The thing about sarees made in Orissa is that each region has its own distinctive style. The ones from Bomkai handlooms, like the saree on this page, are a rage in the region. Woven from pure homegrown cotton, it conforms to the usual pastel colour palette with black being the dominant one in this case. The same is set off by a thick, multi-panelled border of red, black, and white with hints of gold. Booties of matching colours grace the statement-making endpiece of this number. Not only is the Indian cotton fabric soothing to the skin, but it also makes for a seductive drape.
