The pallu, the loose end of a saree typically draped over the shoulder, holds great significance in saree-wearing tradition. Also commonly referred to as the head piece, it serves both aesthetic and functional purposes. Aesthetically, the pallu often features intricate designs, embroidery, or embellishments, highlighting the saree's craftsmanship and adding visual appeal. Functionally, it helps secure the saree, adding balance and keeping the drape in place. Culturally, the pallu can signify modesty, respect, and social status, with variations in draping styles reflecting regional and cultural identities. Ultimately, the pallu is an essential element that enhances the saree's elegance and meaning. If you'd like to learn different ways to drape a pallu, subscribe to Tia Bhuva's channel on Youtube!
