AJIO listing requirements for Saree:

  • Portrait orientation (3:4 ratio) — 1080x1440px is the AJIO standard
  • On-model shots are mandatory for apparel; ghost/flat-lay not accepted as primary image
  • Light grey or clean off-white backgrounds — avoid harsh pure white which looks clinical
  • Model must wear the exact product being listed — no styling substitutions
  • No promotional text, price tags, or brand watermarks on product images

Photography Challenges for Saree

Draping a saree consistently for photography requires an experienced draper — inconsistent drapes look unprofessional

The pallu (decorative end) needs to be displayed prominently but must not hide the blouse or waist detail

Zari and sequin work catches light differently depending on angle — one wrong angle loses the metallic shimmer

Lightweight fabrics (chiffon, georgette) are transparent in strong light — requires careful lighting to show texture without revealing undergarments

Heavy Banarasi or Kanjeevaram sarees have stiff drapes that look different from the lightweight poly-silk alternatives

  • On-model shots are mandatory for apparel; ghost/flat-lay not accepted as primary image
  • Light grey or clean off-white backgrounds — avoid harsh pure white which looks clinical

Tips for Saree Sellers on AJIO

Always include a close-up of the pallu border — it's the key purchase driver for ethnic sarees

A second image showing the blouse detail separately helps buyers visualise the complete outfit

For sheer fabrics, use a complementary coloured slip underneath the saree to prevent transparency in photos

Flat-lay on a clean white surface works well for showing zari or embroidery patterns on heavy sarees

Include the saree length and blouse piece measurements as a graphic image — size queries are the top cause of returns

AJIO platform tips:

AJIO has a curated, editorial aesthetic — images that look fashion-magazine quality perform better

Indian skin tone models are strongly preferred and resonate better with AJIO's customer base

Include at least one detail close-up image to showcase fabric texture and embellishments

AJIO accepts front, back, and side shots — 4 images minimum is recommended for full approval

Frequently Asked Questions

What image dimensions does AJIO require for product listings?

AJIO requires images in 3:4 portrait orientation, with the standard being 1080x1440 pixels. This portrait format is designed for mobile-first browsing where most AJIO shoppers discover fashion products.

Does AJIO accept flat-lay images for apparel?

AJIO requires on-model images as the primary product photo for apparel listings. Flat-lay images may be submitted as secondary images but cannot be the main listing photo. Ghost mannequin images are also accepted as secondary images.

How do I photograph a saree for online selling on Myntra or Flipkart?

A saree product listing needs at least 4 images: (1) full drape on model showing the complete look, (2) close-up of the pallu border design, (3) detail of the blouse fabric or embellishment, and (4) flat-lay showing the full fabric spread. Platforms like Myntra prioritise listings that answer all buyer questions through images.

What is the best background for saree product photography?

White or very light grey backgrounds work best for most sarees as they make colours and embellishments pop. For heavy silk sarees with gold zari work, a pure white (#FFFFFF) background provides maximum contrast. Lifestyle backgrounds work well for lookbook or editorial images but should not be used for primary marketplace listing images.

Can ShotRoom create AJIO-ready Saree photos?

Yes. ShotRoom is specifically designed for Indian fashion sellers and generates Saree product photos that meet AJIO's image requirements automatically — including correct dimensions (1080x1440px (3:4 portrait ratio)), background (Light grey or off-white — AJIO prefers a slightly warmer tone than pure white), and professional quality standards.
