The Nine-Yard Wonder- Saree is one of the most exquisite, graceful, and gorgeous presents of Indian craftsmanship that has been passed down through the ages. It has been bestowed upon the woman of yesteryears, today, and definitely the women of tomorrow.

With time, the worth and importance of the tradition of the saree and its designers are gradually melting away in obscurity in today's world, where westernisation has more or less taken over Indian fashion.
