Green is among the most versatile colour options when it comes to ethnic wear. From traditional to contemporary – there is something about the colour green that makes it ideal for all kinds of occasions. Ranging from the softest pastel green to the brightest emerald green, every shade carries its own unique personality. This colour not only bridges the gap between tradition and modernity, but also stands for prosperity, growth and harmony – thus making it a popular choice for auspicious occasions like puja ceremonies, weddings, festivals and more. In addition to this, green is one of the most easy-to-carry colours in day-to-day life as well.
Thus, a green saree holds a special place in every saree lover’s collection. Taneira is proud to present a handpicked collection of green sarees in every shade you can think of – and beyond! Add to this the endless variety of fabrics – from the richness of Silk to the graceful drape of Georgette, from the comfort of Cotton to the ethereal charm of Organza. Pair your saree with the right accessories, style it in creative ways and you have an outfit that can transform from heritage classic to modern statement in an instant.
Let’s explore the irresistible charm of green sarees and know more about some of our favourites that you must add to your ethnic wear wardrobe:
Green Bhagalpur Woven Silk Viscose Saree: Bhagalpuri Silk sarees are known for their vibrant colour palettes that are a result of their unique dyeing style. They are made from Silk produced by Vanya silkworms, who feed on natural forest vegetation and are dyed using natural dyes. This green and yellow saree offers one such earthy yet refreshing colour combination and is a versatile choice for semi-formal gatherings as well as office wear. The thin golden lines running all over the saree body give it a subtle sheen, making it festive without being overwhelming. The yellow pallu adds a pop of colour to your ensemble and gives a dual-toned drape effect.
Ideal For:
Draped in hues of green and sunshine yellow, this Bhagalpuri Silk saree is a smart choice
for work yet graceful enough for celebrations. It is ideal for a Diwali puja at work, an
important dinner outing with your colleagues, a day function or even an intimate puja
ceremony at home.
Styling Tip:
Let the saree’s contrasting pink blouse bring a burst of colour and energy to its earthy
greens and yellows. Choose a boat neck style or a V-neck blouse and pair the saree with
diamond polki jewellery to keep it classic, yet contemporary.
Sea Green Silk Georgette Lehariya Saree: For a green saree look that is playful and traditional at the same time, go for a Leheriya saree. This saree boasts of the traditional Rajasthani tie-and-dye technique, known for its wavy, diagonal lines. The word ‘Leheriya’ comes from the word ‘Leher’ which is also the inspiration behind this pattern. The fabric is rolled and tied at regular intervals before it is dipped into vibrant dyes. When unwrapped, the saree reveals its signature wave-like patterns, lending it a playful, breezy charm. With this sea green saree, the flowing Leheriya patterns truly mirror gentle ocean waves, making it a unique addition to your ethnic wear wardrobe.
Ideal For:
This sea green saree is ideal for various occasions like brunches with friends, a loved
one’s mehendi ceremony or even a date night when accessorized well.
Styling Tip:
For intimate gatherings, style your Leheriya saree with a blouse tailored to perfection with
a large knot at the back. For a date night, accessorize your saree with a sleek leather belt
and wear dressy danglers along with a stack of bangles for a touch of glamour.
Dark Green Pure Silk Kadwa Banarasi Saree: Taneira brings forth a collection of exquisite handwoven Kadwa Banarasi sarees, where each motif on the saree is handwoven separately by skilled artisans – leaving no loose threads at the back. For instance, this green Kadwa Banarasi saree captures the lush beauty of nature in every thread and uses the age-old Kadwa technique. The floral gold zari jaal all over the saree comes alive on the rich green base, and the motifs flaunt a raised, embroidered-like effect. Showcasing exceptional Banarasi craftsmanship, this saree blends charming floral motifs across the body with intricate, seamless geometric patterns adorning the pallu.
Ideal For:
The colour green, symbolising growth and prosperity, pairs beautifully with the timeless
gold weaves, making this green Silk saree a perfect choice for weddings, heirloom
collections and bridal trousseaus.
Styling Tip:
For special occasions, style this traditional green saree with a gold Tissue blouse. Opt for
antique gold jewellery (rani haar and heavy jhumkis) or South Indian temple jewellery for an
opulent bridal look.
Deep Green Viscose Organza Embroidery Saree: There’s something undeniably regal about this dark green Organza saree, complete with gold thread embroidery along its delicate borders. While the shade of green carries an air of quiet luxury, the intricate embroidered patterns all over the saree add a festive touch, making this saree a special choice for special occasions. The feather-light yet sheer fabric drapes gracefully, and ensures you feel comfortable no matter where you are headed to.
Ideal For:
Whether worn for a grand wedding reception, a festive celebration at home or by a bride on
one of her many firsts, this saree is sure to make you feel like a queen. The saree’s
majestic appeal also makes it a great choice for destination weddings.
Styling Tip:
Wear the saree with a woven Brocade blouse in a contrasting shade of green or gold. Complete
the royal look as you flaunt gold and Kundan jewellery, including a multi-layered necklace,
cocktail ring and bangles.
Green Pure Cotton Jamdani Saree: The saree features woven designs on the pallu, crafted using the age-old Jamdani weaving technique, where the motifs appear to be floating on the fabric. What’s more, small butti motifs are delicately woven at a distance from each other across the saree body. These evenly spaced motifs add depth to the drape, without making it look too overwhelming. The fabric, made from the finest Cotton, offers breathability and comfort, making it an ideal choice for all-day wear. Its soft, lightweight texture ensures effortless draping, which is easy to carry all day long. While celebrating the traditional craftsmanship, this saree appeals to not just the traditional wearers, but also to the modern wearers who effortlessly blend heritage with contemporary aesthetics in their outfits.
Ideal For:
The pure Cotton fabric keeps the saree light, breathable and comfortable, making it a
versatile choice that is ideal for office wear, brunch outings, get-togethers with family as
well as cultural events. This saree also makes for a sophisticated gift option for loved
ones.
Styling Tip:
Opt for statement silver jewellery to highlight the saree’s intricate craftsmanship and its
refreshing green hue. A chunky necklace, minimal earrings and stack of rings will do the
magic. However, if you’d like to keep it minimal for a professional setting, stick to pearl
stud earrings and delicate bangles.
