For Married Women ONLY

Submitted by Dolores Forsythe on Fri, Nov 18, 2011

Yes, it's true only married women are required to wear sarees. I was overwhelmed by the colors and the sparkle of these beautiful yards and yards of silk, sequins and rhinestones! I even bought one, which is impossible to figure out on your own, but I love it! - Hint: click on an image below to see an enlargement

Stacks of sarees.
This is what the sarees look like before being shown – stacks and stacks of brilliant colors.

 

Choosing the right saree.
The entire family participates in choosing the right saree from hundreds of choices.

Saree selection process.
Of course I had to buy one – this elegant saree, including under blouse & skirt to match made especially for me cost around $100! What a bargain, of course I could never put it on by myself! Where oh where will I ever wear it?
