Who doesn't swoon at the sight of a well designed saree? Look at the designs of Manish Malhotra, Masaba Gupta, Sabyasachi and Guarang Shah, just to name a few of the designers from India, and tell me their work is not extraordinary!
One designer I want to, no, love to shine the spotlight on is Guarang Shah, a self-taught designer that focuses on, well-deservedly, handwoven sarees. Shah, a self-taught designer, saw a need in the traditional handloom community. He took up the challenge to revive the art, and bring handweaves back into fashion. A bring them back into fashion he did!
Of course, this is the second time I have focused on Shah's sarees, and it looks like I need to purchase one for my wardrobe! So, the search is on for a Guarang.
I'm not going to waste time on words, let the pictures speak for themselves. And, don't hesitate to visit the Website, and if you live near a shop, please take a look for yourselves.
