Types of Bengal Handloom Cotton Sarees to Celebrate Durga Puja In Style
The beauty and elegance of Bengal handloom sarees in Kolkata is unmatched. So, if you’re confused about what to wear this festive season, here’s a mini guide for you:
Tant Saree
Nothing is more Bengali than a tant saree! They are lightweight and nearly transparent with unique patterns. Saree-lovers know how ideal these sarees are for the hot and humid weather.
They can be soft, in colours that remind one of the lal maati found in parts of Bengal, like the elegant Rangamati Cotton Handloom Tangail Saree. It can also have our stunning trademark mahapar border with kolka motifs, which makes the Kolka Durga Lal Mahapar Soft Tangail Saree perfect for Durga Puja. Or it can be bright with a mesmerising colour story like the Mayuri Tangail Handloom Cotton Saree, which pairs well with our Maroon Golden Buti Jamdani Festive Blouse!
