The
Kerala Cotton Saree
is an adaption of the Mundum
Neriyathum, the traditional
attire of Malayali women since historic
times, and modified suitably to modern tastes.The Kerala Cotton Sari has
evolved from the Mundum
Neriyathum, the traditional attire of women in the South Indian state of Kerala. In fact the Mundum Neriyathum can be said to have
influenced the creation of the modern Saree.Once woven by hand alone, the Kerala Cotton Handloom Sarees
have slowly given way to the manufacture of the Kerala Cotton Saree by power looms. Hand embroidered motifs
have also been replaced by designer
prints of the motif.The Kerala Cotton Saree with
golden, copper-coloured or Zari
borders for a white
or cream fabric,
also known as Kasavu
Saree, is specially
made to be worn during festivals
and auspicious occasions. As with Mundum Neriyathum, the
blouse matches the Kerala
Cotton Saree for festive
occasions with colours based on the age
and marital status of the woman.
A green coloured
blouse would be for young, unmarried girls, while the married and middle aged women wear red blouses.Modern day prints
on the cotton fabric with coloured borders and popular designs of peacock and temple adorning the pallu, have made the Kerala Cotton Handloom Saree
popular as daily wear.
Historically,
the Mundum Neriyathum, or the two piece cotton
fabric worn since
ancient times, is still a traditional
costume. The Neriyathu, draping the
upper torso, from right hip to left shoulder over the blouse, with the portion
beyond the shoulder left hanging, has come from Buddhist and Jain influences of ancient India, with the coloured borders of the garment supposedly being borrowed from Greco-Roman culture.In simple form it is daily wear, in the Kasavu form it is grand and meant for festival wear.Modern day prints on the cotton fabric with coloured
borders and popular designs of peacock and temple adorning the pallu, have also made the
Kerala Cotton Handloom
Saree popular as daily wear.The Kerala Cotton
Saree is woven
from unbleached cotton or Kora cloth. With a golden Jari border and motifs of animals, birds, peacocks, flowers, fruits and leaves,
it is highly popular. Adding style to the handloom saree are motifs of checks and stripe patterns on wooden block prints using vegetable dyes.
A popular variety of the Kerala Cotton Saree has Zari Buttas and a Resham Zari Border, coupled with an
elegant pallu,
preferred as occasion
wear in corporate offices, colleges and schools. It also appeals
as novel wear
during festivals. Equally enticing is the Kerala Cotton Sari with block printed motifs and multi-thread embroidered border in half-half pattern with contrasting colours. It makes it

office wear during summer and traditional functions.Online websites such as Unnati Silks, with a large collection of traditional and trendy Kerala Cotton Handloom Sarees, with
