Bengal

Bengal sarees, known for their lightweight cotton, trace their roots to Bengal’s Mughal-era weaving communities. Once prized for their fine muslin, these sarees evolved to symbolize cultural pride during the Bengal Renaissance. Worn by both commoners and aristocracy, Bengal sarees blend simplicity with artistic elegance, capturing the region’s intellectual and weaving traditions. Today, they are cherished for their connection to Bengal’s rich cultural history and heritage.
