A sari
(also spelled saree) is the traditional garment worn by many
women in the Indian subcontinent. The garment is known by
different names in various Indian languages; in Hindi, Gujarati
and Marathi, it is known as Saadi; in Kannada as Seere; in
Telugu as Cheera and in Tamil as Podavai.The sari is long strip
of unstitched cloth, ranging from five to nine yards in length,
which can be draped in various styles. The most common style is
for the sari to be wrapped around the waist, with one end then
draped over the shoulder. The sari is usually worn over a
petticoat (called lehenga/Ghagra in northern India and Pavada/Pavadai
in the south) and a low-cut, short-sleeved, midriff-baring
blouse known in north India as a choli.The sari is known not
only by different names in various parts of the country, but it
is also conceived differently in form and structure, in usage
and custom. It is a stretch of fabric that becomes long or
short, wide or narrow according to who wears it and the way in
which it is worn. There is infact no one type of sari.
A long strip
of colorful multi-patterned cloth, sensuously wrapped
around the body, and teemed with a blouse! Is this not
how sari, the traditional clothing of the womenfolk in
India, is often described to people newly exposed to our
culture? Saree is, indeed, a very long strip of
unstitched cloth, which is worn over a similar colored
petticoat. Its length ranges from four to nine meters,
depending on how an individual wants to wear the sari.
The blouse worn with it is also known as Choli or Ravika.
The most common style of wearing a sari is by draping
its one end around the waist and neatly arranging the
other over the shoulder baring the midriff. However,
there are many variations in how women wear this dress
in different states of India. There can also be a lot of
variation in the designs of the choli i.e. the blouse of
the saree. For instance, for daily wear, the blouse can
be a normal one with quarter or short sleeves.
Sleeveless or embroidered blouses are worn to give a
dressy feel.
Similarly, for occasions like wedding and parties, some
Indian women also wear backless or halter-neck blouses
with their sari. Though you will see women wearing such
blouses with their sari only at select upmarket places,
it gives a very glammed up Indo-western look. Women in
the armed forces don the sari with a half-sleeved shirt
tucked in at the waist. Occasion is the main criterion
that decides the style in which you wish to wear your
sari.
Saree is a very popular form of clothing in India. So,
one will find various type of the clothing being sold in
the market. Infact, every state of India excels in
manufacturing a certain type of sari. Thus, you will
find plain or patterned georgette saris, heavily golden-zari
embroidered zardozi saris, silk sarees with heavy pallu,
and so on.

Origin & History ||
|
|
|
The word 'sari' is believed to derive from the Sanskrit word 'sati', which means strip of cloth. This evolved into the Prakrit 'sadi' and the sound later decayed into 'sari'.
Some versions of the history of Indian clothing trace the sari back to the Indus valley civilization, which flourished in 2800-1800 BCE. One ancient statue shows a man in a draped robe which some sari researchers believe to be a precursor of the sari.
Ancient Tamil poetry, such as the Silappadhikaram and the Kadambari by Banabhatta, describes women in exquisite drapery. This drapery is believed to be a sari. In the Natya Shastra (an ancient Indian treatise describing ancient dance and costumes), the navel of the Supreme Being is considered to be the source of life and creativity. Hence the stomach of the dancer is to be left unconcealed, which some take to indicate the wearing of a sari.
Some costume historians believe that the men's dhoti, which is the oldest Indian draped garment, is the forerunner of the sari. They say that until the 14th century, the dhoti was worn by both men and women.
Sculptures from the Gandhara, Mathura and Gupta schools (1st-6th century CE) show goddesses and dancers wearing what appears to be a dhoti wrap, in the "fishtail" version which covers the legs loosely and then flows into a long, decorative drape in front of the legs. No bodices are shown.
Other sources say that everyday costume consisted of a dhoti or lungi (sarong), combined with a breast band and a veil or wrap that could be used to cover the upper body or head. Some argue that the two-piece Kerala mundum neryathum (mundu in malayalam is the same as dhoti or sarong and neryath means a cloth to cover the upper body similar to a shawl) is a survival of ancient Indian clothing styles, and that the one-piece sari is a modern innovation, created by combining the two pieces of the mundum neryathum.
It is generally accepted that wrapped sari-like garments, shawls, and veils have been worn by Indian women for a long time, and that they have been worn in their current form for hundreds of years.
One point of particular controversy is the history of the choli, or sari blouse, and the petticoat. Some researchers state that these were unknown before the British arrived in India, and that they were introduced to satisfy British ideas of modesty. Previously, women only wore the one, draped cloth and casually exposed the upper body and breasts. Other historians point to much textual and artistic evidence for various forms of breastband and upper-body shawl.
It is possible that the researchers arguing for a recent origin for the choli and the petticoat are extrapolating from South India, where it is indeed documented that in some areas, women wore only the sari and exposed the upper part of the body. Poetic references from works like Shilappadikaram indicate that during the sangam period in ancient South India, a single piece of clothing served as both lower garment and head covering, leaving the bosom and midriff completely uncovered. In Kerala there are many references to women being topless, including many pitcures by Raja Ravi Varma. Even today, women in some rural areas do not wear
cholis.
