Banarasi Sarees - Georgette

Banarasi Georgette sarees stand apart from traditional Banarasi sarees mainly because of the fabric and how they drape. Classic Banarasi sarees are typically woven from heavier silks like Katan or Satin. In contrast, Banarasi Georgette uses a lighter, semi-sheer silk weave with a slightly crinkled texture. This combination gives it a softer, more fluid drape, making it easier to wear for long periods or in warmer weather. Even though it is lighter, it still showcases the signature Banarasi craftsmanship, including zari work, meenakari, and the Kadua technique. This provides the richness of tradition along with the comfort of modern wear.

The Banarasi Georgette saree represents a unique blend of tradition and contemporary style. Each saree tells its own story, showcasing the distinct weaving techniques and craftsmanship involved. Made from pure silk georgette, these sarees offer both style and comfort, allowing for lightness and ease of movement. The intricate, handcrafted Zari designs pay homage to traditional craftsmanship while maintaining a minimalist aesthetic suitable for modern trends.

• 100% Pure Silk Georgette provides a luxurious feel that surpasses any synthetic blend. Handwoven with intricate motifs, each thread is carefully placed using traditional techniques, rather than printed or patched.
• Light and airy yet elegantly poised, this fabric is perfect for festivals, allowing the wearer to enjoy comfort throughout long celebrations. Timeless in design, it bridges heritage and modernity, maintaining its appeal across various occasions.
• Every saree is crafted with skill and purpose, ensuring fair wages and dignity for the weavers who work on traditional looms, adding true value to their efforts. These garments are meant to be cherished for years, embodying a slow fashion ethos.
• As treasures rather than trends, each saree deserves to be passed down through generations, allowing new wearers to connect with the intricate details and the spirit of those who wore it before them.

They should be regarded as heirloom-type sarees that deserve every bit of attention and respect from us.
1. Dry Clean Only:
The presence of zari in the handloom saree is so delicate that it is best to avoid home washing. Understandably, dry cleaners dealing with handloom fabrics should be preferred to home washing in preserving the delicacy of fabrics.

2. Store in a Way Where Air Passes Through:
Always wrap your saree in a soft muslin or cotton cloth, which ensures a breathable fabric and prevents dust accumulation and humidity. Never store in plastic envelopes or covers.

3. Outside Direct Sunlight:
Excessive sunlight dulls the lustre of the fabrics and damages the zari metallic foil given to it. Better keep it in a cool, dry place away from sunlight so that it retains the richest colours.

4. Avoid direct sprays on garments:
Perfume sprayed directly on the saree may stain or damage the delicate zari inlay. It is best to apply perfume before donning your saree.

5. Change the Folds Periodically:
To avoid permanent creases or stress on the fabric at the fold points, unfold the saree every few months and refold it differently.

More than just a piece of clothing, your Banarasi Georgette saree is a skillfully woven heirloom. Its lightweight texture and graceful drape benefit every season, celebration, and occasion that calls for subtle elegance. With careful attention, it will keep its charm and move naturally through time and tradition.
