If you ever get a chance to get a
glimpse in the wardrobe of an Indian woman, you will get to see a reasonably
huge collection of sarees of different styles.
Mostly they are originated from
different parts of India and come steeped in the ecstatic hues of regional
essence.
Saree is the oldest and most cherished Indian ethnic wear that has been surviving for years. Since ancient
ages it has been there, absolutely in the prominence and now it has become the global
trend.
But when you are stocking up your
wardrobe with the dainty drapes from different corners of our country do you
know there are some drapes that are epitome of elegant, yet have already
experienced an untimely death?
Probably some of them are now ruling the ramps
and red carpets now.
Take a look of those revived drapes and become amazed.
Ghicha
Ghicha has been originated a long
back, form Madhya Pradesh. Thick, a little rough and generally steeped in
earthy and neutral hues these sarees have been the perfect example of subdued glamour.
But unfortunately it became less popular with the rising popularity of silk.
Until,
quite recently Indian designers and weavers have revived it again to life.
Now
fused with tussar, silk and jute, Ghicha has become one of the forerunners of Indian
fashion scenario.

Chanderi
No one could think of glamour on
a light material until the weavers created these sarees in Madhya Pradesh. But
again it is one of those material and style that died young.
But thankfully,
modern Indian designers are experimenting a lot with it and bringing it to the
spotlight successfully.
Take a look of the ramp and you will know the story of
revival.

The comfortable Khadi was popular
during the freedom struggle. But after that it was nowhere to be seen.
People
in had completely forgotten about the material that is extremely comfortable and
most compatible with the weather of India.
As it is less glamorous that some
other traditional sarees people had shunned their faces on it.
But Indian
designers and weavers tried their hard and brought it back again in the
wardrobe of the fashionistas.
Now khadi saree is ruling the fashion scenario
like a queen.
Surely, you should add these
drapes in your collection and make the peers talk about your unique choice of
elegance.
