Why is Burgundy a Very Popular Colour in Sarees?
Royalty is the very essence of the colour of burgundy and one of the reasons why it is such a versatile colour. It is much more mature than brighter reds, and because it can be worn by women of all ages, it suits many different types of women.

Silk (Including Banarasi Silk), Satin, Velvet, Chiffon, Georgette and Organza.
Silk and Velvet add to the royal nature of the burgundy colour; therefore, making them a perfect match for weddings and large events. Lighter fabrics (Chiffon and Georgette) give danburgundy a light, graceful drape to wear to evening parties and major festive events.
