“Jahan mitti ki khusboo se hoti hai kisi shagun ki shuruwat, wahi pe likhi jati hai is kala ki katha-Ye hai Benaras.”

Tracing the History of Banarsi Fabric:

The Banarasi fabric is considered as one of the popular fabric in Indian Fashion, as it bestows any culture with its richness and royalty. Be it weddings, traditional customs or any Indian ethic celebration, Benarasi Sarees, Kurtas and other ethnic wears pre-dominate the fashion culture.

However, there are many such Indian traditional fashion fabrics like Kanjivaram and Khadi.

This Banarasi saree is not only making waves in the Indian fashion industry but also in the international fashion world. 

So, from where did this social transformation took its plight and how it made its passage into Indian fashion? You will get to know everything as we keep on unfolding the legacy.

When it comes to sarees, the history of Indian sarees dates back to the Hindu mythology of Ramayana in the 1000 to 300 B.C. and in the Buddhist Scriptures in the first millennium. Banarasi silk sarees was then introduced to India by the Mughal Empire with its intricate weaving and designing craftsmanship.

The saree today has a mixture of two different cultures, the Mughals and Indian. In the olden days, silk for this saree was imported from China; nowadays the silk is sourced from the Southern parts of India. 

Indian sarees are divided into two broad categories the traditional bridal and the designer segment. Banarasi sarees are bridal sarees that are very popular because of their various textures, colours, and designs.Originally crafted exclusively for the royalty, each Banarasi sari was then created from real gold and silver threads, taking as much as a year to make.

Today, the threads have been replaced with coloured gold and silver threads. This famous saree has eye-catching patterns and shades woven on a handloom and shipped all over the world.
