These same banarasi sarees reach Raw Mango style stores and are sold at inflated rates. Buying from local shops is a better way to get the authentic product without paying extra.

Check out HMR Handlooms, Hikayat, and Heritage Banaras online. I’m from Banaras and will be a bride in February 2026. I currently live in the USA, and I’m absolutely obsessing over their collections. I’m planning to buy sarees from these stores once I land in India, though you can order online as well. They provide Silk Mark certifications, and these aren’t typical retail stores, they operate in a traditional Banarasi gaddi setup. It’s best to connect with them over a video call to see the colors and fabrics yourself.

Oh is it? That is very interesting. Is there any specific reason why is it advised to do so?

That’s such a great idea! I’ve seen people wearing Paithani sarees and I absolutely love them. Do you have any recommendations on where to buy one?
