integration of different cultures has given birth to various
traditional sarees and different ways of wearing them.
Among the sarees for different occasions, bridal sarees
are in a class of their own.

Designer
wear sarees are in vogue now although the traditional
Banarasi, Kanjivaram, Brocade, Kashmiri Embroidery,
Parsi embroidery and Zardosi work still reign
supreme.
