Define Elegance with Various Types of Sarees

India is a country with varied cultures, traditions and climates. The same applies to the clothing worn all over India. In spite of the diverse cultural background, there is always some sort of similar thread connecting them. Take for example the Saree which is common throughout India. However, the way it is worn or draped is varied in different States. To cite an example, there is a difference in the way the tail end of the saree (commonly called as pallu) is worn by women of Gujarat when compared to the other parts of India where in the pallu is left hanging over the left shoulder. Same way in West Bengal the sari is draped differently when compared to the way it is worn by women in the state of Maharashtra. This shows that the saree has wide spread appeal to women all over India and the saree is an essential part of the Indian woman’s wardrobe. In order to make the shopping easier and desicion making simpler, here is a list of different saree typesSteal the show with gorgeous SareesAlphabetically speaking, Benarasi silk sarees tops the list.
