#SareeTwitter It is time for some #SareeTrivia. Do you know why the pallu of the Nivi Sari drape is on the left shoulder and not on the right? Cozy up with some chai or the drink of your choice. This history will blow your mind. #SareeTwitter #SareeHistory
The pallu is on the left shoulder as the person who invented the Nivi drape was right handed. She needed her right hand available for work, and handshakes. Therefore the pallu of the Nivi drape is on the left. Simple! So who invented the Nivi drape? #SareeTwitter #SareeHistory
Jnanadanandini Devi Tagore (JDT), wife of Satyendranath Tagore, and sister-in-law of Rabindranath Tagore is credited with the creation of the now Nivi drape. When and why did she have to invent a drape? #SareeTwitter #SareeHistory
