there are innumerable types of fabrics, weaving techniques,
methods of dying, printing or embellishing , designing patterns,

dignified, charming and very bit stylish. Over the years, the saree
has evolved into a fashion statement which most fashion designers
glorify the look and feel of this traditional garment.

and two to four feel in breadth, that is typically wrapped around
the waist, with one end draped over the various styles of saree
draping, the most common being the Navi style, which originated
in Andhra Pradesh.

garment commonly called a blouse. The saree is associated with
grace and is widely regarded as a symbol of grace in cultures of the
Indian Subcontinent.
THE TRADITIONAL INDIAN SAREE AN INTRODUCTION

In the history of Indian clothing of the saree is traced back to the Indus
Valley Civilisation, which flourished during 2800-1800 BC around the
north-western part of the Indian subcontinent. Cotton was first cultivated
and woven in Indian subcontinent around 5th millennium BC. Dyes used
during this period are still in use, particularly indigo, lace, red madder
and turmeric. Silk was woven around 2450 BC and 2000 BC. The earliest
known depiction of the saree in the Indian subcontinent is the statue of
an Indus Valley priest wearing a drape.
The saree evolved from a three-piece ensemble comprising the Antariya,
the lower garment, the Uttariya, a well worn over the shoulder or the
head, and the Stanapatta, a chest band. This ensemble is mentioned in
Sanskrit literature and Buddhist Pali literature during the 6th century B.C.
This complete three-piece dress was known as Poshak, genetic term for
costume. Antariya and Uttariya was merged to from a single garment
known as saree mentioned in Pali literature, which served the purpose of
two garments is one-piece.
The modern way of draping saree was invented by Gyanandanandni Devi.
She was the wife of Satyendranath Tagore, first Indian ICS officer and
elder brother of R. N. Tagore, first Asian to win Nobel. After becoming an
IAS officer, Sateyndranath Tagore and his wife needed to socialize house
did not want to adopt Western cloth totally, but then the prevalent way
of wearing one-piece saree was not very civil for that Victorian age. Till
then women used to stay inside their own home, so the one piece saree
was kind of adequate. To suit with the new age, Gyanadanandini Devi
started wearing with blouse, which gradually became the saree we know
today.
HISTORY OF INDIAN SAREE

There are more than 80 recorded ways to wear a saree. The most common style is for the saree to be wrapped around the waist, with
the loose and of the drape to be worn over the shoulder, baring the midriff, the saree can be draped in several different styles, though
