On Fleek , the Mundum Neriyathum from Kalyan Silks !

Today iam gonna write about the Mundum Neriyathum of  Kerala
The cultural female costume of Kerala

Originally this saree is called as "Mundum Neriyathum" and is traditional cotton handloom

Wearing the Culture
A Kerala women wear Mundum Neriyathum on the following occasions
1. Wedding day with Gold Border (Real Gold)
2. Temple Visit  with artificial gold border
3. Attending a relative/ friend's wedding
4. Onam and Vishu

I love to be "On Fleek"  meaning well groomed and love a wedding in Kerala Guruvayur.




Unmarried women wear green colour blouses and Married women wear red colour blouses
Celeberating the kerala cultural roots

At my Home
The Golden border is known as Kasavu
This golden border is made of Gold or Copper Plated


The lower part is known as Mundum and upper part is known as Neriyathum



Traditional kerala style Mundum Neriyathum can be purchased from Kalyan Silks Thrissur now also in Commercial street in Bengaluru.




While my mother is still interviewing potential grooms for marriage ; One of my dream is to buy my wedding "Mundum Neriyathum " from Kalyan Silks and get married in Guruvayur Sree Krishna Temple in Kerala. 
Although my younger sister chose to wear Kanjivaram Silk for her wedding ; i have decided to wear Kalyan Silks.
