Most Indian saris are five to six meters long. Saris are woven with one plain end (end that is hidden within the film) two long decorative borders along the entire length of the sari, and a section of one to three feet at the other end which continues and develops over the decoration. This end is called Falu is the part thrown over the shoulder in the Nivi style of draping. It is one of the most visible of the sari and is woven and decorated "for show."

More expensive saris had developed ornament geometrical, floral or figurative created on the loom, as part of the fabric. Sometimes, the warp and weft are dyed tissues and creating beautiful wedding designs baluchari. Sometimes, the son of different colors were woven into the fabric base structure – a border decorated an elaborate Falu and often, small repeated accents in the same fabric in different qualities of silk, cotton, crepe georgette, chiffon, etc. These accents are called mounds or Bhutta (spellings vary). For luxury saris, these patterns could be made of gold or silver son, called Zari work. Modern Zari work is usually done in bright fibers instead of real gold or silver wire (made by wrapping gold or silver wire around a nucleus).

Sometimes the saris were also decorated, after weaving, with all kinds of embroidery works.

Some versions of the history of Indian clothing trace the sari back to the Indus Valley civilization, which flourished in 2800-1800 BC. An ancient statue shows a man wrapped in a dress Some researchers believe it is a precursor sari sari.

Ancient Tamil poetry, such as by Banabhatta Silappadhikaram and Kadambari, describes women in the curtains exquisite. The curtains are considered a sari. In the Natya Shastra (an ancient Indian Treaty describing ancient dance and costumes), the navel of the Supreme Being is considered as the source of life and creativity. Hence the stomach of the dancer is left unconcealed, which some take to indicate the port of sari.

Sculptures from the Gandhara, Mathura and Gupta schools (1st century-6th AD) show goddesses and dancers wearing what appears to be a dhoti wrap, in the queue "big" version that covers your legs slightly and then goes into a long decorative curtain in front of the legs [1]. No bodices are shown.

Other sources say that everyday costume consisted of a dhoti or Lungi (sarong), combined with a breast band and a veil or wrap that could be used to cover the torso or head. Some argue that the two pieces neryathum Mundum Kerala (mundu in Malayalam is the same as dhoti or sarong and neryath means a cloth to cover the upper body as a shawl) is a relic of the clothing styles of ancient India, and a one-piece sari is a modern innovation, created by combining the two pieces of neryathum Mundum.

It is generally accepted that wrapped sari-like garments, shawls, and veils have been worn by Indian women for a long time, and have been used in form today, hundreds of years.

It enables researchers to argue for a recent origin for the Choli and saya are the extrapolation of South India where it is, in fact, shows that in some regions, women wore only the sari and exposed the upper body. Shilappadikaram works as poetic references indicate that during the period Sangam in ancient South India, a garment is used as garment down and cover the head, chest and belly, leaving the completely exposed. In Kerala there are many references to women who were topless, including many pitcures by Raja Ravi Varma. Even today, women in some rural areas do not wear cholis.
