Saree is not only a garment, it is an unbroken chain of tradition and cultures that have managed to survive till date. Being the oldest and probably the last unstitched garment from the past, it has witnessed thousands of years journey with ups & down. It was adopted and altered according to the need of the society at different geographical regions. Saree is, indeed, undoubtedly, one of the most glamorous and alluring all-time wear for Indian women.

The saree was adopted in Punjab as well with the beautiful form called Phulkari. Phulkari is the embroidery technique developed in the Punjab region.Phulkari is made up of two Punjabi words Phul, which means flower, and Kari which means Craft; Phulkari literally means floral craft, which was at one time used as the meaning for embroidery. But later the Phulkari became limited to embroidery shawls and head scarves. Gradually many garments with Phulkari came into existence, including simple and sparsely Odhini (head scarfs), dupatta and shawls, which were made for everyday use.
