Styles Sarongs Original

Sarongs are worn by both women and men, and can be styled in many different ways. Women tend to wear them as full body wraps or long and short skirts, while men usually tie them around their waists or wear them as shorts. Sarongs can also be used as tablecloths, runners, curtains, scarves and more. They are a fun accessory and make a lovely gift.

Indonesian:

The patterns of Indonesian sarongs are usually the result of a dyeing method called batik. The batik artist places wax paper on the portions of fabric that they do not want to be dyed. Batik is a national art form in Indonesia, most commonly practiced in Java and Bali. Given the hot, tropical climate of Indonesia it is no wonder that both men and women enjoy the light fabric that's used to make sarongs. The patterns of men's sarongs however, are usually a checkerboard design.

Hawaiian:

Hawaiian sarongs are a great way to glam up an otherwise plain swimsuit. They are also a great way to cover up otherwise unwanted cellulite and fat! They are easy to put on and can be worn in so many different ways. The bright colours and flower prints of Hawaiian sarongs specifically, can add an exotic flair to your look.

Wedding:

For beach weddings, a sarong wedding dress is a nice, comfortable option. It flows nicely in the breeze of the ocean and is a light material to keep you cool. Best of all, brides won't mind if it gets a bit sandy or wet at the bottom. Most sarong wedding dresses are made of silk and can double as honeymoon lingerie!

For Men:

Turns out that men love to wear sarongs as well. And while they'll try a wide variety of colours, the darker, masculine ones, are more appealing to them. These include forest green, deep red, and charcoal. Gold accented patterns are also quite popular. They make wonderful gifts and are great to wear by the pool or beach, as a scarf, sarong, or around the shoulders.

Sarongs are extremely easy to wear and very versatile. Different cultures and geographical regions have their own styles and print-making techniques, which makes them a fabulously fashionable item to pick up when on holiday. They make great throws, tablecloths, scarves, bags, and more. A simple accessory that can add a colourful or ethnic touch to your look. The best part is that they never go out of style.
