Traditional Wear Sarees Online:
India is
well-known for its multi-cultural, multi-lingual and large population with its
love for customs and colours. The traditional Indian saree finds its rightful
place of pride in society, during festivals, traditional functions, religious
rites and exclusive occasions.The Saree
forms an integral part of Indian tradition. India is famous for its traditional
handloom sarees. Natural fibres such as silk, cotton, sico, cotton silk, jute
and art silk such as georgette, chiffon, crepe, rayon, nylon are used to make
the saree. Light, soft, airy and providing all-day comfort, the sari is the
most preferred piece of apparel for most women in India and Indian women
overseas.
There are
very many occasions for the use of traditional wear with finery like weddings,
religious ceremonies, festivals, parties, social functions, traditional rites
and corporate events. Women resplendent in gold and silver thread adorned
fabrics put on their finest in silks richly adorned with a lot of exquisite
embroidery, patch work, and other such enhancers. Festivals, traditional rites
have also a lot of traditional handloom cottons worn for the comfort and
freedom it allows in going through various ceremonies and pujas conducted
during the occasion.Silk Saree is
referred to as ‘Pattu’ in the South and ‘Paat’ in the North. Each saree has
intricate patterns woven in gold and silver threads, with additional finery
through rich zari borders, kundan work, embroidery, patch work and other
adornments, to assume regal grandeur. The painstaking effort, the purity of the
raw material and the additions all add up to make the saree an exclusive
offering. The tradition of wearing silk sarees is widely prevalent.
Pattus, though
still a luxury till date is a must for most households. Worn sparingly, they
are mainly displayed on special occasions like weddings, auspicious rites,
festivals and grand parties. The red (considered to be auspicious) colour and
shades of red like pink and maroon are chosen for the bridal Pattu silk saree.Almost the
entire production of raw silk is from the states of Andhra Pradesh, Jammu
and Kashmir, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and West Bengal. Famous centres in South
India where pure Pattu sarees are made, include Arani, Chettinad, Coimbatore,
Rasipuram, Kanchipuram, Bangalore, Mysore, Gadwal, Narayanpet, Pochampally,
Uppada and Venkatagiri. The Banarasi, Chanderi, Kota, Rajkot, Maheshwari,
Jamdhani, Baluchari, Bomkai, Sambalpuri, Tussar silks are part of the Northern
belt fine silks. Banarasi sarees mainly come in pure silk, organza with zari
and silk, georgette, katan, crepe silk, supernet, patola cotton and
shattir. Kimkhab, potthan, betta and amru are
some thread work adorning styles.
Cotton is a fine
natural fibre whose fabric is soft, light, airy and very comfortable,
especially during the summer season. It is durable, has good affinity to
colours and is skin-friendly. Handloom cottons are woven on hand operated looms
as against mass produced cotton fabrics woven on power looms. Cotton handlooms
offer good canvas for designs, patterns and motifs.With good
blending qualities, cotton handlooms of traditional styles such as Gadwal,
Uppada, Pochampalli, Kanchipuram,
Mangalagiri, Venkatagiri, Narayanpet, Rasipuram, Kerala, Chettinad, Banaras,
Kota, Orissa, Bengal have been used with silk to get blended Sico and Cotton
silk fabrics of very good quality and durablity. Since they offer good canvas
for prints, beautiful designer saree versions are available using traditional
block bagru and dabu prints in a wide range of extremely vibrant and pleasing
colours.
Irrespective
of any kind of demarcation in society, traditional sarees are part of the
numerous occasions that come during the year and women take pride in not only
displaying them but also take precautions and care to see to the long life of
these sarees.As long as Indian traditional customs are
followed, the Indian traditional wear saree shall continue to reign as the ‘pride
of place’ fabric.
