Description

Silk fabrics were meant for the rich and powerful in India since the ancient times. Ancient texts and mythological tales tell us that for a long time, silk fabrics were specially cultured and developed for the use of the royalty. Times have changed, and anybody who can buy silk products can use them without reservation. However, silk still remains one of the most sought after and expensive fabrics and even now, most of the common masses cannot afford silk fabrics.

Silk fabrics are valued chiefly due to their luster and drapability. It is used not only in garments, but also in draperies, ribbons and head gear.

India has been cultivating silk moths and producing silk since the ancient times. The fabric is derived from the cocoon formed by the caterpillar of the silk moth. The caterpillar feeds on mulberry leaves and forms the cocoon by a single thread of silk which is its saliva. This strand of silk is later unwound and converted into a usable thread. Production of silk in this process is known as sericulture.

Among the silk garments worn in India, the most famous is undoubtedly the silk sari. Sari is the most common outfit for Indian women and silk saris have a special meaning for women of all social status.
