Here’s Why You Need a Handloom Sari

1. Comfort is King

Handloom saris are lightweight and cooling. They come without the burden of draping heavy saris that weigh down your shoulders, and are especially convenient for the summer. Earthy tones, soft prints and subtle embroidery make for an overall graceful look. One can choose from a range of exquisite cottons, silks, chanderi and linens, hand crafted with respect to the environment.

2. The Versatility Factor

4. Support your Indian heritage

With historic roots in India, the handloom industry is recognized as an essential part of Indian culture and has become a symbol of the swadeshi movement. Investing in handlooms means endorsing rural employment, boosting the economy, and supporting Indian art.

5. The Star Appeal

If the first four reasons weren’t enough for you, here’s another: celebrities love this trend, and let’s face it – who doesn’t want to dress like a celebrity! Designers such as Anavila have become a favorite amongst the likes of Diya Mirza, Vidya Balan, Konkana Sen Sharma, Sonali Bendre, Kajol, and Kiran Rao.

Once you have picked out the perfect handwoven sari, raise the bar with statement accessories that complete the look. You can dress up the sari with an embellished blouse of your own or go soft and simple with the matching blouse.
