Style
Outfit fabrics: Light Fabrics
A Big No for: Those who do not favour exposure
22. T-Back Blouse
These date back to racer back tees and have now modified as well designed blouse options. T-back blouses have ravishing T- shaped back necks that can be embroidered or embellished to be highlighted. It is one beautiful pick if you want the attention on our back rather than the front side of the outfit.
Tip: Go for these if you have an elegant shoulder line and back.
23. Peplum Blouse
Grace and poise guaranteed peplum blouses do a lot to enhance your waistline. With the extra fabric frills, they get all the attention to your tender waist.
Tip: Do not try this out if you are having too many inches over there.
Body Types: Hourglass Shape, Triangle Shaped
Outfits to go with: Side Drapes
Outfit fabrics: Stiff fabrics like Silk, Raw Silk, and Linen
24. Cape Sleeve Blouse
When you have a very heavy lower outfit, it’s better to go with simple innovative blouses. Cape blouses are a perfect fusion of the new and the old.

Body Types: Triangle, Hourglass, Pear Shaped women
Outfits to go with: Very short Patli, Dupatta-less lehengas, Skirts
Outfit fabrics: Stiff fabrics like Silk, Jute Silk
25. Angrakha Style Blouse
Angrakhas close at one side of your chest and provide extreme coverage. The style is now taken in blouses as well with embroidery on the front side. Sonam Kapoor definitely went one step ahead with a long Angrakha blouse over her silk Sari and we just could not miss this for you.
26. Off Shoulder Blouse
If you are not very fond of sleeveless or strapless and love to have sleeves in your outfits, off-shoulder Blouse is a good option. Flaunting your shoulders to the fullest, these give you a very stunning way to show off your collar bones with equally peppy sleeves.
Body Types: Very well-toned women
Outfits to go with: Dupattas draped along the neck or side pleated
A Big No for: Women with heavy arms and shoulder
27. Butterfly Sleeve Blouse
Butterfly sleeves look amazing when you have a sheer blouse or a net Sari to drape it with. Go for some subtle thread work on your flared sleeves to get a designer outfit in a very low budget!!
Tip: Flares add up the volume to your overall look. This might not be a pick for women who wish to look slimmer.
28. Attached Dupatta Blouse
To make life super easy, designers have gotten into blouses with dupattas draped and attached. For Half saris and Skirt styled saris these are the best choice.
Tip: When choosing such blouses, be sure that the drape suits you well.
29. Corset Blouse
They can be strapless or with sleeves. Like a corset, these are tight-fitted blouses and accentuate your whole torso. If you have a superb figure to flaunt, pick one of these this weekend.
Body Types: Very well-toned women
Outfits to go with: Skirt Saris, Retro Drape, Pleated Dupattas
Outfit fabrics: Any Fabric
A Big No for: Apple Shaped, Pear-shaped women

Play the hide and seek with the onlookers by getting into this beautiful concept of high-low blouses. We personally recommend wearing this without a dupatta to keep it graceful on!!
Body Types: As per your comfort level
Outfits to go with: Skirts, Flared Palazzos, Dhoti Saris
Outfit Fabrics: Any Fabric
A Big No for: Plump and under-toned waistlines

Take out your old pieces and just go for funky sleeves with them and Bang! You are back in the fashion world!!
Tip: Go for sleeves that suit you.
32. Lace Blouse
Lace blouses are unique and royal in their own way. They don’t need any extra work if they are well-tailored and designed.
Tip: Lace blouses show some of your skin, so be very careful with your waistline when going for these.
33. Cropped Blouse
Crop blouses or Crop tops have become a popular visual with long skirts and palazzos. They are chic and look great on a casual day out!!

35. Draped Blouse
Easy to carry and eliminates the need for a dupatta, Draped blouses have recently paved their way into the world of couture’s.
36. Bodysuit Blouse
We came across this brilliant idea of using a shimmering bodysuit by Tarun Tahiliani. Your bodysuit will definitely come in handy with a printed sari.
Tip: Bodysuits cling to your body and reveal every curve like a mirror. Be very sure of your body type when experimenting!!
37. Panelled Blouse
Designers have very uniquely started using more than two or three fabric panels on one piece of a blouse rather than going with a single fabric style. Panelled blouses give a stunning look with designer saris and skirts and are one of the great picks this year.
38. Graphic Blouse
When Sonam stepped out in a graphic Sari, the crowd sure had issues accepting that. But designers have gone one step ahead by introducing classy graphic blouses. Digitally printed with vague or funny prints, a Graphic Blouse is a statement piece to go with plain outfits.
Tip: Be very sure of the occasion you wear this too!!!
39. Mandarin Blouse
Blouses with Mandarin necklines or Ban Necks are becoming a chic option. They can be very easily customized and backless or embellished back blouses. A mandarin neck looks ravishing on women with long slim necks.
Tip: You can have a variety of ways of how the blouse closes at the front- hooks, designer zippers, or statement buttons.
Body Types: All body types
Outfits to go with: Side Drapes, Short Patli, Floating, Nivi Style
Outfit fabrics: Georgette, chiffon, chinon, satin
A Big No for: Women with plump necks and short necks
40. Sweetheart Neck Blouse
Flaunting cleavages and your bosom, sweetheart neck styles are one of the most conventional blouse designs that almost every woman owns.
They should be worn when you are very much into deep necks as this neckline dives deep into the cleavage!
Body Types: Hourglass body shapes, Women with fuller chests
Outfits to go with: Palazzos, Flared pants, Northern Styles, Pleated side drapes
Outfit fabrics: Any fabrics
A Big No for: Those who do not favour exposure

It evolved from the concept of sarongs. Shortened and more exposing, criss cross blouses are fabulous for beach parties or destination weddings.
You might even go with some subtle embellishment along with the necklines.
Body Types: Hourglass body types, Pear-shaped women
Outfits to go with: Side drapes
Outfit fabrics: Light Fabrics
A Big No for: Flat Chested women
42. Sweater Blouse
Knitted sweaters are now very much in vogue on the ramps. It’s high time we see them being put to their worth. Hand knitted or woven sweaters look pep and are definitely one out-of-the-box idea.
43. Leather Blouse
Blouses in leather or with leather patchworks have now become steaming attire especially worn with smoked colours like burgundy and beige.
Trendy cutwork pieces in leather blouses have simply flooded the industry and these just look fab when going with plain simple drapes and fabrics.
Tip: They cling to your body, so very plump ones must avoid these.
44. Jewel Neck Blouse
Eliminate the need of wearing any statement jewelry with beautifully embellished jewel neck blouses.
These have heavy embroidery with gems and jewels on the neck area especially and look great if your outfit with the blouse is simple and subtle.
Outfits to go with: Lehengas, Skirts, Flared palazzos
Outfit fabrics: Any fabrics
A Big No for: Heavy busted women as the neckline is heavy
Tip: Do not accessorize too much with these blouses, else you’ll look like a jewelry counter!!!
