Features

For the indigenous population, sarong is a full-fledged clothing, the middle between a skirt and a dress. For different peoples, this is only the female or only the male part of the wardrobe, for others it is worn by everyone. Depending on the sustainability of national traditions, the sarong has turned into a festive and religious costume, which is customary to wear for exceptional occasions, or has become a distinctive element of the natives, representing an integral part of everyday clothing.

Indigenous people use scarves from practical natural fabrics of traditional colors, and tourists choose light, obedient and flying sarongs made of cotton, silk, chiffon, satin. Special rings and buckles fix the sarong, which is very comfortable to wear. Thais often fix the canvas on the body, imitating bloomers.

The special grace that clothes give to women, smooth movements and the ability to easily change their shape made the sarong an object of interest for designers.So, the summer wardrobe was replenished with a universal and beautiful detail that gives mystery to the image. Unusual colors, their combinations and fancy patterns were also invented to please the scarf fashion.

Ways to tie a sarong

Caribbean option

Allows you to choose the height of the scarf on the body: on the hips or high under the chest. Turning around a scarf, you need to tie the tails in front into a knot (they can be left both free and hidden). A more elegant method differs in that the knot is shifted: they take one end, and as a second tail for the knot, they simply intercept a piece of fabric on top. The remaining part of the matter is made out as a smell, carefully turning it on the waist inward and masking the knot in this way.

Sarong - Caribbean Tying

Thai version

They arrange the fabric vertically, wrap a short edge around the body and tie it in front. The bottom of the scarf is twisted from one or two sides, the ends are lifted to the waist and this first knot is hidden with this drapery. You can hold the fabric from below between the legs, so the trousers are obtained. This option is reliable and easy to use.

Sarong is a Thai way of tying

In burma

Stitch the sarong along the short edge, leaving through holes. Having put on a “pipe”, the “tails” are intercepted along the upper edge, tying them in front, and folds are turned inward. Ponytails are wrapped inside. This method will help turn the scarf into a skirt or dress.

The simplest options are to fold the fabric along, wrap the fabric around the hips and tie the upper edges. So the miniskirt will be ready. Beautiful asymmetrical skirts will be obtained by adding a square sarong.

Master classes will help to make a dress in seconds:

  • Skipping the fabric behind the back, cross the upper ends on the chest, roll them into bundles and tie them around the back of the neck.
  • Leave one edge on the side, lifting the sarong above the chest, hold the scarf behind your back and wrap it around the body, and an overlap of fabric will form on the back. Try to leave the lower corner of the scarf above the fabric free. The second upper corner may also be on the side. These ends will serve as shoulder straps: we lift them forward upward from under the armpits, tie them on the back of the neck.
  • Similarly, a shorter shawl can be tied on one shoulder: the middle of the sarong is oriented on one side, on the other hand they overlap the tissues with the armpits, the corners of the scarf after this intersection are folded into bundles, lifted onto the shoulder and tied from above. It turns out an asymmetric dress in antique style.

These are the most popular ways. It is worth experimenting to find your option, because a well-chosen pattern and correctly tied sarong will add elegance to the figure.

For example, it is better for ladies with a lush bust to tie a sarong like a skirt, and with a miniature one, make knots on the chest. Correct completeness will help the correct vertical or diagonal pattern. Add a growth scarf tied above the waist. The narrower the shoulders, the higher the sarong should be.
