Performed twice, the 15-minute showcase transported audiences through the journey of Indian Cinema, draping its history one saree at a time. With each sequence set to music from different cinematic eras, the runway became a moving celebration of nostalgia, artistry, and the timeless elegance of the saree. The show invited IFFI delegates and film personalities to revisit India\u2019s cinematic evolution through its most iconic attire of Saree. From the fluid drapes of the 1940s to the bold, experimental silhouettes of the 2020s, the red carpet came alive with legendary moods, muses, and memories, all recreated through six yards of handloom heritage. Each swirl and pleat mirrored the progression of Indian cinema, bringing back the era of graceful heroines, the rebellious 70s, romantic 90s, and the contemporary age of glamour. More than 40 handloom sarees, sourced from different parts of the country, such as Tussar silk from Chhattisgarh, Ikat Pashmina Saree from J&K, BanarasiButidar Saree &MubarakpurLachchaButaSaree from Uttar Pradesh, Chanderi from Madhya Pradesh, Gheecha silk from Chhatisgarh, Venkatagiri Saree from Andhra, Kuthampully Saree from Kerala were showcased through the fashion show.

Speaking about the fashion show, Prakash Magdum, MD NFDC said \u201cIFFI has always been a platform that celebrates creativity in all its forms. This year, hosting a handloom-led fashion showcase on the main red carpet highlights India\u2019s cultural depth and the powerful intersection of cinema and craftsmanship. \u2018Sarees in Motion\u2019 beautifully captured the essence of India, innovative, rooted, and globally resonant. We are proud to support initiatives that honour our artistic legacy while inspiring new narratives.\u201d Speaking on the occasion, Dr. M Beena, Development Commissioner (Handlooms) said, \u201cRooted in tradition, Saree is a fashion statement and a philosophy- a philosophy of artistry, a philosophy of rural livelihood. Through IFFI, which celebrates cinema in the most glamorous way, we wanted to present our attire and the work of our weavers, artisans, and creative traditions before the global audience. \u2018Sarees in Motion\u2019 is our tribute to India\u2019s heritage, its timeless elegance, and the spirit of Vikas Bhi, Virasat Bhi\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
