Saris are revered, celebrated and treasured in Bengal like in other parts. Most festive occasions turn every woman into a traditional lover as they seek out their nine yards and make themselves resplendent. Cotton saris are not only versatile but also preferred in special occasions and festivities over the more luxurious silk for their easy carriage and breathable quality. This saree is a case in point. A typical sari a woman would choose for a morning social function or festivity to look rich yet light and not overwhelming. The soft pinkish body and border with vibrant louder colors make this sari distinct and a winner.

Dhaniakhali sarees are beautiful, soft and so suitable for everyday wear. This saree in mercerized cotton is simple with a minimalistic feel. The body is largely plain with tiny peacock or mayur motifs in a geometric shape and has a smart thin border that makes the look sublime. It is perfect for a corporate meeting or a lunch or dinner appointment. While the designs can be richer filling the body, some sarees look smarter and fetching because of their simpler patterns that are easy on the eye.
