The dress is simple to construct, easy to embellish, comfortable to wear and
beautiful for all figure types. It can be constructed using sari fabrics but
it is equally appropriate in cotton, linen or silk. This dress is necessary
for the performance of Khalidji-style dances, taught at this collegium by
Mistress Jadi.
