Come festive season, most of us reach back into the corners of our closets to find winning ethnic outfits for all the upcoming events on the calendar. While kurtas, lehengas and shararas are sure to make a statement, don’t forget to include another versatile, time-tested silhouette in your sartorial line-up either—the sari. Look towards embroidered saris to make the most impact with minimal thought. From Diwali cards parties to home pujas with the family, these six yard staples will take you everywhere you need to go with ease.

From chikankari and mukaish to subtle hand embroidery along the border, there are plenty of options to choose from. If you love bright hues, Anju Modi has a canary yellow sari on offer that may just be perfect for you. Prefer pastel shades? Pick between Anita Dongre’s and Kanelle’s soft pink saris, both of which feature floral embroidery. Those looking for understated elegance, go for white or neutral shades with Torani and Manish Malhotra’s embroidered saris. Looking for something for an evening cocktail? Sana Barreja’s midnight blue draped ensemble fits the bill just right. Scroll ahead for our edit of the best embroidered saris you can invest in for festive season.
