2. Fawn sari with zari work, enhanced with floral, ornamental and paisley print.

3. Teal blue cotton sari detailed with abstract zigzag print and zari woven border.

4. Purple green cotton and silk Bengal handloom saree with jamdani woven work.

5. Hot pink kota sari designed with zari, nalki, gota lace and patch work border.

6. Chikan is a popular form of hand embroidery in India. Chikan saris have work all over the fabric and enhance the beauty and elegance of the sari.

7. Chanderi sari: For a regional touch to your ethnic look drape this off-white and red art chanderi silk, jacquard and art chanderi half and half designed with paisley print zari patch-work border. Perfect for parties.
