The Margazhi season hosts a plethora of joyful events to be excited about. It all starts with the early morning mist decorating the grass in the meadows. Until the bhajans take over at dawn, the chirpy birds exclaim on the vibrant rangolis adorning the front of houses. The streets are packed with vendors enthused about a season that cherishes their beautiful fruits and flowers. And the classical rhythm and notes, along with the aroma of authentic South Indian food invite everyone to the local musical sabhas.
Here are a few ways you can add to the festivities with your attire!
A Medley of Hues
Kanjivarams of contrasting combinations match the splashing colours strewn across streets and houses. You can go for the classics such as yellow-pink or green-maroon. On the contrary, you can also go for an off-beat colour combination like Aqua blue-purple.
The Raga of Kattams and Stripes
What better than the iconic kattams and stripes to convey the classical feel of Margazhi? These designs have been favoured by all women since the existence of Sarees. When paired with fresh jasmine and a hair updo, it slips right into the aesthetics of the cultural scene.
Theatricals of Kanchipuram Zari
Margazhi month also indicates the beginning of the winter season in India. It’s the best time to flaunt your Kanjivarams adorned with ample zari work. They glisten in the dramatic lights of the temples and sabhas.
Appreciation for Art
Kanchipuram Silks has always seen an upward trend in innovating, thanks to the weavers and artists across India. Wear the distinctive works of our Indian artisans as we enter a month devoted to valuing art and culture to show them the utmost respect.Â
Lastly, wear small Jhumkas to go with your sarees to enjoy and display gratitude for the music, dance, and some filter coffee.
