Looking for something more festive? Perhaps, you could try this beautiful checkered green saree in Jamdani weave. Note the little flower-patterned all over the saree and the gold detailing on the border. It’s a nice pick to steer clear off all the oh-so-heavy, ornamental ethnic wear which weighs you down. Dare to take the linen route this season and look fresh as a flower in this one!
