The festive season is when a saree stops being just clothing and becomes a memory — the drape you wear for Bonalu and Varalakshmi Vratam, the silk you save for Bathukamma and Dasara, the heirloom you unfold for Diwali and the wedding invitations that follow. At Sri Manisha Sarees, we have been part of these moments in Hyderabad since 1997, and every festive season we curate our looms and our racks so there is something perfect for everyone in the family.
This year we have put together our widest festive collection yet — pure silk sarees, handloom cotton, designer dress materials, fabrics by the metre and festive home textiles — all under one roof at our Abids store and online at srimanishasarees.com. Here is your complete guide to dressing for the season.
Why the festive season deserves a special saree
A festival saree does more than complete a look. The right weave photographs beautifully in festive light, drapes gracefully through long pujas and functions, and — when it is genuine handloom — becomes something you pass on. Value, for us, is never just the lowest price; it is the right saree at an honest, factory-direct price.
Pure silk sarees for festivals & weddings
Our handloom silk saree collection is where the festive season truly comes alive. Whether you want a statement drape for a wedding or a rich classic for Diwali night, our pure silk range covers every regional treasure:
- Pochampally ikat & Patola sarees — the pride of Telangana, GI-tagged and handwoven just 40 km from our store. Our double-ikat Pochampally patola sarees are festive showstoppers.
- Kanchipuram (Kanchivaram) silk sarees — the classic South Indian wedding saree, rich with temple borders and pure zari.
- Banarasi silk & Katan silk sarees — pure Katan silk Banarasi weaves with intricate zari buttis, made for festive grandeur.
- Paithani sarees — the Maharashtrian queen of silks, with its signature peacock and lotus pallu.
- Uppada Jamdani & Jamdani sarees — feather-light Uppada silks with delicate jamdani motifs, elegant for day and evening functions.
- Gadwal & Narayanpet sarees — Telangana classics with contrast silk borders, perfect for temple visits and festive gatherings.
- Bandhej (Bandhani) & Rajwada silk sarees — regal Rajwada-style and vibrant tie-dye Bandhej drapes that bring colour and celebration to any occasion.
- Nizami raw silk sarees — our own festive favourites in deep jewel tones of green, blue and red.

Handloom cotton & Garden Vareli sarees for festive day wear
Not every festive moment calls for heavy silk. For daytime pujas, festive office dressing and Hyderabad's warm weather, our handloom cotton sarees and Garden Vareli chiffon & crepe sarees are ideal. Think breathable Kalamkari cotton-linen sarees, hand-block prints and lightweight, wrinkle-resistant Garden Vareli drapes that carry you gracefully from morning rituals to evening celebrations.
Dress materials — unstitched, stitched & ready-to-wear
The festive wardrobe is not only about sarees. Our dress material collection gives you the freedom to create your own festive look:
- Unstitched dress materials — Pochampally, Kalamkari and batik salwar suit sets you can tailor to your fit.
- Stitched & ready-to-wear — ready-to-drape sarees and ready-to-wear ensembles for when you are short on time before a function.
- Custom stitching — bring us your measurements and we will help turn fabric into a festive outfit, blouse, kurti or lehenga.
From everyday festive suits to statement designer sets, there is dress material here for every member of the family.
Fabrics by the metre & festive home textiles
For brides, tailors and anyone planning a custom festive outfit, our fabrics by the metre include handloom silk and cotton yardage, ikat thaan, Kalamkari prints and zari-work silk — perfect for blouses, dupattas, kurtis and lehengas. And because festivals are also for gifting and refreshing the home, we carry handloom bed sheets and home textiles at our Abids store — thoughtful, made-to-last festive gifts for family and friends.
