It demonstrates both elegance and simplicity, and can be produced by village workshops without the need for large factories. Many clothes, such as a lady&#8217;s sari and a man&#8217;s <em>dhoti<\/em>, are simply pieces of cloth and do not require tailoring. For women there is an emphasis on modesty rather than sexual allurement, and simple elegance, rather than fashion. Saris come in a whole range of regional styles, and are made from cotton, silk or nylon. There are different regional ways of wearing a sari, although the &#8220;<em>nivi<\/em>&#8221; style has become very popular recently.<\/p>\n<h3>Personal Reflection<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>What significance does dress have for us?
