Sari and Kurta Pyjama

Sari is the traditional dress for the Indian ladies in Malaysia.It is a long piece of cloth wrapped around the wearer's body and shoulder in specific fashion.With skillful arrangement of the sari,the patterns and designs on the cloth will be displayed at the right place,whether in front,at the back,at the waist or on the sholuder.
Underneath the sari,the wearer put on a top and a petticoat beforehand,exposing the navel.One end of the sari is tugged inside the top of the petticoat and the other end is then thrown over the left shoulder and back to the left arm.Hence by strenching her left forearm,the wearer will be able to display the patterns on the sari,like a peacock displaying its tail.
The colours and designs of the sari is limitless,making it beautiful and graceful.
