A cotton saree, charmingly simple, starched and perfectly in place has such a natural feel. Chiffons and crepes add a glamourous touch. Fragile, utterly soft and delicate, they create an aura of fine elegance. And weddings come alive with the grandeur of silk sarees. Painstakingly handwoven to the last detail, the brocade created to perfection by skilled hands, each silk saree is a work of art.
A saree has such a special place in every girl's life. It all starts with wrapping around your mother's saree, playfully and clumsily tripping on its edges. Then there is the first saree you wear, perhaps to a college function, looking self-concious and achingly innocent. And of course, the precious wedding saree that's fondly preserved and cherished for a lifetime.
In a world of changing fashions the saree has stood the test of time. There is something almost magical about it. For it continues to symbolize the romantic image of the Indian woman- vulnerable, elusive and tantalyzingly beautiful.
