New Styles Banarsi Saree

 New Styles Banarsi Saree
are considered one of the finest saris in India. These saris are made of finely woven silk and fine tissues (Zari) and are decorated with elaborate engravings. Because of these engravings, these saris are relatively heavy.Benarasi saris are mostly worn by Indian women on important occasions such as when attending a wedding and are expected to be complemented by the woman’s best jewelry preferably golden ones.




In fact wedding /engagement and Benarasi saris go hand in hand.Ranging from two thousand rupees the price of this sari goes up to fifty thousand rupees depending upon the rich Zari work on the sari.Teaming up with modern day’s style artisans put some mirror work, zardosi work along with the silk and Zari which enhances the look of the sari and makes it heavy too.









But Benarasi sari never goes out of fashion. It is usually worn in two or three styles. Some ladies prefer it to wear it in the general Indian style whereas the pleats are tucked in front and the border (pallu) is pinned to the blouse on the left shoulder.
