occasion. Another name of this saree is Temple saree. Originally these
sarees were woven for temple deities and hence the name Temple Saree.
Design and Colour
- One of the distinguishing look of this saree is that it always
has wide border.
- Wedding related motifs such as elephants and peacocks,
symbolising water, fertility and fecundity are very popular.
- These sarees have generally very light coloured earth shades of
browns, greys and off-whites. However, nowadays brighter shades have
been introduced for the North Indian buyers.
- These sarees nowadays also have exotic motifs done in zari and
pleasant colors, both inspired by nature.
Worn by both young and old, this is one of the most favoured saree to
be worn by South Indian ladies in any semi-formal, formal or regular
occasion.
