This series celebrates the Indian saree and the intergenerational women who wear it. At more than 5,000 years of existence, it is considered to be among the oldest form of garment in the world. Wrapped in history and colour the saree is the most democratic clothing; it cuts across classes and castes, regions and religions.

Women say that is it is empowering to the female form; its one-size-fits-all style is wonderfully accepting about weight or body type. In the weave of the saree, a strong history, culture, collective consciousness and identity are all tied together in one garment.
