50 Latest Saree Blouse Designs – 2019
1. Cape Style Black Tussar Silk Blouse With A High Neck

Taapsee Pannu never ceases to amaze us. With her amazing acting skills, pretty hair, classy dressing sense, and contagious smile, she is the nation’s heartthrob! She carries Indian wear just as beautifully as she does her Western clothes, and here’s proof. This black cape style blouse is a unique creation by Jayanti Reddy. She has blended high neck with cape sleeves, but in a way that makes them look like bat sleeves. If unique is your thing, this is it!
Tip – Keep the saree plain and pleat the pallu so that the blouse can stand out.
2. Red Silk Blouse With Golden Embroidery And Ruffled High Neck

Another one from Jayanti Reddy’s label that has been making the rounds and taking the traditional blouse game top notch. The pure silk blood red blouse with silver zari embroidery and high ruffled neck is surely going to put you on the pedestal.
Tip – Wear it with a red zari, silk or jute sari, and preferably keep it plain. But, if you can carry the look, you can try printed sarees too. Printed pattu with an embroidered blouse is trending anyway.
3. Dull Gold Party Wear Blouse With Bell Sleeves

Payal Singhal is known for infusing eclectic elements to her designs, sometimes evidently and sometimes with subtle detailing. And, as far as this ensemble goes, she strikes a perfect balance of both. The dull gold blouse with metallic motifs and modified bell sleeves, and the frayed saree borders are little details that look amazing.
Tip – Since gold is one of those universal colors, mix and match it with contrast colored sarees. But, make sure your saree is vibrant, or it may fall flat.
4. Black Cape Style Blouse For Party Wear Sarees
Image: Instagram
Wouldn’t it be unfair to make a saree-blouse list and not include our very own Shanti Priya in it? The sassy and classy Deepika Padukone has time and again proved her love for traditional wear. And why shouldn’t she? She looks absolutely gorgeous in this attire! She wore this out-of-the-box blouse for one of her Bajirao Mastani promotions. This blouse piece has two parts – one simple fitted 3-layered corset blouse, and a sheer cape on top with a lacy edge. It looks absolutely unique and sassy.
Tip – This style can work either way – if you have a heavy blouse, then you can opt for a plain chiffon saree, and if your inner blouse is plain, a saree with light work on it would look good. Anyhow, it’s better not to go overboard with this design.
5. Leather And Pearl Embroidery Blouse For Organza Saree
Image: Instagram
By now, we have all seen enough and more of embroidery blouses. If you want to shift gears, here’s an exclusive design from Archana Rao label that is sheer sophistication. The pearl embroidery on the leather blouse is just a perfect condiment to this plush organza saree.
Tip – Keep the saree light and airy, so that the blouse does all the talking. Add a waist belt like this one – and that’s all you will probably need.
6. Gold Colored High Neck Blouse For Wedding Sarees
Image: Instagram
Choosing an outfit for a wedding isn’t an easy task, especially with the market overflowing with done-to-death styles. What can be more embarrassing than falling into a fashion faux-pas, especially when it’s a lady that you know and are not too fond of (Oh Ms. B, our blouse styles look quite similar, don’t you think?)! To avoid all the mess, I suggest you go for this elegant yet unique Tarun Tahiliani design from his ‘The Last Dance of the Courtesan’ Couture Collection. The X-factor here is the absolute no seam jeweled fabric that will most definitely put you in the limelight. Inspiring, isn’t it?
Tip – Wear this lush beige blouse with your heavy work sarees and be ready to get tons of compliments!
7. Broad Boat Neck Blouse In Lace With Uncut Edges
Image: Instagram
Prefer white and lacy? Then this style is made just for you.
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan wore this beautiful full-sleeved lace blouse with a chiffon-silk saree at Women Of Worth Awards 2016, leaving the audience awestruck yet again with her feminine charm and grace. The uncut raw edges make up the boat-shaped neckline, and the sheerness of the material makes a bold statement.
Tip – Other than going the same way as Aishwarya, you can pair up this blouse with a plain chiffon saree in a contrasting color (black, navy or maroon).
8. Black Sequin Sleeveless Blouse With Looped Up Back
Image: Instagram
Doesn’t this style remind you of the bold and sassy chemistry professor Ms. Chandani from the movie Main Hoon Na? Picked out from Satya Paul’s Autumn Winter 2016 collection, this blouse pattern is all about boldness. The front is styled like a low-cut bikini and the back is laced with a set of pretty loops conjoining the fabric strings.
Tip – Plain or printed, any type of chiffon/georgette saree can be paired with this amazing blouse piece.
9. Peach And Gold Brocade Blouse For Pattu Saree
Image: Instagram
Ditch your old school golden colored blouses and give this one a shot. Keep the bodice plain and go all out with the embroidery for the sleeves – it’s equal parts modern and traditional.
Tip – Go with a contrast saree with a thick contrast border, or a transparent net saree, depending on the occasion.
10. Broad Deep V Neck Style Halter Blouse In Lace
Image: Instagram
Those who have a liking for choli-blouses will definitely love this amazing piece. Sonam Kapoor seems to love it too! With a refined V-cut in front and a sagging hem, this lace blouse has a halter neck that will totally complement your pretty back.
Tip – Wear this style with a plain saree and get ready to be complimented over and over again.
11. Blue Floral Printed Blouse For Silk Sarees
Image: Instagram
Unless you have been living under a rock, you’d know that florals have taken over this season. From long gowns to lehengas, and of course, blouses, they are everywhere. If you want to join the bandwagon too, but also be a little different, try this blouse. Wear it with a light pattu saree – even better if you can pull off a printed saree. The loop design pattern at the back is just another exciting addition to this already gorgeous blouse.
Tip – Remember to not go overboard with the colors of the saree or the size of the print, it might be a little over the top and distasteful.
12. Heavy Dull Gold Embroidery Blouse With Off Shoulder Sleeves
Image: Instagram
Picked from The Couture and Bridal 2015-2016 collection, this Tarun Tahiliani design screams royalty at its finest. This blouse has a unique boat neckline that is intricately woven with precious stones. It has jeweled flaps at the arms. The entire blouse is covered in refined layers of elegant embroideries and embellishments on top of a satin base, which further adds to the overall beauty of this blouse piece.
Tip – You can pair this one with both plain and embroidered silk-satin sarees.
13. Raw Silk High Neck Blouse With 3/4th Sleeves For Tussar And Pure Silk Sarees

Another one of the royal specimens, this Sabyasachi couture is made for those who like to keep things subtle and classy. This silk-satin blouse features a simple closed neckline and even simpler sleeves that come up to mid-biceps.
Tip – You can wear this classic piece with a silk saree.
14. Gold Sequin And Sparkle Blouse For Party Wear Net Sarees
Image: Instagram
Honestly, the blouse speaks for itself. This is from Sabyasachi’s latest bridal wear collection that was presented at the Udaipur fashion show this year. The high neck blouse with full sleeves is only going to add more sparkle to the outfit.

Famous designer Tarun Tahiliani is known for his exquisite work, and another fine example of it would be this unique design from his latest Bridal Couture Collection. This designer blouse piece is made from gold-embroidered velvet, and the highlight is its distinct shoulder cap.
