Sarees come in variety of colors, patterns, designs, and materials. Also the price for sarees can be from US $5 to a few thousand US$. The price range depends upon material and designer. Choosing a color for your saree often depends upon the occasion. For weddings, brides usually wear red or hot pink saree with many golden color details attached to it.
Most of Indian women wear sarees. My host mother needed a couple minutes to fix it and look amazing! Trying it for the first time was not easy. It took me more than ten minutes, and in the end I needed someone to help me out with putting it on. However, just like anything else I needed a bit of practice and after a few times I became more faster and more comfortable with putting it on. I am not an expert, but am able to fix it for myself.
Wearing a saree is as comfortable as wearing a dress. The only difference is putting it on and making sure it does not unfold. Indian women wear it throughout the year, since the temperatures never get too low. The photo below is taken in a saree shop at the local market in Udaipur, Rajasthan.
