A Masterpiece Creation at Utsav

April 30th, 2008 by UTSAV

Utsav has its manufacturing hub in Jaipur – the pink city of India and the land of the Rajas or the kings. The ancient kings and the queens of India were very much fashionable. Their costumes were made by professional designers and skilled tailors. And their jewellery matched their clothing and moods. They chose their fine jewellery not only for adorning their looks but also to radiate the charisma of the gems embedded in jewellery and apparel.

In tune with our traditional and contemporary Indian fashion, we, at Utsav, have continued to imbibe the glamourous fashion style of the kings and the queens of India in our awesome collection of sarees, salwar kameez and lehenga cholis. With more than 20000 designs in our dresses, you can choose from the type of fabric – crepe, georgette, cotton or silk. Or you can select according to the type of work – embroidery or printed. And each one of our dresses is made to perfection by a team of skilled professional workers whose only objective is to make the customer, YOU, happy and satisfied.

We have more than 2000 collection of jewellery designs to match your attire. You can also choose and wear your favourite and lucky colour of jewellery for your auspicious occasion. Not only that; you can even call us or email us to have an exclusive jewellery set which nobody else but ONLY YOU would be the privileged owner. 

Being the manufacturer as well as the seller, Utsav have been able to listen and implement the specific requests of the customers. We have continued to create new designs which have kept us in the forefront of the competitive fashion industry. Many of the designs which we have for our privileged customers are not available in any fashion store or an online store. We have been winners in catering to the elegant tastes of fashionable women because our designs at Utsav are uniquely different and we do things differently.

Leonardo da Vinci painted his masterpiece “Mona Lisa” years ago. We continue to draw inspiration from his great work even now. Each creation of Utsav Sarees is a masterpiece.

Autobiography of an Indian Saree

April 28th, 2008 by UTSAV

Namaste! I am a simple saree,
the dress of an Indian nari*.
To express my clothing right,
I request a poet to gently write.

I am five meters in length,
the lady trusts my strength.
Be it the queen or the maid,
I shelter her though i fade.

I come in different fabrics,
lady tests before she picks.
I get rubbed and twisted,
then I hear I’m highly listed.

My owner is also clever,
says I’ll live not the liver.
The lady chooses her color,
buys me with full fervour.

I am worn in a marriage,
it is a heavenly carriage.
I am washed and pressed,
lade gets nicely redressed.

With dignity to lady’s race,
I protect her with grace.
I request the kind and wise,
to my lady, be her nice.

*hindi word for a lady.
