What is the most appealing part of a saree? The color, the print, the pallu, or the border? While all these factors combine to create a great attractive saree, the saree border nonetheless is the most visible part, which accentuates the beauty of the saree. And if the saree is plain then the works on the blouse substitute the beauty of the saree brocade.
