Descripció de l’editorial
The word “sari” means “strip of cloth” in Sanskrit. But for the Indian women—and a few men—who have been wrapping themselves in silk, cotton, or linen for millennia, these swaths of fabric are more than just simple garments. They’re symbols of national pride, ambassadors for traditional (and cutting-edge) design and craftsmanship, and a prime example of the rich differences in India’s 29 states.
This book has come out after a constant search for details related to Indian traditional saris and with the experience of the author dealing with these saris as a buyer and merchandisers. This is the first volume of the series. In this volume a total of seventeen saris from different parts of India are presented.
