the #sarisforallsizes trend was an attempt to normalise saris for all body types
Saris are providing women — and let’s not forget that so far these are upper or upper-middle class women — a means to explore their relationship with their bodies, as well as enabling them to break away from a patriarchal regulation of their appearances. The rhetoric around bodily autonomy, and a celebration of a woman’s body by her on her own terms has perhaps helped increase the trend through both a demand and visibility of saris, and through a greater supply of more casual and affordable saris.
