Discount Sarees: Something Old, Something New, Something Lovely

Few traditional garments stand the test of time. The saree is one of them. Worn since ancient times, this strip of unstitched clothing continues to make the rounds about town. Whether worn as the kaccha nivi in Tamil Nadu, draped Bengali style, or donned as a two-piece in Kerala, the saree remains a popular dress for formal and special occasions.

In the old days, sarees were woven from silk or cotton. The poor wore coarse cotton sarees while the rich draped themselves with finely-crafted, diaphanous silk saris that were so fine legend has it they could pass through a finger ring.

Today, anyone can wear a fine saree. Forget rough and poorly made. The discount sarees in the market today are good-quality ones even the rich of yore would not hesitate to wear.

Discount sarees come in all shapes, cuts, and colors. Some come in ikat patterns. Others have floral ornaments created on a loom. There are also discount sarees with different threads woven into their base fabric. Occasionally, a discount saree may also sport an elaborate pallu or an elaborate pattern that is woven using silver or gold thread.

Some manufacturers continue to make sarees using traditional means. They are slowly giving way to a new breed of manufacturers, however - the ones who use mechanical looms and artificial fibers. The upside to modern saree production is that it’s cheaper and quicker. The downside is that the output, though no longer requiring ironing or starching, is not as beautiful as the sarees of the past. Patterns are printed by machine and are elaborate in front while ugly at the back

The next time you go looking for discount sarees, pick the ones that are handwoven and hand-decorated. While pricier than the machine-produced ones, these sarees are the ones that can truly stand the test of time.
