India is a country of much diversity, myriad traditions, and a wide range of
attires. Even though Hinduism is the largest religion, it accommodates a wide
variety of traditions and is comfortable with that variety. This is very unlike
other countries. Every region of India has different traditional attires that
symbolize their culture, heritage, belief, and divinity. Many times, there are
several regions within one state having a unique pattern of clothing.
Indian attire includes a variety of Kurtis, Lehenga-Choli, Salwar Suits, Sarees,
and many more. Every outfit gives a different look. Which outfit should be
selected to wear in a festival or on some occasion? It is the most difficult
question faced by the ladies. Every woman wants to look graceful, elegant, and
charming in any dress she chooses. The queen of all women’s clothing is
undoubtedly the saree and you can never go wrong by wearing a saree in India.
For many airlines and hotels, even the official uniform is a saree
Evolution of Saree
Saree is the traditional attire that Indian women are wearing from ancient
times. The name ‘SAREE’ has been evolved from the word ‘SATTIKA’ that
means the women attire. It has three parts:
1.The Antriya – The lower garment.
2.The Uttaraiya- The plates worn over the shoulder.
3.The Stanpatta- The chest band.
The SATTIKA was made by weaving cotton, dyed in indigo, red, and turmeric,
which was worn by Indian women. With the development of textile industries
in India, the design of sarees also changed. Figures, flower patterns, pearls, silk
threads are started to be used on the drapes to make it look more attractive.
With the foreign influence, the saree became the first Indian International
garment and a symbol of Indian feminism.
