Traditional Assamese sarees, known for their elegance and vibrant colors, are primarily made from silk, particularly Muga and Eri silk. These sarees often feature intricate designs and motifs inspired by nature, culture, and folklore, making each piece unique. The weaving techniques used in Assam are passed down through generations, showcasing the rich heritage of the region. One of the most famous styles is the Assamese Mekhela Chador, which consists of two pieces: the Mekhela, a wrap-around skirt, and the Chador, a draped shawl. These sarees are commonly worn during festivals, weddings, and cultural events, symbolizing the beauty and tradition of Assamese women.
