Benares Beauty

Benares, lately called Varanasi is a holy city on the banks of the river Ganges. Featured here is a soft fine
Benaresi Kora sari. The fabric is slippery and the Pallu is clipped to the blouse at the shoulder. Like the Kancheevaram, this sari usually forms part of a bride's dowry. The accompanying blouse is a cross front full sleeve, embroidered with Zardozi work. Don't miss the Ladkans or beads at the end of the Pallu.
