Banarasi Silk Saree (As Seen on Raveena Tandon)

Raveena Tandon has long been one of Indian cinema's most eloquent wearers of the saree — a woman who understands that a great saree needs no explanation. The Banarasi Katan Silk she chose from Vidhi Singhania is exactly that kind of piece: a saree where the fabric itself is the statement, the weave the detail, and the drape the presence. Pure Katan Silk from the looms of Varanasi, in a colourway and design that is understated by Banarasi standards and extraordinary by any other.

Banarasi Katan Silk is woven from twisted silk yarn — the tightest and most structured of all Banarasi weaves — giving the fabric a body and sheen that no other saree quite matches. With age and wear, Katan Silk sarees develop a lustre and suppleness that makes them true heirlooms: pieces that get better the longer they are kept and worn.
