A saree, also known as a sari, is a traditional garment worn by women in the Indian subcontinent. It is a long, unstitched piece of fabric, typically ranging from 4 to 9 meters in length, which is draped around the body in a variety of styles. Sarees are often made from silk, cotton, or synthetic fibers, and can be decorated with intricate designs, embroidery, or embellishments.
Sarees have been worn in India for centuries, and there are many different ways to drape them, depending on the region and occasion. The most common style is the Nivi style, in which the saree is wrapped around the waist and then pleated and tucked in at the front. Other popular styles include the Gujarati style, the Bengali style, and the Kodagu style.
