Does a plain saree without a border look unfinished?
Not on chiffon. A heavy border weighs down a fine weave and interrupts the fall, so plain drapes in chiffon hang straighter and move better. The blouse then becomes the place to add work or contrast, which is how most people balance an unbordered saree.
Which blouse suits a plain red chiffon drape?
You have more freedom than with a bordered saree. A gold-bordered blouse lifts the red for a festival, a plain matching red keeps it understated, and a contrast in cream, black or deep green turns the same drape into something quite different without changing the saree.
How firmly should chiffon pleats be pinned?
Firmly, and at more than one point. Chiffon slips against itself, so a single pin at the waist is rarely enough for a full evening. Most wearers add a pin at the shoulder for the pallu and another partway down it, which stops the drape shifting as you move.
Is red chiffon suitable for Navratri?
It suits the occasion well. Red is a festival colour by tradition, and a light chiffon drape is far more practical than a heavy silk for evenings that involve standing, walking and dancing. Gold bangles and a gold-bordered blouse are the usual finish for that setting.
