I am also thinking, those who are bare-breasted while wearing saris are wearing them wrong. Yes? Because there's that whole top part that, you know, covers the breasts. Anyway, all the saris I've seen worn.
Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

Oh, I'd forgotten that. There's a little t-shirty thing they wear under them. I borrowed one once (a sari, with t-shirty thing). Maybe they didn't used to do that? She could be right about something, I suppose.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Depends on the sari. There are some that are dependent on a blouse to cover the boobies -- they're a skirt with a bit that goes loosely over the shoulder.

If I only had a brain...
Yes, but you wear a choli (Deena's little t-shirty thing) underneath.

I think she means "sarong", yeah? If I were to keep a list of that kind of error, I'd be here till Friday.

I believe there are ten thousand (okay, "many") different ways to wrap a sari, and some of them are... actually, I'm not sure about skirt-style, though it seems likely. But definitely there are wraps which make them pant-like (which is weird but cool, since it's one large piece of cloth which manages to turn into two-legged but fully covering pants).
ETA: This just means that it's possible; my guess would be that that's just a coincidence, and she actually meant something sarong-like.

Sarongs can also, though, be worn covering the breasts. Or not.

I did not know that. Huh. I guess I don't write Gauguin-ish bad fic. I write badfic like those drawings of Marilyn and James Dean sitting in a diner together.

That would be bad!art, erika. :-)
One sect of Aztec priests actually did wear tanned human skins, including flayed faces pulled over their own. However, they had neither saris nor sarongs.
