ð¥»Yesterday, I visited an exhibition of the new brand âMrinaliniâ. Mrinalini is a platform that supports handloom weavers with the aim of preserving traditional Indian crafts.
The beautiful lady in the first photo, who looks great in a saree, is the co-founder of the company, Yashodhara. The venue was filled with “works of art” by skilled artisans from all over India.
There are lots of sarees here and there made with my favorite technique! Touch, Spread, Stare, Admire….Whenever I see the beautiful textiles that feels good, I want to spread them out and swim in it.ðââïžð
There were many different types of textiles, such as Ikat from Andhra Pradesh, Chikankari (embroidery) from Lucknow, Banarasi silk from Varanasi, Bandhani (tie & dye) from Gujarat, and Jamdani from West Bengal.
Among them, “Ikat, woven by the traditional Cambodian technique” and “Jamdani,” which is as light as a feather with colorful birds and flowers woven into it, are outstanding!!
The sarees were quite reasonable since they were purchased from artisans. As a consumer of sarees for the past 16 years, I have seen the evolution of the saree market, and I understand it pretty well.ð
Before the pandemic, I used to give seminars on “Indian Textiles and Sarees” to Japanese people living in Bangalore. After the lecture, the participants could try on my sarees.
By trying on different sarees, they were able to get an idea of what sarees tend to look good on them. I also often organised âSaree shopping tourâ for them. In the future, I will be able to give tips on how to choose and wear sarees to the “younger generation” of Indian women who are not used to wearing sarees.ð
