Get Latest Fashion Women’s Drape Online by Ancestry

The dupatta is no doubt a quintessentially Indian drape that is a symbol of modesty and gentle femininity. Over time, it has made a place for itself in fashion books and wardrobes alike due to its versatility. The variety of drapes, fabrics, and styles of dupattas available today only go on to testify of this.

Today, the dupatta is as much a fashion accessory to elevate an outfit as a regular piece of jewellery. The bonus? One can create multiple styles and looks by changing the method of draping or fabric and playing with different prints, colours, and textures. And if you’re looking to buy dupatta drapes that are exquisite and made with care, Ancestry is the single stop for you.

Here are a few classic drapes you will find on our online store.

1. Organza Drapes

If you must buy one trendy dupatta online to add to your wardrobe, it should be an organza drape. These drapes are soft and lightweight, meaning they can lift a flat outfit and add some spunk to it in no time. What’s more, these fabrics also have a delicate sheen to them. Hence, they also add a touch of glam to an otherwise plain outfit.

At Ancestry, organza dupattas and scarves are perhaps among the most featured drapes on our website. And we make it a point to cater to all fashion tastes. So, if you want to keep your drapes subtle, you may like pieces such as our Aqua Drape that comes in a bright blue viscose organza fabric complete with delicate floral embroidery around the edges. Whereas, if you're all about a bit more bling, you might fancy festive drapes like our Innayat drape. This black-coloured piece has earth-toned paisley embroidery round the corners, adding a dash of oomph to your festive evening look.

2. Cotton Drapes

An ethnic wear collection is incomplete without the classic cotton dupatta. And if you don’t own one already, it is high time you buy one! Versatile and colourful, these dupattas for women can give your plain churidar-suits, jeans and kurtas, and even ghagra-cholis a whole new dimension. All you need is the right pair of cotton kurta to complement your outfit and match the occasion.

But that’s not all. Print lovers in the house will appreciate drapes like our Royal Bandhani Dupatta. Adorned overall with traditional Bandhani print, this dupatta doesn’t skimp on style. The scalloped details only elevate the pretty prints up a notch.

3. Silk Drapes

Silk dupattas need no special introduction. If you’re one for premium fabric, you can’t miss our silk dupattas featured on our drape for women collection. Our Neel Strip Dupatta is a sheer, tissue chanderi drape that comes in a deep and rich blue colour, accentuated with golden stripe patterns. Complete with a summer yellow contrast edging, this piece is the perfect pairing to an outfit with yellow details. Not much of a bright colour person? You might appreciate our dusty-rose toned Rosey dupatta. This piece has delicate floral embroidery around the edges, making it a simple but elegant accessory to your outfit.

Draping Your Drapes - Here are some tips for nailing your drapes every single time

Sure, a well-crafted dupatta for women can add a sense of individuality to your outfits. But on its own, it can only do so much. Your dupatta needs to be draped well if you want your outfit (and your unique persona) to shine.

Now how you wear your dupatta depends on two things - the style of your dupatta and the occasion. Not sure where to start?

1. Casual Wear

Pair a printed lightweight cotton dupatta or a viscose one with your short kurtis to nail the casual vibe. Turn your dupatta around your neck once, or wear it in an infinity loop style to add some oomph to your everyday wear. Not sure how to make the infinity loop? Tie the ends of your dupatta and wear it around your neck. Now, loop the remaining fabric around your neck to feel comfortable. And voila! Still, looking for drapes to add to your everyday collection? Find an understated neutral-toned cotton dupatta online like our Self Jacquard Beige Scarf that will complement whichever outfit you wear them with.

2. Office Wear

Office wear drapes ought to be structured yet modest. And the easiest way to achieve this balance is to wear the belted drape. Pair a palazzo with a long, structured kurti first, then wear the dupatta around your neck so that the ends face the front. Now, add a thin belt that is preferably the colour of your palazzos around the waist to complete the look. Remember, this style works well with a poufy dupatta like a tissue chanderi silk one or a cotton voile one. Don't have one in your closet? Shop one from our dupatta for women collection at Ancestry!

3. Special Occasions

For special occasions, you can go all out and wear embroidered and embellished dupattas. So, make sure your drape style flaunts these. Wear a free-falling style drape across your shoulders to highlight all-over embellishments or roll the drape around your arm if your dupatta features embellishments around the corners. It’s that easy!
