Mirror work has been a speciality of West Indian clothing for ages now. Rajasthani women are often spotted wearing their attires with mirror work on them.

However, in Rajasthan, mirror work is not confined to just clothing; rather, mirror work is a part of life there. Be it footwear, bangles, accessories like a necklace or even homes wares, mirror work can be spotted almost everywhere, and one can never get enough of this beautiful design.

Using mirror work as the borders of sarees is yet another step towards modernizing sarees with a touch of culture. These borders give you a subtle yet sophisticated appearance and can be worn on any day time function.

These designs are made up of resham or Zari, and the choice of fabric used is Banarasi. Taking the legacy forward, celebs are often spotted wearing sarees with life-like borders. These borders give your saree a modern look and can be worn on any day-time functions.

7.Go bold with the velvet work

Emerge as the fashion diva amongst your friends with the opulent look of the velvet fabrics.

Using velvet in the borders of a saree is usually lighter than using velvet in the drape of a saree and also makes the woman look subtle and gorgeous. Pair up velvet borders with soft or see-through fabrics to get the best effect of sheer beauty. These velvet borders can also be coupled with embroidery work to give it a more ethnic look.
