Kasavu Weaving August 24, 2020 Kerala Saree, commonly known as the Kasavu saree, is the traditional wear for women in Kerala. These sarees can be further classified as Kerala Set-Saree, Set-Mundu, Neriyath, Kavani, Kasava etc. These are crafted mainly at Kuthampully of the Thrissur district in Kerala. The term kasavu actually refers to the zari used in the border of the Kerala sari and not the sari itself. It is the name of a material used in the manufacturing process. Kasavu Weaving Kasavu saree is crafted mainly by the Devanga Chettiar community which belongs to Mysore. The artisans of this community had shifted their looms to Kuthampully years ago, for weaving for the Raja of the Kochi Palace. About 2000 people of this community have continued this traditional craft. Kerala or Kasavu saree is a single piece of cloth, whereas traditional mundum neriyathum is of a two-piece fabric. It is the cultural costume of the Malayali community, embellished with the beauty and charm of the golden borders and coupled with the plain white mundum neriyathum. It is believed that the mundum neriyathum was draped with the neriyathu that was tucked inside the blouse. The coloured strip at the border is referred to as Kara. Previously the colour of the blouse determined the age and the marital status of the woman. The young spinster girls wore the green colour, and the married middle-aged mothers adorned red colour. Kasavu (golden border) is generally pure gold, copper coated or artificial thread. It is found that mostly the simple line designs adorn the bottom of the saree whereas the small peacock or temple artforms are ornamented on the pallu. Today, the kerala kasavu saree has become the tradition and trademark highly practised in Kerala worn especially during the auspicious occasions. The golden borders i.e the kasavu has been replaced by different kinds and colors of Zari and the designs which represent the tradition and culture have been transformed in a reshmi style to enhance the appeal of the sari. The designs woven on the kasavu saree revealed the cultural and traditional aspect of women of kerala..

Message froM PRESIDENT Dear Rotaractors, Warm Rotaract Greetings from Rotaract Club of Thane North (RID 3142- India) We are glad sharing an editorial space with you and find great pleasure introducing the Traditional attire of our country. As you know India is a diverse country and has 29 states and 7 union territories. Every state has their own diverse language and traditional attire. We even have diversity in religion maximum people following Hinduism and the rest being Islam, Christianity and Sikhism; leave aside the other tribes which have their own traditional attire. Living in such a diversified country it is difficult to write about the entire traditional clothing, but here I will just try giving you a glimpse of the same. For men, traditional clothes are the Achkan/Sherwani, Bandhgala, Lungi, Kurta, Angarkha, Jama and Dhoti or Pajama. Additionally, recently pants and shirts have been accepted as traditional Indian dress by the Government of India. In India, women's clothing varies widely and is closely associated with the local culture, religion and climate. Traditional Indian clothing for women in the north and east are saris worn with choli tops; a long skirt called a lehenga or pavada worn with choli and a dupatta scarf to create an ensemble called a gagra choli; or salwar kameez suits, while many south Indian women traditionally wear sari and children wear pattu langa. Saris made out of silk are considered the most elegant. Mumbai, formerly known as Bombay, is one of India's fashion capitals. In many rural parts of India, traditional clothes is worn.

Study & Documentation of Balaramapuram Sarees & Fine
Study & Documentation of Balaramapuram Sarees & Fine Cotton fabrics: The Pride of God’s Own Country Textiles Committee Ministry of Textiles Government of India Mumbai Chapter I History of Handlooms 1.1 Handloom weaving in South India The Handloom weaving has been an industry of prime importance for centuries in India. The seventeenth and eighteenth centuries were a period of unquestioned prosperity, whereas the nineteenth and twentieth centuries have seen certain significant changes in the structure and organization of this industry. A number of historians have documented the production and trading systems pertaining to handloom cloth in earlier centuries. The Coromandel Coast as a whole and Masulipatnam fabrics in particular had achieved world-renowned name in the history of handlooms. It is well established that production was not only for an insular rural market, but also catered to a sizeable export demand. For example, the chintz or checked rumalls of Masulipatnam were in great demand not only in India, but also in Persia and Europe. Muslins and calicos too were important items of production and formed a significant component of trade. It was this textile trade that the British sought to control in South India. It has been observed that while local merchants used to link weavers with the export market earlier, “as deliberate colonial policy the English sought to use their power to alter the conditions of production of handloom textiles and to transform existing relations between producers and middlemen” (Arasaratnam, 1990:190). This gave rise to major alterations in the organization of production itself. Rather than deal directly with weavers themselves or use the existing marketing intermediaries, the East India Company appointed ‘Gumasthas’ as mediators in the process of accessing cloth.
