Chettinad,
in the Sivaganga district of Tamil Nadu, is famed for its unique Chettinad
sarees. The distinguishing features of the Chettinad saree are its seemingly
heavy look and the striking colours that are achieved through a deft
combination of stripes, checks and colour contrasts. The heaviness is
attributed to the historical fact that the saree was worn without other accompaniments
and in a different way from what is prevalent today.Records and old photographs show the use of this
sari by previous generations, before the advent of blouses and underskirts,
worn rather differently from the regular sari.
The saree was also said to be of
shorter length than the conventional one, exposing the anklet portion of the
wearers. The modern Chettinad saree
still maintains rudiments of its original version, but has been suitably
modified to meet current day needs of the saree-wearers.Both silk and cotton are used as base
fabric materials and the hallmarks of thickness and huge ‘kandanghi’ borders
are merged with trendy colourful designs and embroidery to create the elegant
'Chettinad magic'.
