Masaba Gupta is one of India's new generation of fashion designers and her label 'Masaba' is very popular with a young clientele. Unlike traditional saris which are woven as one piece of fabric, Masaba's saris are stitched together from different types and textures of fabric to create a single piece. In this sari she has combined red raw silk with black netting that has been unified with a bold white silk border across the entire length. The red silk has been printed with a pattern of Masaba's own hand-print, and is a reminder of her chilhdood games playing with hand-printing. When wound around the figure, the black netting sweeps across the top half of the body - its transparency ensures that the white silk blouse underneath is visible.
