Blue Sarees: Royal Blue, Navy, Sky Blue and Teal

Royal, Navy and Sky Blue Sarees

Blue covers a wider range of shades than most saree colours. Royal blue and navy carry an evening party, cobalt and steel blues look sharp at work, and sky blue, turquoise and teal feel fresh in daylight. Our blue sarees run from ₹1,699 for plain mul cotton to ₹4,499 for handloom linen, with pure chiffon party sarees at ₹3,399 to ₹3,999. Below you will find each shade in stock, which blue suits which occasion, blouse pairings and care.

Royal Blue, Navy and Dark Blue for Parties and Evenings

Azura is a royal blue floral printed pure chiffon at ₹3,999, and the one to start with if you want a royal blue party wear saree. Royal blue is deep enough for evening party wear and light enough in chiffon to wear through a long function. Like all our pure chiffons, it comes with a 1 m crepe blouse piece.

Florina is a navy blue floral pure chiffon at ₹3,999. Navy is darker and closer to black, so it reads more formal; it suits evening receptions and dinners where black feels too severe. Veyona, a blue floral printed pure chiffon at ₹3,999, sits between the two and works for cocktail evenings. See more prints in our floral chiffon sarees.

For a wedding evening, Sapphire is royal blue pure chiffon with hand embroidered gold sequin roses. Curtain Call is blue pure chiffon with mukaish work, a finer, scattered shine for cocktail evenings. Both come with a 1 m crepe blouse piece.

For shimmer on a lighter base, Blue De France is a blue sequin saree on mul cotton at ₹2,099. It catches the light without the weight of a lined party saree; it has no blouse piece and needs dry cleaning. See all our sequin sarees.

Blue Sarees for Office and Every Day

For office wear, handloom mul cotton stays light and breathable through a long day. Cobalt Crumble is a plain blue saree in mul cotton at ₹1,699, the simplest blue we make, and Forest Fantasy is a plain teal blue mul cotton at the same price. Citrus Shift is a turquoise mul cotton with a border at ₹1,999, and Cloudless Sky is a blue gingham check mul cotton at ₹2,199; see our gingham mul cotton sarees and checked sarees for more. All four come without a blouse piece and take a gentle cold hand wash.

For a more structured look, Corner Office is a multicolour checked pure handloom linen in blue and red at ₹4,499, with a 1 m blouse piece. Linen holds a crisp line through meetings, which is why it suits corporate wear. Navy and steel blue usually read as more formal; powder blue gives a softer, lighter look.

Light Blue, Sky Blue, Turquoise and Teal

Slow Sunday is a blue gingham printed pure chiffon at ₹3,999, Selene is a turquoise blue floral printed pure chiffon at ₹3,399, and Sakura is a blue and pink floral printed pure chiffon with a 1 m crepe blouse piece. For a plain light blue in cotton, Powder Blue is a plain mul cotton saree. Both suit daytime functions, brunches and summer weddings. Lighter blues in floral and checked designs read as fresh rather than formal.

For teal, Rosalie is a teal blue floral printed pure chiffon at ₹3,999, and Forest Fantasy, the plain teal blue mul cotton above, pairs well with teal, gold and ivory blouses. Vintage Aqua is an aqua floral printed chiffon with hand embroidery at ₹3,499 and a 1 m crepe blouse piece; see our embroidered chiffon sarees. If you are torn between teal and green, our green sarees page has the greener side of the range.

Some guests now choose sky or powder blue for daytime haldi and mehendi functions instead of yellow. Our haldi saree guide has more ideas.

Blouse and Jewellery for a Blue Saree

Gold and ivory work with any blue. With royal blue, try gold, rani pink, silver or mustard; a red or maroon blouse gives a stronger traditional contrast. Teal looks rich with gold, ivory or a matching teal blouse. Navy and sky blue pairings are in the questions below.

For jewellery, silver and pearls suit light blues and turquoise, gold suits royal blue and teal, and oxidised silver sits well on matte mul cotton. Read which blouse goes with a blue saree for detailed pairings, and saree colours for skin tone if you are choosing between shades.

Royal Blue or Navy? Chiffon or Cotton?

Royal blue vs navy: royal blue is brighter and more saturated, so it suits celebrations and photographs well. Navy is darker and closer to black, which makes it more formal and easier to wear to work. If you want both, pick a navy saree with a royal blue or bright blouse.

Chiffon vs mul cotton: pure chiffon is fluid, packs small and has a soft sheen under evening light, so choose it for parties, receptions and weddings. Mul cotton is matte and breathable, so choose it for office days, daytime functions and hot weather. Our party wear saree styling guide and guide to chiffon sarees go further.
