10 Bengali Sarees To Have For Durga Puja
Durja Puja is a basically seen as time for worship and feasting. However, it is also a time when all the Bong beauties dress up in their best and go pandal hopping. All Bengali women buy new sarees for Durga Puja. Wearing new clothes is part of the tradition of this Puja. Especially certain types of Bengali sarees are in vogue during the Puja season.
These days, every thing including sarees are branded. That is why; the brand value of Bengali sarees increases when celebrities wear them. Many ladies hailing from Bengal are there in Bollywood. That is why; during Durga Puja we get to see many celebrities in Bengali sarees. Be it tant, Zamdani, baluchori or Dhakai, there is no dearth of variety when it comes to Bengali sarees.
If you are planning to stock up your wardrobe with sarees before Durga Puja then you should have these sarees on your wish list.
Tant
Tant is the most basic type of Bengali cotton. Tant sarees are stiffly startched and often easy to manage in the hot and humid climate of Bengal. Tant looks great when it is draped in the traditional style.
Dhakai Zamdani

Garad
