Friends, adda, saris and a bridal shower

Chaity Kakima in Dhakai Muslin the Bengal gossamer
If Punjabis can dance then Bengalis can organise impromptu cafe ambience anywhere anytime. And as it was a wedding shower it meant loads of adda with loads of dressing up.
Rimi in orange mangalgiri, Bride in pink tasar, Subhadra and Debaroti the bridesmaids were in handloom saris known as khesh.
Bidisha refused to wear sari for the bridal shower so she is in a kutchi Kurta from Gujarat and yours truly in a rare hand made batique made by my Mom-in-law.
Some of the gang at the weekly flee market at Sonajhuri, Santiniketan. Yasmin in hand painted handloom sari on left and me in khesh.

Tomali and the bride-to-be - share a photogenic moment.
