Panetar Sarees: Traditional Bridal Sarees From Gujarat

Ours country India that boasts of diverse cultures

. Every region of our country harbors its own set of ethnic and regional rituals and practices. This is even more prevalent when it comes to weddings and marriages. In spite of the majority of population belonging to the same religion, different parts of our country perform and celebrate weddings in ways that are strikingly different from each other.

This difference can be spotted even in the bridal outfit. While many regions consider red as the traditional colour of a bridal outfit and stay as far away as possible from the colour white, few parts of India consider white as their traditional color for bridal outfits.

Gujarat is one such state which boasts of white sarees as the traditional bridal sarees . These sarees are known as Panetar sarees. Basically, Panetar sarees are white or off white rich silk sarees with contrast red or maroon borders and pallu. They resemble the traditional white and red Bengali sarees a lot but since being bridal sarees, Gujarati Panetar sarees are obviously more embellished and gorgeous. These bridal Panetar sarees are usually gifted to Gujarati or Jain brides and they add an immense traditional touch to the religious rituals of any Gujarati nuptials. This single most important saree of any Gujarati bride could be made of any fabric based on personal preference and the stipulated budget. Even though silk is almost always the first choice, many also prefer their traditional Panetar sarees to be in organza or tissue. All the traditional bridal Panetar sarees flaunt ornate resham and zari embroidery embellished with kundans, sequins, beads, zardozi, etc. Panetar sarees come with contrast red or maroon embellished blouse, similar to the shade of the border and pallu of the saree.
