Light as a feather ... Kota

If there is a saree oh so suited for summer, it has to be the airy and feather light Kota saree. It's signature - the checkered weave - looks like little windows in a saree, which gives you that breezy feeling.

Just like many other sarees, this one is also named for the town which made it famous - Kota in Rajasthan.
