A saree can be the most practical thing you wear to work, if the fabric is right. Pure cotton Kota Doria is light enough to forget by afternoon and structured enough to look put-together at 6pm.
Pick calm colours
Pastels and earthy shades look polished and photograph well on video calls.
Keep the blouse simple
A plain or lightly printed blouse lets the weave do the talking.
Pin for the day
Pleat neatly, pin at the shoulder and at the waist, and you will not think about it again until you are home.
