I was decisive about getting myself a sari to wear for my graduation. I didn't think I would ever again get an opportunity to wear this gorgeous traditional Indian women's dress, so I took it!
In Rishikesh Market the streets are lined with different sari stores. As you enter one, you take a seat and someone helps you to find the fabric of your liking. This usually involves piles and piles of unfolded silks and cotton layers at your feet. After choosing one, you then get measured and the fabric is tailored exactly to fit you.
I found the PERFECT fabric at the smallest and warmest of stores. To be continued at my graduation pictures...
Eve, myself, and a pile of sari fabric. |
