SAREE, SINDOOR, AND A STORY IN RED
September 30, 2025
|Hindustan Times Patna
Ever wondered what the traditional Bengali red saree is called? From Durga Puja pandals to runways, the laal paar is at the forefront of Bengali fashion. Here's all you need to about the iconic drape
Durga Puja season brings back the unmistakable fragrance of shiuli and the sight of women draped in the classic laal paar saree, a white weave edged with a bold red border.
Rooted in Bengal’s handloom legacy, the saree was once woven in breathable cotton for the state’s sultry climate. The symbolism is as striking as the palette: white for purity, red for fertility, strength, and the divine feminine. And the iconic Bangla drape stands for the absolute core of the Bengali woman's identity, history, and traditions through the years.
