A saree is a traditional Indian garment worn by women, known for its elegance and cultural significance. It typically consists of a long, unstitched piece of cloth, ranging from 5 to 9 yards in length, draped gracefully around the body in various styles. The most common draping method involves wrapping the saree around the waist, with one end (called the pallu) draped over the shoulder. Sarees are usually paired with a fitted blouse (choli) and a petticoat, offering both comfort and style. They are made from a variety of fabrics like silk, cotton, georgette, and chiffon, each offering a unique texture and appeal.

The beauty of the saree lies in its versatility and regional diversity. Different parts of India have their own distinctive draping styles and weaving techniques, such as the Kanjeevaram from Tamil Nadu, Banarasi from Uttar Pradesh, or the Bandhani from Gujarat and Rajasthan. Sarees often feature intricate embroidery, hand-painted designs, or woven patterns that reflect cultural heritage and craftsmanship.
