silk saree
Lustrous traditional garment
A silk saree is a traditional South Asian garment made from silk fabric, worn primarily by women in India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Nepal.
The saree is a single length of cloth, typically five to nine yards, draped around the body in various styles.
Silk sarees are prized for their luster, texture, and elaborate weaving—often featuring gold or silver threads (zari), intricate borders, and regional designs.
Certain varieties carry prestige: Banarasi silk from Varanasi, Kanchipuram from Tamil Nadu, Patola from Gujarat.
